Description
The Stein Knee Ascender Kit is a practical climbing aid designed to make ascending easier and more efficient. Developed to work alongside a foot ascender, such as the STEIN DJANGO, this system supports smoother upward movement by capturing progress made during each step.
Moreover, the kit works effectively in both double rope systems (DRT) and single rope systems (SRT). As the climber advances using the foot ascender, the knee ascender follows and holds that progress. As a result, the system helps reduce effort and supports a more fluid climbing rhythm during ascent.
In addition, STEIN supplies the Knee Ascender Kit as a self-assembly system. Because every climber’s body size and climbing technique differs, this flexible approach allows users to set up the system to suit their individual needs. However, users should seek professional instruction before use and inspect all components regularly to ensure safe operation.
The Stein Knee Ascender Kit requires a STEIN CAMBO Foot Loop to complete the system. This product is not classified as PPE and must not be used as a personal protective device.
