An ergonomic handled ascender for optimized rope climbing with one or two hands.
Ergonomic, comfortable handled ascender.
Ergonomics and comfort were priorities when designing the HANDS UP handled ascender. It is equipped with a reinforced grip area, making it more comfortable and practical. This design allows a two-handed grip during rope ascents: on the side under the trigger as well as on the top. The opening of the cam is facilitated by an ergonomic offset lever. This control mechanism is made entirely of metal for durability.
Designed to work with blockers and footloops.
The HANDS UP ascender handle is used in conjunction with the HOLD UP ventral ascender or any other rope ascender. The bottom hole is large enough to easily accommodate the AIR STEP footloop connector. The bottom attachment hole is also large enough to accommodate multiple carabiners and quick links.
Key features:
- Can be used to compliment the HOLD UP chest ascender or any other ascender for rope ascents
- Large lower attachment hole easily accommodates the connector for the AIR STEP foot loop.
- The ascender’s shape allows it to be held with two hands when ascending rope: one on the side beneath the trigger and one above it. The handle is reinforced to improve ergonomics and comfort.
- Large lower attachment hole can accommodate multiple karabiners and maillons.
- All-metal construction of the operating mechanism to increase durability
- An ergonomic protruding lever facilitates cam operation.
