Petzl Scorpio Vertigo Via Ferrata Kit

At only 365 g, the Petzl SCORPIO VERTIGO is the lightest via ferrata lanyard in the Petzl lineup. Engineered with an ultra-compact energy absorber and two elasticated arms, this premium via ferrata kit allows you to navigate exposed routes and technical climbs with effortless ease and maximum mobility.

The integrated VERTIGO WIRE-LOCK carabiners feature an ergonomic grip and a generous gate opening, allowing for rapid clipping and unclipping from safety cables. Additionally, a designated short arm lets you attach a resting carabiner (sold separately) so you can safely take a break on a rung whenever you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions (Via Ferrata Q&A)

What is the weight limit for the Petzl Scorpio Vertigo? The Petzl Scorpio Vertigo lanyard is certified for users weighing between 40 kg (88 lbs) and 120 kg (264 lbs), including their backpack and gear, making it highly versatile for both youth and adult climbers.

Does this via ferrata kit include a resting carabiner? No, the kit features a built-in short arm specifically designed for resting, but the rest carabiner itself is not included. We recommend adding a standard locking carabiner to your setup for this purpose.

How does the Vertigo Wire-Lock system work with gloves? The VERTIGO WIRE-LOCK carabiners use an automatic double-action locking system. You simply squeeze the mechanism to open it, which is incredibly easy to manage even while wearing thick leather via ferrata gloves.
