Vertical maneuvering equipment

The Three Dimensional Maneuver Gear is a set of gear developed by humans that allows great mobility when facing the Titans. The gear itself takes the form of a body harness that encompasses much of the body below the neck. Though using it will allow a skilled user great mobility, it carries a large risk of overtaxing the user's muscles. Some tools involved in the apparatus include:


 * Handgrips

 * Iron Wire Propeller with Gas Plug in Blades

Usage
The simplest move possible with the 3DMG is simply aiming and firing the piton at an object and then activating the gas to reel oneself toward said object. They can then disconnect the piton and continue moving forward.

Usually however, soldiers must be able to move around in order to navigate in general. Therefore, they tend to use their momentum in order to swing around targets.

More advanced techniques include changing directions while still being reeled in as demonstrated by Jean Kirschtein in Ch. 23.

Origin
The circumstances regarding the creation of the 3DMG are detailed in the prequel novel Before The Fall. 3DMG was invented by Anheru, a first-class weapons craftsman who worked closely with the Scouting Legion.
