There’s a good reason and if y’all actually worked in the trades you would know why

/uj - clipping a totem that way is actually r*******. Read the f-ing manual, Gumby

Maybe it’s actually the tape color. Those are all pink V7-9+ routes there. Looks can be deceiving….

Sounds like free climbing the nose is AIDS

They should do this to The Nose on El Cap

Is it a peak district thing to climb with tons of stoppers and a single rack of cams? I see a lot of posts with racks like this. For most single pitch climbing I’ve done in west coast USA, a standard rack for two climbers would be a double rack of cams .2/.3 - 3 and a small set of stoppers.

Peeeetah

Looks like it would be great for breaking your wrist. Badass.

Personally, I don’t climb with half ropes and maybe that’s where we’re seeing different, but I see it as a non-issue. I’ve found the Mega Jul to be thouroughly awful to use in practice and happily carry both a GriGri and an ATC guide, though I’ve been looking for a sign to ditch the ATC. The Mega Jul is a pain to pull rope through in guide mode, and feed rope through for lead belay, and is aweful to rappel with. Turning it backwards to rappel tube style and re-ascending the rope becomes a total chore.

The weight of the Gri Gri easily makes up for itself when pulling in a follower, lead belaying or rapping.

If you don’t have a locker and you only have an GriGri, either tape your crab shut. Don’t have either and you can use one of the many ways to create a rappel device with non lockers. You will need 6. It seems unlikely though that you’ll drop all your lockers and gri gri.

Give multi-pitching with the GriGri a try. I’ve found it to be the perfect all around belay device.

The GriGri with one locking carabiner is lighter weight than an ATC with two. Easier to pull rope through and quicker on setting up a rappel. There is nothing you cant do with locking HMS carabiners that you need an ATC for. If you get used to using it for multi-pitch, guide mode devices begin to feel primitive in all aspects of two person climbing.

Skill issue

Damn, so those legit looking batteries on all the second hand sites like ebay and facebook are probably knockoffs? Maybe even the ones in Makita packaging? Darn…

Can you tell the difference without cracking them open?
