Petzl ASTRO® BOD FAST - International Version

The Petzl ASTRO® BOD FAST International Version is an ultra-comfortable, high-performance rope access harness designed for professional rope ascents and work at height. Engineered for efficiency and safety, this harness integrates an innovative CROLL L ventral rope clamp and a gated ventral attachment point, allowing seamless connection of descenders, positioning lanyards, progression lanyards, and seats for maximum freedom of movement and control.

Key Features

• FAST automatic buckles on leg loops and shoulder straps for quick donning and doffing, even with gloves, without loss of adjustment.
• Semi-rigid, wide waistbelt and leg loops contoured and lined with breathable 3D foam padding to provide excellent support and superior comfort during suspension.
• Adjustable shoulder straps with FAST opening buckle on the left and DOUBLEBACK self-locking buckle on the right, allowing easy, slip-free adjustments.
• Metal side attachment points fold down to prevent snagging when not in use and provide lateral attachment for positioning lanyards in double mode.

• Fall indicator on the dorsal attachment point that clearly signals if the harness has undergone a fall and needs to be retired.
• Elastic, replaceable leg loop bands maintain correct adjustment whether walking or suspended.
