This is a lanyard with a built-in shock absorber for use when climbing Via Ferrata .

Because of the high fall factors involved when climbing Via Ferrata routes, it is necessary to use an energy absorbing lanyard. The Petzl Scorpio lanyard uses a stitch-ripping method of absorbing the energy that wil be encountered during a fall. ie there is a length of tape concertinad together, and held in a pouch on the lanyard. Should a fall occur, the tape pulls out of the pouch, ripping the stitching on the way. This slows down the speed of the fall so preventing injury.

The Scorpio lanyard has a central loop for fixing to the harness, and two cows tail slings. There is also a small central loop for clipping-in short.

A must for any aspiring Via Ferrata climber.
