Notch Aeris Friction Body Kit – Speed Upgrade for the Rope Runner Vertec
Take your Notch Rope Runner Vertec to the next level with the Aeris Friction Body Kit—a precision-engineered upgrade that replaces the lower bollard with a free-running pulley. The result? Less friction, faster descents, and ultra-smooth slack tending for limb walks and technical canopy moves.
Installation takes under one minute with a 5mm allen key, and your device retains its CE certification when used with the Vertec. Designed for advanced climbers who prefer fast, controlled “zero-to-hero” movement in the canopy, Aeris transforms the Vertec from smooth… to smooth and fast.
