Designed for ultimate accessibility and quick access, our new Arizona Vortex Bag System is extremely rugged and able to be carried on the back into the wilderness or in an industrial environment. Made of durable nylon, they feature extra protection in high-wear places for exceptional longevity. Recent improvements to the Vortex Bag System allow a single rope technician to carry the entire Vortex Kit using our RigTech Pack™ and 2 redesigned Leg Bags.
The RigTech Pack™ features end-to-end-zippers for full-length flat opening. There is plenty of space and protective padding to securely cradle the two head components and foot sets. The dual side pockets easily fit the pin set bag, 40-foot 8mm tether cord, and Vortex Hobble Straps. The top pocket is ideal for the Vortex User Manual or other items, and additional internal pockets can fit pulleys, carabiners, and hardware. (Vortex components, pulleys, and carabiners sold separately.)
The two leg bags feature carry handles and an adjustable padded shoulder sling for easy transport. End-to-end zippers provide full length opening in either direction for easy access. Two internal padded dividers allow for separated protection of the legs. Compression straps around the girth of the bag cinch tight to keep gear snugly in place. Our latest leg bag design has increased capacity with dimensions of 108 x 23 x 15 cm (42.5 x 9 x 6 in). All the leg sections of the Vortex can now fit inside two leg bags, allowing a single person to carry the entire Arizona Vortex Kit.
Each of the two newly designed padded foot sleeves nest inside the RigTech Pack and fasten securely to hold three foot components, either flat or raptor style. This facilitates a quick change of feet, so that carrying both sets is not necessary.
The Arizona Vortex Bag System is included with the full Arizona Vortex Kit. Purchase this Arizona Vortex Bag System if you need to renew or replace your current set. Individual Leg Bags are also available for separate purchase.
Sedona Shoulder Harness (sold separately)
A new removable backpack carrying system for Arizona Vortex leg bags, the Sedona Shoulder Harness quickly attaches or detaches from the leg bag for extended carries up flights of stairs or in the backcountry. The harness is constructed of high-strength Cordura® nylon with comfortable padded shoulder straps, sternum strap, back panel and waist belt, each lined with breathable cloth. Order one shoulder harness for each leg bag in the set.
Working-At-Height / Industrial Rope Access / Technical Rope Rescue
Working at height requires reliable, quality equipment. The Arizona Vortex Bag System can be used with confidence in work-at-height maneuvers for industrial rope access or technical rope rescue when used in accordance with the regulatory safety standards it falls under. Always use life safety equipment and gear according to the regulatory safety standards for which it is classified and/or certified.
