Designed for the zip line enthusiast who needs to climb a series of steps or ladder rungs to reach their launch platform. It's a bit intimidating to climb up ten or more feet without being tied to a rope to prevent you from falling. The Petzl Shunt Ascender can be attached to a safety rope allowing the rider to climb a ladder or steps without risk of falling. Should the rider slip or fall, friction is applied which acts just like a brake.

Note: Does not include Carabiner, Rope or string for retrieval.
