Kop de Gas V-Hook vertical Hook

The V-Hook from Kop de Gas is a special product. Because it is a mixture of pecker / beak and Skyhook.

This model is intended for vertical cracks. On the one hand, it can be easily hammered in. On the other hand, you can use it purely as a hook. The V-wings stabilize the part on the rock.

The special shape of the head also enables ideal setting in larger holes. For example, in dolomite rock.

In short. An extremely versatile beak piton – Skyhook hybrid. Anyone who climbs a lot of techno or makes first ascents from below will love it!

Attach tubular tape or aramid cordalette

You cannot use the V-hook like this. You will also need to attach a lanyard such as a hose band. An aramid cordalette is also ideal.

Important: the knot must be on the reverse side. I.e. on the side that faces you after placement.

It also presses the Beak-Hook Hybrid nicely against the rock.
