ALL CLIMBING SALES ARE FINAL. With the creation of the BRD by Metolius – we have achieved a simple – safe and bombproof belay/rappel device. The principle behind the BRD is very simple: as the load of a falling climber is applied – the carabiner is pulled into the scientifically engineered rope slots and the rope is squeezed between the carabiner and the BRD. The result is that a tremendous amount of friction is generated – allowing the belayer to easily catch long – hard falls with relatively light hand pressure. For rappelling – the BRD will give you a relatively slow and controlled (and we feel safer) rappel. If the rappel is moving too slowly – you can re-orient the device for a speedier descent. FEATURES of the BRD – Belay Rappel Device by Metolius A versatile – lightweight belay/rappel device w/engineered rope slots which means added control via increased friction on the rope Single or double rope compatible (8 mm to 11 mm ropes) Increased thermal mass and cooling fins to dissipate heat Hard anodized for longer wear CNC machined from 6061 T-6 aluminum Cooling fins to dissipate heat more efficiently Available with or without the Element locking carabiner SPECIFICATIONS: Weight: 2.9 oz.

New and improved, Omega Pacific’s SBGII is the smoothest & most versatile belay device available! Based on a design by Greg Lowe.By incorporating a rigid stem on this device,climbers can go from full lock-off to whipping rope out in a single, smooth action, no more binding up as the device tries to free itself! And the amount of friction can be completelyadjusted to suit your particular need. Does your climber outweigh you? Are you using skinny ropes? Then set up the brake line through the V-Slots! Clipping in short (into the oblong hole in the center of the stem) adds even more braking power. Climbing with fat ropes, a skinny partner or on low-angle slabs? Then belay off the U-Grooves for less friction and clip into the bottom hole of the SBGII! And if you’ve ever rapped on a single 8mm or 9mm ropes with a traditional belay device, you know what a fast and loose ride that can be! With the SBGII, wrap that skinny cord around the rigid stem and rappel figure-8 style for the ultimate in control and safety.”Unlike the keeper loops that all the other devices in our test utilize, the SBG II features a solid-metal stem, which renders the durability issue moot. The stem has two clip-in points ? one at the end for belaying and rappelling with single ropes, and one in the center for belaying with skinny double ropes. The tube features deep rope-controlling jaws on one side and rounder and feeding-friendly grooves on the other, so you can rig accordingly. The one downside to the SBG II is its complicated feature set ? take time to read the instructions so you get full value.” -Climbing Magazine

Description of Mountaineers Books Washington Ice: A Climbing GuideGym climbing has evolved into a sport in its own right and Matt Burbach has been there to spur it on. He established, developed, and directed the Indoor Climbing School of Earth Treks Climbing Center in Maryland, the largest climbing gym on the east coast. Now he presents the same techniques and training exercises honed by coaching hundreds of climbers.Burbach covers all aspects of indoor rock climbing in detail, including what to look for in a gym, analysis of equipment and how it works, proper top-rope systems management, and movement technique. More advanced indoor climbers will appreciate chapters on topics such as indoor leading, performance, competition climbing, and bouldering. For outdoor rock climbers now training in gyms, this guide aids the “reverse” transition from climbing on real rock to pulling on plastic. Throughout, Burbach not only demonstrates the proper techniques and skills, but goes one

Description of Mountaineers Books Climbing: Training for Peak PerformanceThis book is for climbers of all ages, abilities, and interests who wish to improve their performance. It is for weekend warriors who enjoy 5.6s yet desire to lead 5.10s, and for mountaineers interested in moving faster at altitude. It is for ice climbers who want to move more efficiently over frozen terrain and big wall climbers who want to increase their stamina. The standard concept of training for climbing has long been, “just climb!” While that may suffice for a few gifted individuals, this philosophy has also resulted in countless climbers reaching performance plateaus and suffering recurring injuries. Even after the benefits of training began to be recognized, many of the regimens developed by climbers were physiologically unsound; some were downright dangerous. Climbing: Training for Peak Performance carefully details the foundation and fundamentals of nutrition for mind and body, flexibilit

The Metolius Boss Hog Crash Pad is a cool pad this season that has a new innovative foam layering system that provides the ultimate in providing fall stopping potential. With a 1" top sheet of closed cell foam that is un-split, meaning there is no gutter, as well as a 2 1/2" open cell and 1/2" closed cell bottom layer with an angled hinge design.

The Fuse Belay Device by Mammut is a lightweight safety device that is designed for belaying with single or double ropes, and rappelling. The Fuse has a linear rope lead that avoids entangling and keeps ropes clean.
The Smart Belay Device by Mammut has been specially desgined to meet the needs of the constantly growing group of indoor and sport climbers. It dynamically brakes the climber in an accidental fall and locks even at low levels of force exerted by the user. In situations where the user has a sudden shock, the Smart Belay device corresponds to the reflex movements of the human body. Suitable for all current HMS carabiners and simple ropes from 8.9-10.5 mm in diameter.
The Grigri Belay Device, invented by Petzl, introduced a revolutionary technique of belaying and descending. Others have tried to copy but the Grigri remains a quantum leap ahead and is still the premium choice for a self-locking belay. The Grigri allows belaying and lowering of a climber even where the latter is heavier than the belayer. A handle allows easy control of the device and smooth running of the rope. The Grigri works somewhat like an automobile seat belt: when movements are slow, the rope runs freely through the device; when there is a shock load, the Grigri locks, jamming the rope with a cam.

The Trango Pyramid Belay Device could possibly be the best all around belay/rappel device on the planet. The Pyramid is light, compact, durable, and can smoothly handle just about any rope combination. Features machined cooling fins that work both to keep it cool and to make it less prone to being dropped. Pivoting center pin lets you flip it over to customize the feed of your ropes without affecting its stopping power. Rappeling is always controlled and jerk-free and the flat rope path virtually eliminates kinking. Elongated center pin makes it easy to rig with stiff or fat ropes and the burly retaining cable will last the life of the product.”The Trango Pyramid is a time honored design and for good reason ? its versatile and effective design still ranks at the top of the pack. The long tapered tube, which provides a smooth rope-bearing surface and features effective heat-dispersing metal fins, flips so that you can rig either the narrow end close to the biner for extra control or the wide end for quickly feeding rope. Using the narrow end can make for snaggy rope feeding, so judge your belay situation accordingly.” -Climbing Magazine

This unit works well on all ropes from skinny 8.0s to fat 10.5s – as usual all the DMM office personnel were roped in to test this comprehensively at the local wall, however the prize goes to Mr. Desroy for taking repeated falls onto a (backed-up) new 8.0mm rope…. It uses the same nylon covered retaining wire as that used on the Bug because this has a proven history of good durabilityFeatures:Weight: 88gDesigned for 8.0 to 10.5mm ropes.Manufactured from stainless steel using lost wax investment casting

The B-52 Belay Device by Trango has been recently updated. The B-52 is the first belay device designed from a total performance point-of-view and with the refinements we’ve made recently – its even better. We’ve beefed up the small end of the device or added durability and subtly rounded the edges and curves making it even smoother to operate. Rappelling with the B-52 is a thing of beauty.

For advanced climbers and guides doing multi-pitch routes – the B-52 can be used as an in.autobloc in. device that will lock the rope automatically when the leader is belaying one or two seconds.
