Petzl Reverso 4 Belay and Rappel Device

Great belay device

By Ranked #224 - Belay and Rappel Devices July 26, 2009

Having retire my reverso (became quite sharp from rope wear; although petzl says this is ok...I figured that $35 is pretty cheap for a very critical piece of gear).

works smoothly as a belay device (slightly smaller than the reverso...handles thin ropes better and thick ropes are a bit of a chore). Works great as an autoblock (for a 3:1; belaying 1 or 2 seconds, etc.) The quick release hole (allows you to torque it to release a climber when weighted in the autoblock mode) is really simple...a nice addition.

Pretty great belay device...covers everything from sport-wanking to multi-pitch alpine routes...
