Main Features
The genius of the Contact Sling 8.0 lies in its innovative design. At its core is the revolutionary Contact stitching technique. This unique process creates a join that is not only incredibly strong but also remarkably smooth and low-profile. Unlike conventional slings with stiff, bulky bar tacks, the Contact Sling offers consistent flexibility and optimal handling throughout its entire length. This makes clipping, tying knots, and managing the sling exceptionally easy and snag-free, even with gloves on. The high-end webbing is engineered for maximum durability and abrasion resistance, promising a long service life even with intensive use on sharp rock and ice.
