Climbing belayer-descender Climbing Technology Alpine Up 8,6/10,5 mm

The ALPINE UP is the most complete and universal belay-descender ever made, suitable for mountain use with double, twin or single ropes. Extremely versatile, it allows abseiling in self-locking mode and offers three belay modes depending on the terrain.

The click-up (assisted manual braking) mode enables :

• belaying the premier on multi-pitch sport climbing routes (equipped with spits and pins);
• self-locking abseiling using the pivoting lever;
• absolute safety even if the rope has been installed the wrong way round.

Dynamic mode (manual braking) allows :

• belaying the premier rope on mountaineering routes or icefalls (protected by friends, jammers or pitons);
• effective, adjustable braking thanks to V-shaped braking grooves;
• abseiling using V-shaped braking grooves.

Guide mode allows :

• independent, self-locking belaying of one or two seconds ;
• the possibility of unlocking and gradually lowering a second climber while the rope is under tension, by inserting the carabiner of a quickdraw into the hole provided.

Caution! Read the device instructions carefully before use.

The ALPINE UP must be used with the carabiner supplied, the CONCEPT SGL HC, which has an anti-wear anodized surface treatment and features the ACL system to prevent any work on the small axis.
