The Rock Exotica Akimbo is a versatile mid-line attachable friction device that allows climbers to ascend and descend a stationary or moving rope system without changing equipment, and without detaching from your saddle. Adjustable settings allow for optimal performance with a range of climber weights and rope diameters.
The Akimbo opens easily to remove or install a rope mid-line in seconds, and compresses back down into a compact form factor both on and off the rope. When climbing on stationary rope, the chest harness connection point facilitates quick connections by way of an innovative wire gate. As opposed to a closed loop attachment, the wire gate conveniently allows the climber to use a small non-PPE carabiner to connect to the SRS attachment point, or directly to a loop of cord.
- Opens easily to install/remove rope mid-line, without detaching from harness.
- Accepts wide range of rope sizes (See list of approved ropes).
- Friction adjusts easily without tools.

- SRS chest attachment wire gate provides quick connect/disconnect for cord or small carabiner.
