Mammut Smart Belay Device

Not my cup of tea

By Ranked #216 - Belay and Rappel Devices July 26, 2010

It worked alright but I didn't feel like it would do the job. My rope is a 10.2 that did feed very well and would slip through the device(we let go to test it's autolocking feature) with heavier climbers(190+). Other ropes that would lock up were hard to pull through the device. It did lock the rope better than an atc though. I prefer either standard atc or grigri.

I'm just over 200 and this device catches me easily. No slippage. A little sensitive when lowering. Takes some getting use to.

Sorry you had that experience. I think maybe you where using the device improperly. If used correctly, the SMART will not slip when weight bearing. Its fool proof.
