Description
Description
The FTC Tree Freexion device with tether gives you full control over friction during tree climbing. Combine it with a suitable pulley for optimal performance in both SRT and DRT systems.
This product contains only the **Freexion device and the tether**. Combine it with a CAMP Sphinx or DMM Triple Attachment pulley to create a complete system, such as:
Freexion system with single attachment pulley
Adjustable Freexion device with tether and Freexion hitch, together with a single attachment pulley (CAMP Sphinx).
Freexion system with triple attachment pulley
Adjustable Freexion device with tether and Freexion hitch, together with a triple attachment pulley (DMM Triple Attachment).
Our energy-dispersion system **Freexion** lets you advance with a friction hitch on a single rope, and move in all directions (up/down/across). It is CE-certified and works with all EN 1891 ropes (type A) with a diameter of **11.5 mm to 12.5 mm**. The three-part adjustment system (**hard/medium/soft**) lets you modify the system's angle. You can adjust the friction according to rope diameter, climber weight or specific conditions in the tree.
With secure opening of the front pin, Freexion can be installed in the middle of the rope for easy mounting. It is the first system that does not need to be taken off the rope or dismantled to change friction – change it in seconds without tools by pressing both ends of the double button.
In the tree you change the friction by moving the tether's pin to adjust the braking. Example: High up in large trees with heavy rope weight, set it to **soft** for reduced friction. Lower down, switch to **medium** or **hard** for increased braking. Climb dry on **hard** in the morning and switch to **soft** in rain due to rope diameter growth.
The setting is so intuitive that you soon adjust the braking freely. Extra loop on the **Freexion Tether** for a carabiner and extra friction during rescue. The shape makes it easy to switch from SRT to DRT – use the device to push the hitch without disconnecting the system.
The system is compact thanks to the short, flexible tether. During ascent it sits low, close to the body, for an upright position and good freedom of movement. The compact design favours lateral movements and easy adjustments between SRT/DRT or friction levels.
