The
descender is a real
favourite on the ropes course with participants and
instructors alike. It allows the user to experience free
fall in a safe and controlled environment.
Originally developed for the military to simulate
parachute landings, the
fan descender works by
lowering participants to the ground at a controlled
rate. The rate of descent is variable so the closer
participants get to the ground, the slower they move. By
the time you reach the ground, you've slowed to such a
rate that it’s like stepping down from a chair.
