I have just got a weight vest, which is adjustable.
I had forgotten how much it affects certain moves, like rock-overs are a little easier, as is any dynamic move (within reason) that involves swinging your hips into the wall, as the extra ballast seems to really help. Needless to say almost every basic move becomes harder.What's peoples opinion on the benefits of bouldering with belt v the downside of potentially altering technique etc?

Drew and I have the same one, but have only used it for exercises/routes, no boulderage. It is, indeed, bo.
