WILDKENAdjustable Climbing Ascender Sling Foot Loop Ascender Webbing Sling for Outdoor Mountaineering, Rock Climbing, Expedition, Caving, Rescue and Aerial Work

Great size to use on climbing sticks for saddle hunting. I painted over the yellow with spray paint and the aider works great and holds up well. Used for over a year and I’ve now noticed a couple of stitches broken but still fine to use (and I weigh about 225lbs). Recently purchased a second just as an extra.

Bought this for using when saddle hunting. Hard to beat for the price. Only thing I would change is use a stiffer material for where you step in. Material is a little soft and can be a pain to get your foot in. Could be easily modified though. Hard to beat for the price.

I adjusted this fully tight it was still above my knee. So I doubled the strap and was able to get a proper length. I guess that’s better than built too short. Works fine

Really like this one. Stretch band hold it to my foot- no worries of it moving around. Plenty of adjustment. Not a sign of stitching issues or wear.

I purchased this ladder for $19, so I don't expect it to hold up for more than a few climbs. I have never heard of Wildken, and there is no website associated with that name. According to the Seller, it is rated for 18 kN pull strength, but there is no UIAA safety tag on the item, and therefore, it is NOT rated by the UIAA (International Climbing and Mountaineering Federation). So, this means that we need to be secured to the climbing rope with properly rated gear whenever we use the Wildken Four Step Foot Ascender. I'm not suggesting that this piece of gear won't perform (I haven't tested it yet), I'm just saying that unrated ancillary gear should be used in tandem with equipment known to be rated and tested by universally accepted standards. With that caveat, have fun on your next climb!

Elastic keeps it from slipping, good stuff

Awesome design, but normal sized feet won't fit in loops.

This is a great item. I use it for work, as I have to climb ropes for work. It is very easy to adjust. The only thing I had to do to the one I bought was cut off the elastic strap on the foot loop, as I need to be able to remove the strap from my foot easily and without hands most of the time. Highly recommend!
