An ideal bottom-of-the-pack solution for backcountry skiers, the ultralight and compact Petzl RAD (Rescue and Descent) System is a complete kit enabling crevasse rescue, rappelling and glacier travel.
Features
Kit includes 30m of RAD Line 6mm cord, 3 Sm'D screw-lock carabiners, 1 Tibloc rope clamp/grab ascender, 1 Micro Traxion progress-capture pulley and 1 St'Anneau 120cm sling
30m RAD Line is a flexible 6mm cord with rough-textured sheath for excellent handling and descent control when rappelling, and to aid in braking when arresting a crevasse fall
Hyperstatic RAD Line has less than 2% elongation, facilitating rescue maneuvers and eliminating the yo-yo effect during rappels or fall arrest in a crevasse
Equipment is contained in a compact storage bag that's designed for easy access and quick action
Cord is folded for immediate use, eliminating risk of knots or twists
2 loops on the exterior of the pouch make it easy to attach it to your harness or inside your backpack
Sewn webbing loops on the top of the bag enable attachment of all components of the kit
