CLIMBING TECHNOLOGY TRICKY CONNECTOR SYSTEM WITH 35CM SLING

The Tricky from Climbing Technologies is a useful device for redpointing or aid climbing, allowing you to reach a far away piece of protection, bolt or anchor. Consisting of a specially designed carabiner, a semi-rigid 35 cm polyamide sling and CTs Fixit rubber to hold the carabiner securely and correctly oriented for hooking into pro at arms lengths. The Tricky carabiner has an integrated spring clip that is pulled out to securely retain the gate of the carabiner open allowing the carabiner to hook into out of reach protection then release smoothly closing the gate when the sling is tugged. Anyone familiar with a clipstick will recognise this technology. The sling has a large loop at the bottom for a carabiner (not included) to clip the rope into but also to grab easily when aiding. The sling is also flexible enough to bend to double up on a harness gear loop to make it easier to carry and not slap in the leg you as you climb. This system is much lighter, smaller, more convenient and easier to use than a clipstick, but won't give you the same reach. Perfect when size and weight is important or a great back-up if you might need to bail off a route urgently.
