Monday, January 19th, 2015

Revac-USA is a total tactical ropes solution company. They put folks where they wouldn’t usually be through training and equipment solutions. For example, they’ve used this caving ladder and hook on targets up to three stories tall.

Think of them as the Swiss Army knife of ropes. It’s not just going out to a unit and demonstrating a new rappelling harness. These guys are working with vendors to provide specialist products for access and rescue and helping world class problem solvers access vertical challenges previously difficult to tackle.

They’ve developed customized training courses for military and LE organizations and continue R&D to lighten the tactical climbers’ load.
