WINNER: CGG
This is the lightest harness Wild Country has ever made. Engineered specifically for sport climbing, its precise fit delivers super-lightweight comfort, agility and freedom of movement. The advanced, lightweight, laminated waistbelt construction features internal load-bearing webbing that distributes the load evenly across the entire harness structure, combined with super-light mesh padding and a robust, fast-drying and abrasion-resistant covering with seamless edges that is soft and smooth next to the skin.

The Mosquito is built specifically with freedom of movement in mind. Its sleek, stripped-down construction adapts to your body for full, unhindered, flexibility as you climb. An important stand-out safety feature is the wear indicator on the reinforced lower tie-in point – a feature used by Wild Country since the 1990s. To clearly indicate when it is time to retire the harness, it has red threads that only become visible after excessive wear and abrasion.
The Mosquito is equipped with lightweight gear loops: two rigid front loops, two softer back loops, to prevent pressure points when climbing with a pack. All gear loops are designed specifically to hold your gear and draws away from the harness for smoother retrieval. There is also a decent-sized rear haul loop that also doubles as a chalk bag attachment point.
With a self-locking, aluminium slide block buckle on the waistbelt to ensure a secure and comfortable fit plus lightweight, supportive leg loops with elasticated risers. The Mosquito packs down small and comes in a stylish, two-tone black and white design with a classic Wild Country tangerine orange buckle.

The question is about the weight for medium but the article gives the weight for XS. Is this a mistake?
It's a competition - go figure!
Without wishing to give the answer away, I can confirm that this was not a mistake.
* "Without wishing to give away the answer", I suspect that Wild Country would like you to spend 3 minutes with google rather than the customary 15 seconds with ctrl+f. I imagine the increased traffic helps them climb the google results ranking system.
Is this the start of things to come? Will future competitions require research to answer? At what point will the effort required to find the answer make too many people ignore the competition? Will the value of the prize affect this? Food for thought :)
Many thanks for your unneeded advice :)
