Product detailed description

ART Blackbird Descender
The Blackbird from ART provides everything you need for safe and adaptable rope work. Whether you're working on a stationary single rope or a moving double rope, this device adapts effortlessly to your technique - no adjustments required. Switching modes is quick and tool-free, while the rope always stays securely in place.

Particularly clever is the ability to install the device directly onto the rope without having to remove it from the harness. With a simple push of a button, the Blackbird opens fully - practical and time-saving in every situation. The integrated swivel ensures that the device automatically adjusts to the optimal position, allowing you to fully concentrate on your movement. In rescue scenarios, the Blackbird remains uncompromising: it is designed for use by two people, making it ideal for professional tree care.

Its sophisticated design enables low-friction rope handling, even in less than ideal conditions. When connected to a chest harness, the Blackbird offers effective support during ascents.
