The Petzl Ascension Ascender consistently delivers the highest performance, best ease of use and most functionality for the weight. It is the lightest full size handled ascender on the market.
Updated: New molded grip provides even greater comfort with a more ergonomically shaped handle. New chrome-plated steel cam with angled teeth and self-cleaning slot securely grips the rope, even in muddy or icy conditions. New trigger is recessed into the frame guarding it when ascending lower angled sections while maintaining the ability to open/close the cam with only one hand.
Excellent ergonomic handle makes for comfortable ascents, even when ascending several hundred feet. The plastic and rubber grip provides a sure hold and keeps hands from freezing or sticking in the cold. Designed to be operated with one hand for fast and easy use, even while wearing gloves.
