EDELRID Cable Vario
The Cable Vario is the first ever Via Ferrata Set with braking resistance that can be adjusted according to the weight of the user.
Innovation
The Cable Vario’s core component is the newly developed and patented Variobrake. It allows braking resistance to be individually adjusted according to the user’s weight, similar to the ZValue or release setting for ski bindings.
Design
As simple as intuitively to use. Inhouse design by Richard Heinz, Daniel Gebel, Daniel Becher.
Performance
The Cable Vario ensures a braking distance of 1.2 m and minimizes impact force for children and lighter users. Serious injuries caused by non triggered energy absorbing systems are avoided. It naturally includes tried and trusted EDELRID technology.
Jury Statement
“This product really answers an existing problem, particularly with lightweight people and especially children or women who were not able to do Via Ferrata climbing. The adjustable brake adds extra safety and is a big step forward in the development of Via Ferrata Sets.”
