SkySaver is easy to use and requires no skill at all. Anyone can do it.
Simply follow our 3 step process: Buckle Up, Clip onto the anchor point, Exit through window or balcony.
Once you have released yourself, the SkySaver automatically will slowly descend you towards the ground floor.
Watch out for obstacles on your way down, and gently use your arms and legs to bypass them. You can hold on to an object in order to slow or stop your descend though we recommend against it. If you do, once you let go of it, you will gradually resume your original descending speed.[/su_spoiler]

Each adult needs a SkySaver Backpack. You can carry a baby, a child or your pet with the attachable front harness, designed specifically for this purpose. The SkySaver Family Backpack connects to the harness through the front side buckles. Once connected, your loved ones are the closest to you on your way down.[/su_spoiler]

SkySaver descends you at a steady speed of 3 to 5 feet per second (1 to 1.6 meters per second), depending on your weight. For instance if you carry your child with you, your speed will be a bit faster than your speed descending alone. The average user experiences this speed range very slow and a comfortable and smooth descent. [/su_spoiler]
