Complete, ultra-lightweight and compact, the RAD SYSTEM (Rescue And Descent) kit allows skiers on mountain terrain to always have the equipment necessary for crevasse rescue, rappelling, or roping up on skis to get out of a crevasse zone. The kit contains a storage bag, 30 meters of RAD LINE 6 mm cord, carabiners, ascenders and a sling.

Ultra-lightweight cord:
