The Ropeman 4 is the latest, innovative evolution of the original Wild Country ascender. This compact rope clamp covers a wide range of technical applications, including emergency rescue, self-rescue, ascending, self-belay and positioning lanyard adjustment. The new, improved side plate grooved closure mechanism prevents lateral sideplate opening when ascending a rope, and ensures that no rope gets stuck between the sideplate and the cam, making it more efficient and safer than comparable devices.

Made from lightweight, strong aluminium alloy and designed to work with a wide range of rope diameters, it also works with flat and tubular webbing slings and is compatible with HMS and oval carabiners. The ample cylinder hole design allows full rotation of the device around the carabiner.

The strong stainless steel wire is covered with a durable plastic sheath for safe and easy handling. The Ropeman 4’s small, lightweight design makes it easy to carry one on your harness at all times. An essential piece of gear for all vertical adventures.

Great addition to saddle set up .

Put the ropeman 4 on my tether line . Don't know why I waited so long to try it . Adjustment easier than sliding prusic knot . Get one. you won't be disappointed.

This product is so much easier to use when making any adjustments. Highly recommend.

Great! Makes setting sticks so much easier

This is my first season of saddle hunting. I waited to buy an ascender because the initial investment in just a basic kit wasn't insignificant and I wanted to make sure I was going to stick with it. Well, I love saddle hunting. What I don't love was dealing with adjusting the Prusik knot on the lineman's rope as I went up the tree hanging sticks. I thought there might be a learning curve for an ascender but, nope. Super easy to use. Build quality is great and I have total confidence as I go up and down the tree. I'll probably get one of these for my tether, too. Just a great investment. And, thanks Trophyline for the veteran's discount!

Haven’t died yet

Gives me security in the saddle, easy to use.

Only thing I need to figure out is I probably need to buy a new carabiner (that’s how they get ya) cause now my carabiner is hard to hook up cause it restricts the latch… still gave 5 stars tho cause I'm not a b**** lol

Ropeman 4

I bought this to use with my 8mm ropes while saddle hunting. Works as advertised, easy to set up and use. I do wish the carabiner channel was rubber coated or something to eliminate the metal on metal sound, but aside from that it works perfectly.

Too big of a strap

I’ve got a 36” waist and the strap doesn’t adjust small enough to fit properly. Will be returning.

Warranty Replacement

Revision to the pack magnetic closure is perfect!

Great fit

Cool concept, cheap execution

First off I’d like to acknowledge the designing that went into this platform. It’s built for compact “ Running and gunning “ all while being comfortable and light weight, A+ on that guys.
However before and during myself taking this apart for a paint job I noticed a few things that could use improvement.
CONS
- 1 bolt came with half the threads stripped, I did take a pick to it to make sure it wasn’t built up aluminum shavings (threads were indeed stripped.
- cast quality could be better. I have a couple hollow holes in my platform.
-plastic washers are basically junk, they come couped and deformed with 2 of them hardly intact.
- Anodizing or zinc coating on hardware comes off with minimal contact. ( making metal shiny and vulnerable to rusting )
PROS
- V bracket ( part that grips tree ) and climbing step is razor sharp, just be careful while taking apart to paint or whatever you intend on doing.
- Light weight
-innovative
-stable and comfortable design
Overall I would recommend this, but I’d like to see them do better on the quality control side of things.

Using on my tether line. Much smoother than the Prussik Knot. Fully supporting 285 pounds. Confident and secure.
