The LEZARD lanyard helps secure this phase: in case the helicopter moves away involuntarily, the LEZARD releases the adjustable lanyard. The adjustable lanyard remains attached to the cliff, and the rescuer and/or victim stay attached to the helicopter. ≈ 20 kg Find more information on the LEZARD helivac lanyard on page 78 and at www.petzl.com/LEZARD.
