Description ~ The BlackBird by ART has been designed to facilitate climbing both with a single rope system (SRS/SRT) and a moving rope system (MRS/DRT). Without additional adjustments or tools, it is possible to switch between both techniques. The rope does not need to be removed from the device for this. The construction allows for identical descent behaviour in SRT and MRS. The BlackBird can be fully opened with a push button and can be is mid-line attachable without the device needing to be detached from the harness.The integrated swivel ensures optimal alignment at all times. The upper carabiner attachment is positioned opposite the user, allowing the rope to be easily fed into the device. The upper attachment point can also be used for V-rigs as well as 3:1 or 4:1 pulley systems. A ball-bearing pulley allows for comfortable operation, even without a lot of slack. For individual adjustments, the cam can be rotated on the friction amplifier. A carabiner attachment enables connection to the chest harness to pull up the device during ascent. The BlackBird is approved for rescue with two persons on a single rope (SRT) and on a double rope (DRT).All wearing parts are replaceable. The BlackBird comes with two cams for different rope diameters.BlackBird features ~• Certified to EN 12841 B/C• Multifunctional ascent and descent device for running double rope and standing single rope• Suitable for left and right-handed users• Approved for rescue with two persons• Two brake jaws (A for ropes Ø 11.2 – 11.9 mm | B for ropes Ø 11.9 – 13 mm)• Service life: 7 years from first use• Weight: 609 g
