The SKYLOTEC Spark descender is a lightweight and compact rescue descender. The anti-panic function has been removed to allow fast descents to be made without having to worry about triggering the brake – control is simple pull back to go, pull back harder to go faster and slow down by letting the handle return. Designed to eliminate twisting, the rope pathway through the device has the rope coming straight out the bottom. As there is no deflection over an edge the rope no longer gets twisted when descending. The Skylotec Spark is made completely of metal making it durable and robust. The compact design means it fits into the palm of your hand.
