Description
xThe Arizona Vortex is the ultimate artificial high directional system (AHD) that adapts to almost any terrain or set-up location. The Vortex can be set up in multiple configurations including tripod, bi-pod and monopod. Separately the two heads create an a-frame, gin pole, a combination of the two, as well as a multitude of other configurations.
The Vortex can be used in a variety of situations including mountain and confined space rescue as well as rope and work access. Many companion products exist to extend the functionality of the Vortex, such as the Omni-block, AZTEK, Kootenay and AZORP, which allow it to meet virtually any requirement for a portable AHD system.
Other features of the Arizona Vortex Multipod include:-
the A-Frame joiner section and gin pole head can be used together or as separate AHDs the smallest adjustment increment across the system is only 7.6cm making it ideal for difficult confined space and USAR operations.
WLL is around 450kg
Can be fitted with two different types of feet: Raptor and Flat (sold separately)
A-Frame head can be be fitted with ‘head set sheaves’ for an ultra low gain system (maximising head height in a lift) all parts are available separately and are replaceable
The basic frame includes both the A-Frame and Gin Pole Heads, three Upper Legs and seven lower Legs. The feet, either Flat Feet or Raptor Feet, much be purchased separately, as must a Bag Set if desired.

A-FRAME JOINER (VXAF)The A-Frame attaches to the Gin Pole Head to construct the standard Vortex tripod configuration. The A-Frame with legs attached to both sides is also used as a standalone bi-pod rigging piece. The Lower legs can now be used to connect directly to the A-Frame by inserting the bottom end (stud) of the Lower Leg into the A-Frame. A pulley, Omni-Block, or pulley sheave connects directly to the A-Frame with a quick release pin to increase the effective height of the Vortex.
