Automatic Release Sling
Automatic Release Sling is the worlds first automatic device that eliminates the high risk element during winching operations. The system allows for a secure connection between the rescuer and the mountain face or other potentially hazardous rescue locations at all times.
By using the Automatic Release Sling the helicopter is at no time firmly anchored, although the rescuer can be attached to both helicopter and the ground. The rescuer will either follow the helicopter out or be left behind on the ground. There is no ‘intermediate’ scenario where it is uncertain what happens.
