Product DescriptionPer the Metolius website:
"PAS is yet another example of Metolius’ commitment to products that are safer by design. It is designed to give the climber a high-strength anchor connection while threading for the lower, setting up a rappel or belaying. The PAS should replace the daisy chain that many climbers wear affixed to their harnesses for belay change-overs. Daisy chains should NOT be used because tThe PAS is constructed from our super-strong, proprietary Power Webbing™.hey are full-strength only when loaded in the end loops (intermediate pockets are only 300 lbf/1.3 kN). The PAS is super convenient and easily adjustable--just clip the loop which puts you at the correct height and . . . voila! When not in use, just leave it girth-hitched to your tie-in points, gather the extra loops and clip to the side for compact storage."

| jfox | Good stuff here! | | 
Voted 5/5 | I switched to one of these after first using a daisy chain. The best and biggest advantage of this over a daisy, is that you can adjust the length of your tie in point since each loop is full load bearing. I rap from it by clipping a biner with my ATC to the middle, then double the end back to clip into my belay loop. Its double redundant that way for raps of which I really hate! Great product in my opinion and easy to use even for nOObs. | | Posted Mar 19, 2008 11:29 am |
