If you have any specific questions, let us know. We have had a pre-production sample for quite some time now and can provide feedback on anything you’re curious about. As a store that sells many different belay devices, our bias is minimal, and we are realistic with the idea that no single item is perfect for everything. Once the Pinch is available for purchase, we will most likely produce an independent opinion video on it, similar to what we did for the Neox.

It does pay out slack slightly easier than a Grigri, although it’s not as smooth as a Neox, which is in a league of its own when it comes to this. Again, it's definitely an improvement over the Grigri in this regard, although you will still find yourself using the thumb press trick at times. You can see when Tommy is feeding out slack in the video that he is actually using this technique.

It is quite nice being able to block it out completely.

You can find out more on our website at: climbonequipment.com/products/meige-rechargeable-flood-light-mobile-power-bank?_pos=1&_psq=meige&_ss=e&_v=1.0 So far people have been quite impressed with it for the price. It’s definitely not the best light on a pure technical bases although for the price it’s out right amazing and outsells the other models that we stock.

You can’t fault us for being biased to one brand over the other 😃

Be sure to let us know what you think. Hopefully they become available soon.

Glad you enjoyed it. The use case of the direct attachment for simul climbing is one I never thought of till he said it but definitely makes a lot of sense.

You know it!

Hey Colin, during Jasmine’s 2012 ascent of Freerider, she did not lead every pitch cleanly, which she documents well on her blog. Both she and Evan fell while leading the crux pitch, along with one other pitch. Although they eventually top-roped these pitches clean, they never got them on lead.

Despite the Revo being decently smooth at pulling rope through it the Neox is even smoother when it comes to lead climbing. For hang-dog style top roping the Revo might be a bit nicer since it’s bit more grabby One of the biggest differences when compared to the Revo is how smooth it disengages after being in the locked position. I always found the Revo quite grabby. With the Neox you can simply just lean forward, unweighting the rope and things start moving again which is quite nice. No real need to manually manipulate the device which makes it quite enjoyable to use.

hopefully... 🤞

The Crag Wagon tarp is roughly 3X4 feet. If you are looking for a larger rope tarp for your current bag we sell the Mammut Neon Rope Tarp which can hold up to an 80M 9.8mm rope.

You are correct. There are now 35L and 45L models, as well as the 60L. This video is a few years old, and our current stock reflects the latest models.

It’s amazing you’re fired up about getting into climbing and putting so much thought into your shoes. The Kubo vs. Otaki should not be looked at as a beginner vs. entry-level shoe, but rather as two different shoes with different characteristics. Most notably, the Kubo is quite a bit softer and has rubber on top of the toe box for toe hooking. This would make the Kubo more ideal for routes that involve toe hooks or benefit from a softer shoe, such as indoor volumes or outdoor smearing. You will also have better sensitivity with the Kubo. On the flip side, the Otaki is stiffer, making it ideal for vertical edging on the smallest of holds; however, this does come at the cost of less sensitivity. Although these are the shoes' strengths, they are still considered all-around shoes, making them both quite versatile. The biggest tip for someone like yourself is to choose a shoe that fits rather than one that has the features you want. A Kubo that fits perfectly will edge better than a poorly fitted Otaki. Secondly, don’t worry too much about choosing the wrong style of shoe. Shoes don’t last forever, especially when you are newer and still learning good footwork. The reality is if you don’t like your first pair of shoes, you will be able to try something different when they wear out.

​@@climbonequipment I really appreciate you guys taking time to explain with details in order to share your knowlledge with this rookie. It meant a world to me. Now I know I have to take it easy and just try to have fun and I'll focus on comfort so I´m going for the Aragon model. You guys rock!

You're welcome and remember, the best climber is the one having the most fun! (quote from the late Alex Lowe)

It is less likely to twist the rope compared to the GRIGRI when belaying however if you are trying to drag someone up on TR or lowering them and excessively use the the right hand side friction plate you will most likely induce some twists. So far I have yet to have a super twisted rope as a result of the NEOX although I know it will happen at some point as that’s just the nature of these things. Generally speaking the straighter the rope can travel the less twists will be created.

Sounds like a perfect match for you! The learning curve going from ATC -> NEOX is waaay lower than it is going to a GRIGRI, especially for lead climbing.

I'd say it actually feels smoother than an atc!

@@redanansi that’s amazing. I wonder if the heft of the device contributes to that, since the weight provides more stability. Kinda like how a sinker works with a fishing lure if that makes any sense. Anyway, I have an orange one on order!

@redanansi, I totally agree

Great to hear you have one on order! It sounds like the NEOX is perfect for you. I have personally been quite pleasantly surprised by how well it handles.

@@climbonequipment Great job on this video. Explains some questions I had on the device.

Thank you 🙏 We appreciate the support

Based on our initial testing, we would not recommend this. In addition to the potential issue of the device not grabbing fast enough, there is also the risk of the breaking mechanism or handle getting blocked, preventing it from engaging at all.

That’s definitely true, especially with Petzl.

No doubt Ross is one of our favorites!

It’s one of those things that once you have it you question how you went so long without it.

Haha, if only it was that easy!

Dylan is a true crusher 💪

Thanks for reaching out! When saving data you need to create a tag to save your data under. For the first time you can type in the tag after your workout. The most common tagging strategy is left hand and right hand although you can create as many tags as you’d like. Once created you can simply choose any of your existing tags for your data to be saved under. Hope this helps.

We do not stock the Theory and just received stock of the Drago shortly after this was shot. We will be featuring the Drago in our next installment of this series, which should be out in a couple of weeks. We will also have a few of the new no-edge shoes from La Sportiva, such as the Mandala, later this spring.

@@climbonequipment also the futuras :O

We have a couple Futuras on clearance right now.

Thank you! We will be releasing a sport climbing edition of this video in the coming weeks, with a trad vision to follow. Definitely stay tuned!

It’s always a shame to see perfectly good shoes going into the garbage because of one tiny hole in the rubber. 💚

Thank you

It sure is Ethan climbing in that last clip!

@@climbonequipment Sweet footage, thought I recognized him!

What model did you end up with? Many Tenaya fans tend to agree with you. They are definitely one of the more comfortable performance shoes on our wall.

@@climbonequipment i wear the mastia and the indalo models. Very confortable and aweosome performance

@@c-trescuenca4344 Mastias are good, my only issue is the rubber isn't as good as La Sportiva and Evolv.

Sadly, Adidas has moved away from climbing with the 5.10 brand. The good news is Unparallel is run by the same folks who originally started up 5.10. Many of the Unparallel models resemble some of the old 5.10 classics. As for Mad Rock, we do not currently sell any of their products.

​@@climbonequipmentbut no ocun :( they're pretty popular around my area

Where about’s are you from @freddy-dj9pk ? We do carry Ocun crack gloves and apparel although we do not stock any Ocun rock shoes.

That’s great to hear! Thank you for the support

In addition to the newest ATTACHE, the BAR is also compatible with the previous ATTACHE (M38A SL). It is not compatible with any Attache that is older than the M38A model.

We can probably make that happen! Stay tuned :)

Thanks for the feedback 👍

Well said and I agree, pain is not an indicator of higher performance.

Came here looking for this.

Same. Respect for the video tho

Every time I work in the store this is exactly how I feel!

That’s amazing! Without a doubt you are going to love it

That’s amazing to hear!

Here's another happy Kodiak owner from Oslo!
