Lyon Press Release

[Steve Bullman]

 

 

Unless you have been way out of touch you will have already heard about the new PETZL ZIGZAG mechanical Prusik. But did you know it is one of twelve new and updated products PETZL are launching this year specifically designed for the arborist?

 

Joining the proven PETZL range are seriously updated versions of the popular PANTIN foot ascenders and the TOP chest harnesses for the SEQUOIA seat harness range, a revised VIZIR face shield and the all new range of JET throw-bags and AIRLINE throw lines.

 

All of these products are shown in the new 2013 PETZL PROFESSIONAL catalogue and the 2013 PETZL TREECARE brochure, or can be downloaded in the link below.

 

Both of these publications are available to download from the PETZL website or free from your PETZL stockist.

 

For further information, video’s and links on the PETZL range of arborist product please visit Headlamps, gear and technical advice for mountain sports, rescue and work at height | Petzl

Does anyone know what kind of heat might build up in the zig zag? Could it be a problem I wonder?

[Barry_Skyland]

We have them too!!

Not sure there will be a problem about any heat build up, if I find anything out I'll let you know

Hi,

What have they changed on the Pantin? I am going to be getting one. Perhaps today but are the chances that I would get the old one? And is the price changing?

 

cheers muckers! Blizzards just came on here

[Tommy_B]

The new pantin is smaller and more streamlined. I think they have also removed the hole for clipping a crab in. Don't know if the smaller size will reduce the likelihood of rope kicking out but looks nice!

[Jonesie]

Hi Matt

 

The pricing is the same and all the ones we have are the new ones.

 

 

They have made them smaller and the cam is now stainless steel.

 

This is a link to the right foot one.

Thank you Tommy I think I want the new one then I found it handy as a foot hold as well as ascending.

 

And thank you Jonesie

Stainless steel cam *nods* it's a no-brainer now
