KK Spikescender (Left)

The KK Spikescender is a foot ascender, independent of the gaff and can be retrofitted to the Distel Geckos (Carbon or Classic) or the KK Carbons. The KK Spikescender bolts directly to the shaft, beneath the existing gaff, and tucks well out of the way beside your heel. The use of the KK Spikescender ensures smooth management of slack, while keeping your climbing line well out of harms way when ascending SRT or DbRT. Milled from aircraft grade aluminium and featuring an NZ-made titanium 'toothed' cam the KK Spikescender runs far smoother than many of the other foot ascender brands currently on the market. Dale has lightly tensioned the titanium cam which seems to resist the tendancy to create a bight in the rope on ascent. The milled alumiunium KK Spikescender can only be used when attached to stirrups - Distel Gecko or KK Carbons. For more information take a look at the videos.
