Wild Country Ropeman 4

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.

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.

Essential

After several hunts with the Ropeman I couldn’t imagine hunting without it. One-hand operation of the lineman’s rope is a serious nice to have.
