Petzl GRIGRI Belay Device

If you’ve ever been to a crag or a climbing gym then you’ve seen the Petzl GRIGRI Belay Device in action. As a staple of the climbing community since its inception, the assisted braking power of the GRIGRI has given climbers the confidence to devour hard on-sights and to take fall after fall after fall while working out tricky crux moves from the huecos of the Red River Gorge to the towering granite slabs of Yosemite National Park. Accommodating ropes from 8.5 mm to 11 mm and built with a steel cam and friction plate, this assisted belay device oozes both versatility and durability in one compact, easy-to-use design. With an ergonomic handle that allows you to easily control how fast your climber comes back to Earth, you can maximize efficiency during a quick session or let them dangle in anguish after throwing a serious wobbler. Whatever your reason for climbing, whether it be to take on a new challenge or because you can’t imagine life without it, the GRIGRI is by far the easiest to use and most reliable belay device that should’ve been on your rack yesterday.

• The gold standard in assisted braking devices for single-pitch climbing
• Assisted braking allows a camming device to pivot onto the rope, pinching it and arresting the climber’s fall
• Compatible with a wide range of climbing rope diameters
• Durable and compact design lasts for climb after climb
• Ergonomic handle allows for maximum control when lowering your climber
• While the device is an assisted-braking option, proper belay techniques should be followed including always keeping a hand on the brake side of the rope
