Description

1. Simple to use :
   - Very easy to use; the rate of descent is controlled by varying the grip on the free end of the rope

   - Safety gate on the openable side plate allows the rope to be installed easily while the device remains connected to the harness, making it easier to pass intermediate anchors
   - Elongated connection hole allows the FREINO Z carabiner to be rotated to help prevent dropping the descender when transferred from gear loop to attachment point
   - Compatible with 8.5 to 11 mm diameter low stretch kernmantle ropes
3. Lightweight and compact :
   - Only 240 g
   - Includes two aluminum pulleys for reduced weight
