• Three different braking positions to choose from before beginning descent depending on the user's weight, the rope's diameter and the terrain.
• Two supplementary braking spurs allow friction to be increased during descent.
• A carabiner with a cross section of 12 mm (like an ATTACHE) provides a tight fit in the small hole, creating a rigid carabiner / descender unit:
  • stays securely attached to the harness during rope insertion, to help prevent loss
  • greatly reduces the risk of leverage on the carabiner gate (poor positioning).
• Designed to be used with the "Rapid" technique, which prevents the formation of a lark's head knot around the body of the PIRANA and reduces kinks in the rope, without decreasing braking friction.
