Petzl Falcon Ascent lightweight and comfortable harness for rescue operations and rope access work

The Petzl Falcon Ascent is a lightweight and ergonomic sit harness, specifically designed for rescue operations and rope access work that involves ascent. It features a two-part ventral attachment point that connects via an Omni carabiner, providing greater efficiency during ascent. This innovative attachment system also allows for the integration of a Croll ventral handle, positioned low to enhance climbing performance. The harness structure combines a ventral belt and thin, semi-rigid thigh straps with breathable 3D foam padding, ensuring an excellent balance between reduced weight, compact volume, and superior comfort, even during prolonged suspensions. The ventral belt is equipped with Doubleback Plus self-locking buckles that allow for quick and precise adjustments, while the thigh straps have Fast LT buckles for easy and fast donning without compromising safety and comfort. The metal rear buckle allows for direct integration with the Top Croll L chest harness, expanding the system's functionality in rope ascents. For those needing additional support during prolonged suspensions, the harness features separate webbing rings from the main attachment points, allowing for the installation of the Podium seat. The lateral fabric attachment points are discreet and lightweight, ideal for occasional use, and can be replaced with metal attachment points via the Ring2Side accessory. The Falcon Ascent also offers practical equipment organization with five gear loops: two large, rigid front loops for easy access to tools and three small, flexible rear loops that do not interfere with the backpack. There are also two dedicated slots for the Caritool tool holder, improving accessibility and efficiency at work. Made with high-quality materials such as nylon, polyester, and aluminum, the harness ensures strength and durability even in the most demanding environments. The Petzl Falcon Ascent is equipped with a ventral attachment point for rope access, lateral attachment points for positioning, and a rear attachment point on the belt for connecting a chest harness. It meets numerous international safety standards, including CE EN 813, CE EN 358, EAC, ASTM F1772, XF 494: FZL-DD-I, GB 6095/W, and GB 6095/Q, making it a reliable and certified choice for professionals operating in high-risk technical rescue scenarios.
