Qualities: The Expoglider® Story!
With a conventional anti-fall safety device like the cow-tail, the participant is again secured to a cable tensioned above the exercise. But at every tree or pole the participant must reposition his safety device, and this creates risks. Permanent visibility and the possibility to talk to the facilitator are legal requirements. When there is a large course the number of qualified facilitators needed will quickly increase.
The Expoglider® is fastened and unfastened only at the start and finish. The participant can do so without any tools. This renders superfluous the permanent supervision of every single participant. The number of facilitators and the monthly expenses can be reduced significantly.
Moreover, the Expoglider® is designed for repeated intensive use to reduce wear and tear. The belay loop is made in a way that allows separate replacement of worn-out segments.
