Key Features & Benefits
- Gated ventral attachment point: Enables easy and efficient integration of various equipment such as PROGRESS ADJUST or JANE lanyards, the CROLL L ventral rope clamp for enhanced rope ascents, and PODIUM seats, all without the need for additional connectors.

- Foldable side attachment points: Plastic-inserted lateral points fold to prevent snagging when not in use, enhancing safety and convenience.
