Question Weight Harness
I am tired of my weight belt slipping off my hips on the way down - i think the only option is a harness weightbelt.

Can anyone suggest a product?

I use the Northern Diver one.

There have been reports of variable quality, and I know a club member who ripped the handle off one of the weight pouches first time she used it, but mine must be in it's third season, and is fine.

I use Bowstone, only a couple of times but it is nice. Also know of a couple of people using the N Diver ones and they liked them.

Cheers

I got a Bowstone too after asking on YD. Comfy and there ain't no weight gonna 'fall' out of that thing during a dive and I got 15lb a side.

Got mine here: http://www.stemadiving.co.uk/s_42.asp?pro=192&c=80

Do you dive with a BCD or wing and how much weight do you use? If you use a wing these dive rite pockets could be an option. I use the 16lb version for my single rig and works a treat. Having used a harness in the past I found it very cumbersome.

Cheers,

Ian
