Rock Bottom 90 Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 I have the newest version of the Schutt/Adams XV-HDX. I've read about how great the UmpLife harness is - does it improve this newest version of the XV-HDX significantly, or does this new version basically replicate the UmpLife harness benefits?

The latter. Of course, having an actual UmpLife RayFlex harness is the beez-kneez, and denotes as a hip'n'happenin' umpire... but the included "flex" harness on the XV-HDX is much better than what was there originally. It's made my retrofit unnecessary. I feel like the Maytag repairman. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe_man 945 Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 I really like Ray's harness, but I have to say I never replaced my HDX-XV harness as it fit me too well. I don't think it's worth a $36+ upgrade on a $60 CP in my honest opinion. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

COME ON! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
