Petzl Ascension Ascender - product reviews

My brief excursion into the technical climbing at the weekend brought me back to the fact that I have the new version of the mother of all the ascenders, the Petzl Ascension wanted to present.

I usually climb is technically not on purpose, asks the gentle reader and free climbers, what do I want with the terminal. My main use of the ascender is usually as a universal means of setting up routes in the hall. Did the clamp in the 5-day big wall is thus still out ... ;)

In the last year has proven its Petzl ascender, newly-German " . Ascender "missed a few improvements and now there are not more blue and gold in his hands, but silver and black of course, is the new color scheme is not the only innovation Petzl writes about himself.

Recent improvements inlcude:
- The Ascension's handle is now more comfortable
- the cam has been refined to increase the efficiency in Which the ascender glides on the rope
- increase the durability of these devices

More specifically, the ergonomics of the handle has been improved so that the hand held in the pulling down movement more support. It was also improves the clamping device of the rope, so that even in dirty or icy conditions, the rope is always good and easy. That overall the durability is improved, you have to think now at least. My Petzl Ascension certainly looks far more like new.

The processing and handling of the terminal is great and it runs very easily on the rope. On the nature of the mechanism for releasing the clip, nothing has changed. As with the old classics, there are two positions of the lever, so that either the teeth away from the rope in order to clamp down on the rope to lead or to guide in the fully open position to the terminal or from the rope. It is still early May, a larger Amount of new routes to screw in the hall at, so I'll test the terminal there again intense.

to tuning up to the real use of the Petzl ascender, here's a beautiful film:



There are for me with the new terminal no huge surprises. It just does exactly what it should. All others are to assess the techno-buddies.
