The Perfect Rescue ""8""
by Guest
Tried it out on my tallest chairlift tower, and it's very comfortable. Perfect descender for my belt-pack. Small and light. Probably would not work well w/large diameter ropes, and certainly not an everyday tool for riggers and such. But PERFECT for rescue kits, such as firefighters, ski patrol, or the occasional weekend repel for fun.
