Designed for pruning, the EJECT false crotch allows a working rope to be installed while protecting the tree, even in tight forks.
It offers several installation configurations on one or two branches and features an adjuster for precisely setting the length of the false crotch. Rope ascents and movements through the tree are optimised, thanks to the high-efficiency pulley that promotes rope sliding at the anchor point.
The system is easily retrievable from the ground, thanks to the throw ball included.
In order to increase the safety of its products, Petzl is offering a preventive update for products purchased before 15 April 2025 (Link: Petzl - Professional). All products currently in stock at Lecomte have benefited from this update.
