Designed for the experienced belayer, the GRIGRI is a belay device with assisted braking designed for belaying both in the gym and at the crag.

The design of the handled camming mechanism enables exceptional descent control.

Description

  • Belay device with assisted braking, compatible with a broad range of single rope diameters, for both gym and crag:
    - feeding slack and catching falls are done using standard belay techniques; always keep a hand on the brake-side of the rope
    - the assisted braking function is activated when a climber falls, the device pivots, the rope tightens and the cam pinches and blocks the rope. Holding the brake side of the rope helps engage the cam, therefore it is important to always hold the brake side of the rope
    - compatible with dynamic single ropes 8.5 to 11 mm, optimized for 8.9 to 10.5 mm
    - rope installation diagram engraved on both the interior and exterior of the device
  • Exceptional comfort during descents:
    - the ergonomic handle allows you to easily lower someone
    - smooth descent control is achieved thanks to the progressive action of the cam
  • Designed for experienced belayers:
    - simple to use for belaying both lead or top-rope climbers
    - optimally balanced design: lightweight (175 g), compact and durable

Our Reviews

Petzl Grigri

I've been sport leading for 5 years using a ATC. My new climbing partner insisted on me using a grigri. I find it harder to use than an ATC particularly for feeding out rope quickly when clipping, the cam locking is aggressive. It's good for abseiling when loading my 10.5 semi industrial static rope when top rope soloing as it's very hard to get into a ATC. Overall it's good for a cam locking devise but not as easy to use as an ATC for me.
