Teufelberger treeMOTION® Pro X

We recently had two arborists trim the old oak tree in our back garden. Watching them work high up in the canopy, suspended by nothing but their harnesses, was awe-inspiring — and a clear reminder of just how vital safe, reliable gear is in this profession.

Since its debut in 2007, the treeMOTION® harness has earned a reputation as a trusted companion for arborists and tree care professionals. Now, with the treeMOTION® Pro X, Teufelberger has elevated the design even further, incorporating valuable feedback from the climbing community to enhance comfort, efficiency, and long-term durability.

Available in three sizes — Small, Medium, and Large — the treeMOTION® Pro X features sliding adjustable buckles and an ergonomic design suitable for all body types. It’s highly customisable to each climber’s preferences thanks to its adaptable shape and thoughtful construction.

The harness includes an openable side ring that allows for easy replacement of hip and leg connections, while the standard padding on the back and legs offers both comfort and breathability during long climbs. With four attachment points for chest or suspender compatibility and two bridge ropes — one longer, one shorter — climbers have multiple versatile attachment options for different techniques and scenarios.

Additional refinements include improved Velcro closures, better label placement, stronger gear stitching, and upgraded elastic bands and buckles. The hardware has been refined throughout, and the inclusion of a second bridge rope further expands its flexibility and functionality on the job.

Safety is non-negotiable, and the treeMOTION® Pro X meets or exceeds all major industry standards. These include EN813:2024, EN358:2018, ANSI Z133-2017, ASTM F887-23, CSA Z259.1-05, and AS/NZS 1891.1:2020. With this level of certification, arborists can climb with confidence.

Built with durability in mind, the harness boasts a 10-year lifetime from the date of production. Its longevity is further supported by the inclusion of ten replaceable parts, making it a sustainable and cost-effective choice for long-term use.

Whether you spend every day in a harness or only climb occasionally, the treeMOTION® Pro X is more than just equipment — it’s a reliable partner designed to keep you safe, supported, and comfortable. With its emphasis on safety, performance, and ergonomic excellence, this harness truly has your back.
