REVERSO³

^{Ultra light, multi-purpose belay/rappel device, with range of friction adapted to different rope}

This multi-purpose belay/rappel device is lightweight and easy to use. The asymmetric V-shaped grooved friction channels regulate the amount of braking friction on the rope according to its diameter and condition.

• Ultra-light design:
  • minimalist construction
  • hot-forged aluminum
  • 72 g
• A single device for all rope types:
  • effective braking on half and twin ropes ≥ 7,5 mm
  • effective braking on single ropes ≥ 8,9 mm
  • can belay the leader, one or two seconding climbers and can be used for rappelling
  • independent and simultaneous belaying of one or two seconding climbers in Reverso mode
  • quick change-overs from Reverso mode to belaying the leader when climbing multi-pitch routes
• V-shaped friction channels:
  • increased friction on thin ropes
  • friction is adapted for larger diameter ropes
  • increased holding power in Reverso mode
• Asymmetrically grooved sidewalls:
  • increased braking power during a leader or top rope fall or while rappelling
  • rope smoothly slides through device when taking up slack
• Carabiner hole to release device when loaded in Reverso mode: allows the loaded device in Reverso mode to be easily and gradually released with only a carabiner
• Rope friendly:
  • will not kink the ropes regardless of the mode used
  • separates the two strands of rope when belaying and rappelling
• Intuitive:
  • Reverso mode attachment point is easy to identify
  • keeper cable keeps the device from moving up the rope when belaying and reduces chances of losing the device
  • usage diagrams (standard belay and Reverso modes) engraved on device.
