Rock Exotica Transporter XL

The Rock Exotica Transporter XL is a large gear carrier that hangs from your saddle and holds a pile of carabiners, slings, pulleys and small tools where you can reach them. The XL size suits climbers who carry a lot of rigging hardware aloft.

Keeping hardware in reach

On a rigging-heavy removal, a climber can be carrying several blocks, slings and connectors. Clipping them all to saddle loops gets messy fast. A dedicated carrier like the Transporter XL keeps that hardware together and easy to grab one-handed.

Many climbers hang one on each side: rigging gear on one, climbing spares on the other.

It also helps on the ground. Load it up with the slings and carabiners for the next rigging point and send it up on a tool line, so the climber can clip the whole set to the saddle at once.

Not for life support

A gear carrier is for storage only. Never use it as an anchor, tie-in or connector in a life-support or rigging system. Life-support gear has to meet the applicable standard (ANSI Z133 and the manufacturer's instructions), be inspected before every use, and be used by trained climbers.

Check it for cracks, deformation and sharp edges that could damage slings.

Hang it where it does not swing into your work, interfere with your lanyard or crowd your tie-in. Keep the heavy pieces toward the back so they do not pull the saddle off center.

Clear it before you descend so nothing is left hanging that could drop on the ground crew.
