Hollis SMS Katana 2 Sidemount System
The Hollis SMS Katana 2 Sidemount System is the answer to the evolving sidemount only category that is more minimal, adjustable and versatile than any other harness
The Hollis SMS Katana 2 Single Sidemount sets a standard in sidemount diving. Designed in collaboration with Edd Sorenson from Cave Adventurers, we developed a unique “Quick Fit System”, which allows users to easily tailor the one-size-fits-all harness to their specific size or adjustment preference in a matter of minutes. We added more lift, more weight capacity, single and dual bladder options and the best quality materials Hollis has always been known for.
Katana 2 is also the first sidemount harness in the world to be designed with closed-circuit sidemount capability, with integrated mounts for the popular KISS sidewinder. Katana 2 breaks away from traditional designs and offers more customization and versatility.
BETTER DESIGN WITH MORE OPTIONS.
Complete kit. Unlike other harnesses, Katana includes a weight system and comes fully assembled, taking out the guesswork for beginner sidemount divers.
Add on the SMS Regulator kit – preconfigured with all the necessary DCX 1st and 200LX 2nd stages, LP and HP hoses, two brass SPG’s and regulator necklace.
Benefits of a shoulder dump
When diving multiple cylinders with stages or sidemount rebreather, reaching behind the wing is uncomfortable and in some cases impossible. The shoulder dump provides an easy to locate pull string and vents the majority of gas while still horizontal. This is unique on the Katana 2, since most other harnesses use a lower “butt dump”.
