Kong Black Hydrobot Canyoning Descender
Hydrobot is a special tool conceived for modern canyoning; it can be used both with one or two ropes and allows easy braking variation under load.
Compared to other models, Hydrobot helps prevent accidental loss, avoids rope twisting and avoids wear on the connector.
The characteristic which makes Hydrobot unique is the possibility to use it as an auto-locking device in case of emergency, ascending on one or two ropes (in conjunction with a Prusik knot).
The possibility of overturning the central bar (fixed by a screw) allows use by left-handers.
Hydrobot is the only descending device fitted with a magnet to retain the mobile bar!
Kong Black Hydrobot Canyoning Descender
The Kong Hydrobot is a specialized canyoning descender designed for modern technical descents. Crafted from lightweight aluminum alloy and finished in sleek black, this innovative tool offers optimal control and braking performance with both single and double rope configurations. Ideal for professional canyoners, guides, and rescue teams, it ensures smooth and secure descents even under load.
Unlike standard descenders, the Hydrobot minimizes rope twisting, reduces connector wear, and features anti-drop protection to prevent accidental loss during use. Its standout feature is its emergency auto-locking function—when used with a Prusik knot, it allows safe ascending on one or two ropes, offering additional versatility in critical situations.
The central bar can be reversed for left-handed users, and an integrated magnet holds the mobile bar securely in place—making it the only descender of its kind with this practical safety enhancement. Perfect for advanced canyoning, rescue operations, or challenging vertical environments, the Kong Black Hydrobot is a reliable and essential part of any technical rope kit.
