Help reduce the impact force of falls on sketchy climbs with the Nitro. If you do fall, stitching will tear at multiple points, absorbing some of the impact.
The tearing of the stitching reduces the impact force exerted on protection in the event of a severe fall (tearing threshold at 2.5 kN, breakage at 22 kN)
