Petzl Lezard
Helivac lanyard with securing of the drop-off/recovery phases
Developed in partnership with the Peloton de Gendarmerie de Haute Montagne de Chamonix Mont-Blanc (France), the LEZARD lanyard is designed for helivac at altitude. It allows the drop-off/recovery phases to be secured thanks to an adjustable arm that can be instantly ejected to free the victim, the rescuer and the helicopter if the latter needs to suddenly leave its stationary position. Manipulating the LEZARD helivac lanyard is easy thanks to the instant identification of the color-coded attachment elements and the very quick and precise adjustment of the adjustable arm with the ADJUST rope clamp.

NOTE: Because of the specificity of the LEZARD helivac lanyard, training on how to use the product is obligatory, through Petzl or a certified body.
(1) The LEZARD helivac lanyard does not have an energy absorber. It should thus only be used if the fall factor is less than 1 (used below the anchor point).
