We have identified a potential issue with the closing mechanism of the carabiners used in the Skywalker Pro Via Ferrata and the Skywalker Pro Turn Via Ferrata Sets. We respectfully request that all consumers carefully inspect their Skywalker Pro and Skywalker Pro Turn Via Ferrata and return all potentially affected products for replacement.
With lightweight carabiners and compact shock absorber, this via ferrata set is remarkably light. Thanks to the large openings of its carabiners, the Skywalker Classic Via Ferrata set is particularly easy to clip, and passed the latest UIAA tests with flying colors, which means it meets the very highest standards. Plus, with the integrated rest loop, it's easy to take a moment (or two) to enjoy the view.
