Black Diamond ATC-Guide Belay Device (Fall 2008)

The ATC-Guide Belay Device by Black Diamond offers maximum versatility. It has a smooth - regular friction side and - for twice the friction - a grooved side. When you"™re belaying from above - the "guide mode"� lets you bring up one or two seconding climbers with ease and control. For lowering - it has a small secondary hole that you can girth hitch for more leverage to release the device.Weight: 102 g (3.6 oz)
