It is primarily designed to provide maximum distance for the rope tip in parallel movement at the crown of the forest. This stainless steel telescoping handle is 10 feet long. Flexible tip allows you to bend it to any desired shape according to your work needs. You can bend it tight to hang the rope, or bend it into the S-shape to turn the rope tip over the branch. When finished, it can be returned straight to move over the tree without snagging anything. Climbers prefer the length, weight, and portability. More importantly, you can get more mobility in the forest crown. 14 oz Stainless Steel RETREEVER Telescopic Reach Tool
