Why We Like The Wild Country Ropeman 2 Ascender
Now with forged sideplates, the Wild Country Ropeman 2 Ascender is lighter and smoother than ever. The improved internal radius operates efficiently with a wide range of rope diameters, from 8 to 13mm, while the aggressive stainless steel cam ensures a confident bite on those thinner cords. Whether we're helping our second who has run into trouble, moving past a blank section on the wall, or hauling gear, this featherweight ascender adds little weight to our rack but a whole lot of functionality.

Little but powerful
This little guy is awesome. Multiple uses. Great for small ropes. Ultralight and bright color is easy to find. Make sure you practice with this before using it in the field.

Works as Advertised
Works as expected - very easy to use and while I use it as a back up for another Ascender - using them for top rope soling, I'm going to grab another and keep the system consistent. As I said - it works really well and is very easy to set up. Thanks for a great product!
