New Petzl GRIGRI Lead Belay Method |
 |
|
| |
NOTICE: Petzl America has announced a new technique for belaying a leader when using its GRIGRI self-braking belay device.
|
|
|
| |
As a tried and true belay device for sport climbing, the GRIGRI is used by many and often times dangerously mis-used through improper belay technique.
|
|
|
| |
Petzl has introduced the new lead belay technique for GRIGRI's in response to this potential misuse (which can and has resulted in accidents). Careful belay technique is important with GRIGRI's; they can and potentially will fail with improper use. |
|
|
| |
Check out Petzl's video on the new GRIGRI Lead Belay Method!
