The foot ascender uses toothless cams, which virtually eliminate rope wear while maintaining a strong, secure grip on a variety of rope conditions. Whether the rope is wet, muddy, or frozen, the Notch Jet Step provides reliable traction, enhancing safety and confidence for arborists, rescue professionals, and recreational climbers alike. The lower drag from the reduced spring tension also allows the device to self-tend efficiently, meaning the cam moves smoothly without constant adjustment, keeping your climbing rhythm uninterrupted.
Designed to be fully ambidextrous, the Notch Jet Step works equally well on either foot. This versatility allows climbers to switch feet quickly or accommodate personal preference without compromising performance. Its durable construction ensures long-term reliability, even in demanding environments.
Many professionals praise the Notch Jet Step for its superior performance. Kevin Bingham, owner of Singing Tree and inventor of the Rope Wrench and Rope Runner, said, “This is the smoothest functioning foot ascender I’ve ever used. I love it.” This glowing endorsement highlights the ascender’s exceptional design and functionality.
