A rock-climbing device that safely aids climbers during a climb is described.
The
rock-climbing device has two carabiners attached to a band which runs through a
hollow tube. The climber is able to manually extend the tube over his or her head
to an out of reach fixed anchor in the wall of the rock and safely attach the carabiner
at the end of the device. This allows the climber to then attach the bottom carabiner
of the rock-climbing device to his or her harness via a rope on the harness. The
rock-climbing device allows the climber to safely and easily advance up the rock.
