Made in the USA by Wazoo Survival Gear. The D.I.Y Ranger Bead Pace Counter, Getting lost is one of the most common dangers in the wild. More orienteering mistakes are based on poorly estimating distance than any other factor. Pace counters A.KA "Ranger Beads" are designed to prevent this error and named because of their common use by the U.S Army Rangers, known for their expert land navigation skills. Wazoo Survival Gear were dissapointed by the quality of the parts and versatility of the designs that were currently available on the market.
So in typical Wazoo fashion they decided to create a Do It Yourself (D.I.Y) Ranger Beads Kit comprised of the highest quality components they could find coupled with how-to instructions that encourage creative designs and learning new skills.
The Beads You won’t find this quality of bead anywhere else. A common trend for Ranger Beads is to use plastic beads. Plastic beads are notorious for cracking and breaking due to exposure of hot/cold, water, atmospheric pressure, and of course blunt impact (stepped on). Wazoo wanted to design the best bead that would withstand any environment and last a lifetime. Wazoo derived the beads shape from hardware rubber washers and actually used a US manufacturer’s rubber washer mold and had them custom mix a batch of EPDM rubber. *Standard hardware rubber washers are made of various materials for various needs, none of which are for outdoor use. EPDM is a rubber known to be the toughest for outdoor applications like roofing material. After various tests, we’re confident these are the toughest Ranger Beads out there!!!
Features:
- Includes: 4ft paracord, 13 x Pace beads, Bison designs carabiner
- Full instructions
