Sure. There are always new saddles that get discussed in here, new handles on saws, etc. New designs that make our job easier or provide for less wear and tear on our bodies are of interest to those of us up in the trees everyday. Just go back through the old posts or watch for the new ones in here on your subject of interest.

check out New Tribe Saddles... the most comfortable work saddles I've ever worn. great prices too...

highly recommend dealing directly with New Tribe and get custom fitted. for a bit extra they will custom sew what ever custom goodies you want.

Are there any research papers that anyone knows of? Technique ergonomics study is what i want to know more about.

Google Paolo Bavaresco, he designed the TreeFlex is recovered from serious back issues and has a huge interest in arborist ergonomics, and his wife is a specialist in that stuff.
