Ushba Basic Ascender

Item #USH0001 | 9 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Best solo ascender out there?

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #1 - Big Wall Climbing January 29, 2009

You might not trust the defunct russian titanium company, but these things rock. Clamp system versus the teeth of the petzl's means less impact on your rope and they seem to clamp down better any way with out having to tend the unit while climbing. PROPER TRAINING is needed to use these safely, so be careful!
