Skylotec Spark Tactical Descender – Special Order Only (Preorder ETA - FEB 2026)
The Spark Tactical is the specialised, all–dark grey variant of the renowned Skylotec Spark descender. Built for demanding tactical and operational environments, this model features a fully subdued colourway — including the dark grey handle — giving it a uniform, non-reflective, truly tactical appearance.
Designed for professional use under the toughest conditions, the Spark Tactical combines the advantages of leading industrial and rescue descenders, with a configuration without an anti-panic function, allowing for fast, precise and uninterrupted abseiling — a key requirement in tactical situations.
Intuitive rope handling, compact ergonomics, and the ability to keep the carabiner attached to the harness during setup make it exceptionally easy and efficient to operate. Its advanced internal rope guide minimises twisting, kinking, and excessive wear, ensuring reliability when it matters most.
Please note:
The Spark Tactical model has not been in regular production for over a year and is available as a special-order item only, with extended lead times.
