The ergonomically shaped handle is over moulded with dual density grip for greater friction & better grip. The grip is wider at the bottom, providing better comfort for your pinkie fingers during use. The index finger indent has also been increased, offering greater efficiency when pulling on the ascender. The cam has been redesigned to minimize friction when sliding the ascender up the rope while the angled teeth provide secure grip in the worst conditions (wet, icy, or muddy ropes). The geometry of the single piece aluminium frame ensures optimal handle orientation when the device is loaded & will maintain solid, comfortable performance for ascents of any length. Moulded grip provides even greater comfort with a more ergonomically shaped handle. This shape keeps your hand from sliding to the bottom of the frame each time you pull on the ASCENSION. The bi-material handle

Includes:: a rubber over moulded grip, increasing the comfort & grip in wet or icy conditions.

This brilliant device works on all dynamic single ropes from 8.9 – 11mm, but is optimised for 9.4 – 10.3mm ropes.  The unique design feature of the Grigri is its assisted braking, giving confidence to beginners & experienced climbers alike.  The Grigri 2 has a new design that improves control on descents, eliminating rope jam & sudden release to allow a very gradual release of the rope especially when abseiling or lowering a partner.  The Grigri 2 is 25% smaller & 20% lighter than the original.    Belay technique identical to classic belay systems: both hands on the rope. A fall is stopped by tightening the hand on the free end of the rope Assisted braking: during fall arrest, the belayer holds the free end of the rope, the cam pivots & pinches the rope, increasing the braking action until the rope stops sliding The GRIGRI 2 has a new design that allows excellent control during the descent. One hand holds the rope & the other uses the handle to unlock the cam. The patented handle design allows a very gradual release of the rope. In combination with the strong braking action of the cam, it gives a great feeling of security when lowering a partner or rappelling The GRIGRI 2 is compact & ultra-light at 185 g (25 % smaller & 20 % lighter than the GRIGRI) Built with a stainless steel friction plate & cam to ensure a long life for the product For 8.9 to 11 mm single ropes (optimised for 9.4 mm to 10.3 mm ropes) Diagrams for rope installation engraved on belay device (interior & exterior) ...

Petzl Myo RXP Grey.  A truly versatile headtorch for all activities & events that can be programmed to optimise power output & lighting modes. There are three lighting modes on offer, each with lumen outputs between 13 & 141.   You can programme which mode comes on first & how much light it chucks out.   You can even programme the strobe mode to be slow,  fast or SOS.   There is also a boost switch which bumps up the lumen output to 205 for those instances when you need all the light you can get.   On the front of the lens is a flip up diffuser which changes the light pattern from a flood to a spot.   With all this light output you will need to know how your batteries are coping, so the Myo RXP has a battery level indicator which warns when the batteries are 70% & then 90% depleted.   The 3 AA batteries sit on the back of the head & you can use lithium batteries to optimize performance in the cold.   An extra over the head elastic strap is included for when you need extra stability. Fully programmable lighting modes
- min power, max power & strobe Three lighting modes each with ten power settings 3 x AA batteries Compatable with alkaline, lithium, re-chargeable Ni-MH & re-chargeable Ni-Cd batteries. IPX 4 watertight Wide angle or spot focus beam patterns Reliable & durable construction
