CMC AZ Vortex Bag System
The Arizona Vortex Bag System is extremely rugged and can be carried back into the wilderness or in an industrial environment. It is designed for ultimate accessibility and quick access. They're made of tough nylon and have extra protection in high-wear areas for extra longevity. Recent Vortex Bag System enhancements enable a single rope technician to carry the entire Vortex Kit using our RigTech Pack and two redesigned Leg Bags.
End-to-end zippers on the RigTech Pack allow for a full-length flat opening. There is enough room and 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 are sold separately.)
The two-leg bags feature carry handles and an adjustable padded shoulder sling for easy transport. End-to-end zippers for full-length openings in either direction provide easy access, and the oversize bags can carry more leg sections than the previous design, allowing a single person to carry the entire Vortex. 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.
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 carrying both sets is unnecessary.
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.
