Introduced in 1988 for greater speed and efficiency - the original, adjustable, full strength padded SPEED SLING sports 4 integrated loops to allow you better gear organization, control and a clear view of your feet. Inspired by both slab and overhanging crack routes in The Valley and Tuolumne the SPEED SLING keeps gear close, provides superior organization and faster deployment of the gear when you need it. Helps keep wired nuts from tangling with cams too. Loops are adjustable in size via 1/2 grapevine knot (at either end) and also can be removed. Harness rated buckle makes for a strong sling - should you reach the belay and be completely out of runners. Fleece shoulder pad won't slip and is comfortable on bare shoulder and neck. A great Nose-in-a-day SPEED SLING. Accept no substitute.
