Vortex Adjustable Friction Saver - Rig
Details
The Vortex AFS incorporates a Pinto Rig pulley to give you the advantage of a high-efficiency pulley at your suspension point. A length of 16' ensures you can adapt to your needs. Adjustment is provided by moving the Pinto Rig on the RIT prusik.
The Vortex AFS is easier to retrieve and use than other pulley-based friction savers, thanks to the large low-friction ring, as it can't collapse and bind in the tree. An additional accessory prusik and retrieval ball are included to aid in retrieval.
