SRT Rope Climbing Kit Upgrade

This kit contains everything needed to upgrade one of our rope climbing starter kits to be used in the Single Rope Technique (SRT) with ascenders. This is easiest rope climbing technique, and is preferable for long ascents. Kit contains hand ascender (left or right), foot ascender, foot strap, prusik, runner, figure eight, and quick links. Several climbing set ups are possible. A great value on great equipment! See below for full description.

This kit can be used in several configurations. The user climbs the line by shifting the weight from one ascender to the other, advancing the one that is not weighted at the time. This makes climbing a rope just like climbing a ladder, and is the most efficient way to climb rope, saving effort over secured footlock or body-thrusting methods.

The kit is supplied with a figure eight for descending, and a prusik as a backup.

Your kit will contain:

• Petzl Ascension Hand Ascender (right or left hand)
• Petzl Pantin Foot Ascender
• Ascender Foot Strap
• 7’ Technora Prusik Cord
• 23” Nylon Loop Runner
• Aluminum Figure 8
• 2 Quick Links
