I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Rescue Figure 8

Description

Why We Like The Rescue Figure 8

The Rescue Figure 8 is a superior choice for long rappels and lowering heavier loads due to its larger size, allowing for better heat dissipation. It is also designed to accommodate beefier ropes, ensuring reliable performance in high-intensity situations. With the addition of horns, this figure 8 enables safe and comfortable mid-rappel stops by providing an extra tying-off point before leg wraps, enhancing both safety and comfort.

Product Details:

  • Large Figure 8: Specifically designed for high-angle rescue work, this figure 8 allows for efficient descent in challenging environments.
  • Increased size: With its larger size, the Rescue Figure 8 can easily handle thicker ropes, making it a versatile and reliable tool for heavy-duty operations.
  • Horns: Equipped with horns, this figure 8 offers increased friction, allowing for a slower and more controlled lowering process.
