Black Diamond Super 8 Belay/Rappel Device

The Super 8 Belay/Rappel Device is Black Diamond's original device for Search and Rescue professionals, and it makes an excellent lo-fi addition to any climber's rack. Its lightweight, compact shape is an ideal choice for minimalist climbers, as well as a tuck-away lifesaver if you drop your primary device at the top of a route, right before the rappel.

easier to use

you can use any carabiner thru anchor hole to reposition I run a Boy Scout troop. I Think it will be easer to use

Just in case

Not the newest equipment, but a reliable and lightweight standby to have in my pack.

It does the job

These belay devices are not sexy but they do their job. Nice size and weight, and above all, helps to provide a bit of friction for safely controlling inertia and becoming an unfortunate statistic. Reasonably priced, so kit up with more than one.

Always good!

I’ve been using the Super 8 for guiding canyons and personal use, for a good 16 years now. Put them through it and they always show up as a great, reliable product. I’ll probably continue using them for as long as they’re made or as long as I last!

Reliable and jingly

Been using my super 8 for years, it’s my favourite 8 by far, and it rings really nicely on the rack :)
