Trango Cinch Belay Device

Item #TRG0012 | 47 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Better then the Gri Gri except when lowering.

By Ranked #575 - Belay and Rappel Devices December 11, 2006

Light, small, and easy to use. It feeds out rope on lead extremely well and catches people just as well. A bit sensitive when it comes to lowering, small sweet spot. But still would take this over the large clunky models elsewhere.

Have you tried redirecting the rope through an extra biner when you're lowering? It's noticeably smoother that way. Keep a carabiner clipped to your brake-hand-side leg loop, and before you lower the climber, clip it to the brake strand of the rope.
