I used this rope for some months and its performance is wonderful, highly resistant to scratches that you can not avoid. superdry treatment is more durable than other brands i…

This baby does it all - this is my go to rope for nearly every occasion. It's fat enough to feel perfectly safe on and take beginners out without having to worry about them sh…

Alright. I've used the women's version of this harness for a long time, but I've also had to borrow my husband's, too. It's an awesome harness; both the men's and women's vers…

I climb all the time and I've been using exclusively this rope for the past ~3 years. At 9.5 mm in diameter, this rope is perfect. It's light enough for any occasion (yes, eve…

I got this rope to replace my thick 10.5mm rope that I bought when I first started climbing. The bicolor pattern is great for setting up rappels as you can easily identify th…

I have used other people's grigri2 quite a bit and I was looking to get something similar of my own. However, I didn't have the cash to buy a grigri and while searching I stu…

One of the guys I climb with hangdogs a lot. It's not that he's a bad climber, he just likes hanging around. Using a regular ATC, I'd burn through half my strength just keepin…

I got it as an early Christmas present and broke it in this past weekend on the wall. It is a comfortable tight fit and light.…

I've been climbing in this harness since it became available in the US, and I really love it. As the title says, it's light, comfortable, and best of all: breathable (thanks t…

I've had this rope for a few years now and have only really used it when I need something extremely reassuring (ie if doing a terrifying route and the last thing I want on my…

Got this rope a little over a year ago. It has been abused on several occasions and has come through unscathed. The sheath is durable but not too stiff making handling a joy.…

This is a very light and comfortable harness. The only thing that i didn't like is that the gear loops are all the way to the back. They are very strong. This is the only harn…

I used this rope for sport climbing and multipitches. It feels great when clipping, the material is very durable, lightweight and cool color. The midmark is not visible.…
- Mario, 01/21/13

You can't beat this rope. It doesn't really kink as bad as other ropes, and it feels good in your hand. I hate it when a rope feels like a prickly-pair in your hand after a…

Get this rope because it's all you need. Standard ropes are fine for us non-ice climbers. It falls into the draw, comes untied easily, and packs up small. It's easy to carry a…

I bought this rope with high expectations, all of which were satisfied! I have a 9.8 I use for projecting and hanging then I pull this rope out for the send! The 9.6 is noti…

I climb with this beaner at least 3 days a week and it has held up to all my expectations. The screwgate is fluid, sits well on the harness, and feels lighter than my other b…

Though you might not be able to tell from the picture, this pad actually has TWO vertical folds instead of just one. That means that it folds into a triangular prism instead o…

Lightweight and the concept of the way it folds is ingenious. I bought this without seeing one, but I am glad I purchased it. Large enough to fit all your gear and unfortunate…

Straight out of the package there was almost no kinking. Flaked a few times and after several outings had no trouble whatsoever. Most of the climbing I do is in Red Rock, w…

This is a nice rope. It feels sturdy and handles very well. I got it mainly for top roping and sport leading, and it's confidence-inspiring in that regard. For a large diam…

This is the best set-up I've seen in a while, super light super reliable carabiners. I like mammuts slings the best unless you need the slightly stiffer, higher abrasion-resi…

This helmet fits reasonably well and is comfortable enough to wear all day. It does sit a bit high on the head and isn't the most photogenic helmet but it will save you from a…

The low weight is good for long approaches, and small racking size gives you less clutter on your harness (triple them up to make alpine draws). There is a longer "cordalette…

In case you live in a cave, dyneema slings are about the best thing going for alpine runners. Incredibly light, very small racking, and they dont soak up water like nylon.…
