Petzl Grigri+: Safe for Learners, Suitable for Intensive Use

The Ultimate Breakdown

Progressive Descent Control

The Progressive Descent Control feature of the camming mechanism offers a 3:1 mechanical advantage, ensuring smooth rope control and reduced lowering efforts, regardless of the rope diameter. This innovative design makes the device ideal for climbers of all experience levels.

Cam-Assisted Belaying

Cam-assisted blocking ensures a comfortable belay by automatically cinching down on the rope when the climber falls or weights the rope. Compatible with dynamic single ropes ranging from 8.5 to 11 mm, this feature enhances safety and reliability during climbing.

Anti-Panic Handle

The anti-panic function is activated if the user pulls too hard on the handle. This safety feature stops the climber's descent, making it suitable for both novice and experienced belayers, especially in situations where there are significant weight differences between partners.

Multiple Belay Modes

The lockable selector knob allows you to choose between top rope or lead belay modes. Top rope mode simplifies taking in slack and makes long belay sessions more comfortable. This flexibility ensures that the device can accommodate various belaying scenarios.

Steel Wear Plate

The stainless steel wear plate provides extra protection for the high-wear area on the GRIGRI, near the brake side of the rope. This feature prolongs the life of the device and ensures it remains reliable under demanding conditions.
