Product information & specifications
Climbing Technology Quick Step-A Foot Ascender
The Climbing Technology Quick Step-A Foot Ascender is designed to make rope ascent faster and more efficient when used as part of a modern SRT climbing system. Mounted directly onto the climber’s boot, the Quick Step-A allows arborists and rope access professionals to ascend with less effort by engaging the rope with the natural motion of the leg.
When used alongside a handled ascender such as the QUICK’UP+ or a chest ascender like the CHEST ASCENDER HC, the Quick Step-A significantly improves climbing efficiency by distributing effort between the arms and legs. This results in smoother, faster ascents and reduced fatigue during long climbs.
The device features a fully integrated cam and lever mechanism built into the body, providing durability while maintaining a compact profile. Its self-cleaning cam ensures reliable performance even when ropes are dirty, muddy or icy — a key advantage for arborists working in challenging outdoor environments.
An adjustable webbing system allows precise positioning on the boot for comfort and optimal rope engagement, while the reinforced tubular webbing on the underside improves durability during repeated use.

Designed for Efficient Rope Ascents
