Description of Mountaineers Books Alpine Climbing: Techniques to Take You HigherThis intermediate-level guide addresses tools, skills, and techniques used in alpine terrain including rock, snow, ice, and glaciers at moderate altitude-approximately 5000 meters (16,000 feet) and lower.

But 30 years of alpine climbing experience has convinced the authors that mastery-and safety-lie in the far more difficult task of knowing exactly which techniques to use, where and when. Therefore, they teach step-by-step decision-making skills, providing scenarios, checklists, and self-posed questions to inform the decision process. Alpine Climbing assumes some prior knowledge, primarily in rock climbing skills and techniques.

The 10mm Supernova Rope by Mammut is an incredibly well made dynamic rope that is perfect for beginners to seasoned climbers alike. Mammut starts by using only the most high quality Polyamide nylon for the production of their ropes, and their exclusive coating finish process coats each individual rope strand with the highly durable Teflon in order to reduce chafing and improve friction co-efficiency. Mammut’s ropes all have middle marking for easy view of the center of your rope, great for rappelling or noting how much rope is left when on a multi-pitch. Besides just getting an awesome rope, Mammut is also throwing in a rope bag with a super big tarp to keep your rope and gear on when climbing. A rope bag is key to keeping the life of your rope at its optimal performance.
The Mammut Supersafe Rope is as innovative as it gets when it comes to making sure your climbing experience is safe and injury free. Due to the Teflon coated fibers which reduces internal friction, the Supersafe rope will be less likely to core shot during big falls and will maintain flexbility and easy handling in whatever situation you are climbing in. The Supersafe is also Superdry treated so it will not absorb water, making it stronger and less resistant to wear and tear. Super durable, incredibly strong and coated to prevent water damage. To help prevent rappelling accidents or lowering off the end of the rope, there is a Triosafe color marking in the middle and 5 meters from each end. The last 5-7 meters of the rope are the danger zone.
The BlueWater II +Plus, the rope that made BlueWater what it is today. The BlueWater II +Plus is the standard for use in caving, rappelling and rescue applications. Its design of double twist cabled sheath strands as well as double twist cabled core strands is truly the most unique and exacting rope design anywhere. These factors make it the best all around choice in a static/low elongation rope. If you require NFPA certified ropes take a look at the SafeLine and ProTac series of ropes. *There is a $5 extra shipping fee due to the extra cost of shipping a heavy package. Rock/Creek pays the remainder of the shipping fee which averages about $10 to most locations.

Description of Petzl GRIGRISelf-braking Belay DeviceDevice for belaying a leader or a second and for single rope descents.Features:Self-braking system: if the rope suddenly comes under tension (e.g. in a fall), the cam pivots to pinch the rope, thus helping the belayer stop the climber’s fall. Usage is similar to that of conventional belay devices: Giving/taking slack is done by using both hands to slide the rope through the device, Falls are held by holding the free end of the rope, For lowering and rappelling, the rate of descent is controlled by the hand holding the free end of the rope (the rope is released with the handle). For ropes of diameters from 10 to 11 mm.225 g.

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
