- Why is the Harken Ninja MultiAscend worth the upgrade?
Here is a quick review of some of the benefits that we have found over the course of the last year using it in training and on jobs.
- The Ninja MultiAscend changes the game by using 2 cams with grooves on them to capture the rope, unlike others on the market using one toothed cam.
- The rope feeds through the device effortlessly while ascending and descending.
- No teeth means it is easier to descend with and to come out of.
- Less effort is needed to descend on your ascender.
- Less effort for rescuing someone in ascent.
- No teeth also means less wear on your rope.

Hey, thanks for putting on a good video. Could you all do a video showing how to attach it to several types of harnesses with the black strap being laced through certain areas on the harness that you would approve?
Thanks for checking out the video, and for the request. Shared this with our internal team and we'll try to put something together! Stay tuned.
@jerryrule7509 - we shared a short video on how to attach the MultiAscend to different types of harnesses on Facebook and Instagram today. Here's the link to the Instgram post: instagram.com/reel/C22vtoVs48b/?. Hope this answers your question.
@@ElevatedsafetyUS thank you for being so responsive. That is with such a part in the industry. Just normal guys helping normal folks.
Thanks for the video! what is the make and model of the harness used during the video with the Ninja MultiAscend?
It is a Skylotec/Climbing Technologies Gryphon. I'm actually just testing it out but it is a very light and functional harness...loving it so far. You can get the ascend version that has the CT ascender in it or just the regular version with no ascender and then install the mulitascend into that. It has 2 straps by the Sternal D-ring to hold any device and the multiascend comes with the U shackle to attach.
I also swapped my Petzl Astro for a CT Gryphon a while ago. The decisive factor for this was the ability to use a chest ascender of your own choice.
Another big advantage is that the belt has slightly less padding. Nothing is missing, but the belt is less stiff and puts less pressure in tight situations.
Above all, this means that the belt fits much better in the gear bag.
Shackle doesnt appear to be compatible with hard attach points incorporated on many harnesses. Petzl Croll as an example provides a large offset hole at its bottom that allows the ascender to be rotated be a small amount once attached to a hard point so it rests parallel to the body. Harken shackle attached to the same hardpoint would result in the ascender being out of alignment and there is not way to compensate unless a sling or some other additional soft attach point is added between the shackle and the harness. Maybe a swivel on the shackle would help? Its a nice product..to bad I cannot use it on the Petzl rescue harness.
Yes, you're correct. The shackle is made to go directly into the webbing portion and is not meant to be attached to another connector. So it basically just sits in front of that other connector if that makes sense.
What harnesses do you mean? Except of the Petzl Astro I dont know any other harness with a hard attachment point for a chest ascender. Sometimes there is a screelink included but i don't see any reason Not to simply replace this by the haken.

@@spaceaholic Thats one harness, you wrote "many harnesses".I don't know of any other manufacturer with such an unconventional design as Petzl. Strictly speaking, it is almost impossible to get a chest ascender other than the Petzl one into the Astro. The shackle requires such a large lower hole on the chest ascender that no chest ascender that I know of has.
And if you ask me, I don't see any reason to use Petzl belts at all. Their patent policy is highly unethical.
