The Turbohand Pro ascender is the absolute top of the line for maximizing efficiency while ascending ropes. It features a roller which not only helps with climbing efficiency by making the upward glide much smoother, but also reduces dangerous wear and tear on the device where the rope tends to rub on the body of a traditional ascender. The removable rope guide at the bottom of the handle optimally aligns the rope for long ascents.
The ergonomic rubber handle extends into the upper part of the spine to allow fora double-handed grip. The handle and the rope are aligned on the same plane forthe best handling and efficiency. Features three large attachment points, two on thebottom and one at the top, for optimal organization. The stainless steel rope guidereinforces the main attachment point for increased resistance to wear and tear. It alsoprevents the carabiner from interfering with the rope.The robust body is constructed from 3.5 mm aluminum alloy and the toothed cam isfinished with a special anti-wear treatment and features drain holes to help preventthe build-up of mud and grit. The opening system is protected on both sides toprevent accidental openings.The roller also allows the Turbohand to be rigged as a locking pulley for light haulingwith a max load of 50 kg, 110 lbs. NOTE: This configuration is not intended for haulingor securing of bodies.
