"don't be a nervous lead climber!" - Review of Petzl Grigri Belay Device

This is a great device for taking newbies climbing. i love the picture on the grigri that illustrates which way to feed the rope. i don't personally like it as a lead climber though, when I need rope in a hurry and the thing locks up as I try to yank the rope up! But it functions as designed. i find it a little bulky for multipitch climbing since you have to have your ATC with you anyways, it becomes an extra piece.
