Ascenders without Handles
FEATURES:
• Equipped with a lever that keeps the device open, thus facilitating the insertion of the rope and preventing it from coming out.
• Cam/lever mechanism totally integrated in the body.
• Developed to grip on dirty and icy ropes, thanks to the self-cleaning cam.
• Fully adjustable webbing for a correct positioning.
• Reinforcement on the lower side with a tubular webbing.
• Well balanced, it doesn't twist under load.

• Well balanced, it doesn't twist under load.
• Unique dual cam design results in lower spring tension and reduced drag
• Toothless cams eliminate virtually all rope wear and provide increased grip strength on wet, muddy and frozen ropes
• Lower drag from decreased spring tension provides efficient self-tending of the climbing line
• Ambidextrous-for right or left foot
STRYDER™ uses the same unique stainless steel cam as the ISC Hand Ascenders. The coned cam -face allows positive engagement on the rope for a firm reliable grip, with minimal wear to the sheath. The spring has been meticulously designed to ensure that it has sufficient tension - so as not to 'pop-off' - but to still allow the device to move freely without towing the trailing rope.
The foot-lever can be used to open/close the cam with the other foot, and can be hooked over the body of the device to hold the cam in the open (disengaged) position. If preferred, the foot-lever bar can be removed, allowing a greater pivot range on the cam. This in turn allows the user to deliberately remove the rope from the device by using a kick technique with the leg and foot that the device is mounted upon.
STRYDER™ is fully adjustable on both the horizontal and vertical straps. The straps and under-foot sleeve are made from specially developed webbing which has passed extensive abrasion testing.

This revolutionary ascending and descending system is simple to use. Incoming rope falls easily through the device using the weight of the rope itself to take up slack. Climber can use the Lock Jack as a mechanical prusik and easily advance on the rope. Simply pull down on the wooden knob to release the prusik and decend. Device can be installed mid-line and features a swivel carabiner attachment.
The Lockjack can totally replace the friction hitches used on climbing lines. The Lockjack works as both an ascender and as a descender for self-belay in the doubled rope technique (DRT). The advantage of the Lockjack is that friction is applied to the rope with a smooth aluminum surface which causes less friction while climbing for an effortless advance, and a smoother more easily controlled descent.
Works with 7/16” or 1/2” rope with a simple part change of the clutch (both clutch sizes are included.) Use with a small D or Oval carabiner only. A larger carabiner may allow the wooden ball to pass through and become stuck, resulting in free fall.

• Unparalleled smooth one-hand descent
• Fully mid-line attachable (stays in one piece!)
• Rope friendly edges
• Flattened 'bird' sections for comfort when descending
• Multiple friction settings
• Integrated central tending point for attachment to a chest harness
• Improved sealed ball bearing pulley
• Internal spring keeps it safe from dirt and debris
• Slic pins keep all of the parts together when the device is opened

The Buckingham Throttle is a super-smooth tending device in both MRS and SRS modes, and gives you the ability to switch climbing styles with the press of a few buttons. Everything about the Throttle has been designed with ease-of-use in mind - adjust rope friction with a couple button presses, use the extra large attachment holes with your carabiner of choice, and never worry about dropping a part or tying a prusik incorrectly.
For optimal performance with the Throttle, please refer to Buckingham’s recommended climbing line list below.
