Petzl Reverso 3

Possibly the most versatile belay and abseil device on the market today.  This is the evolution of the original reverso and follows the same lightweight ethos.

This is a great belay device for multi-pitch climbers and mountaineers as it easily adapts to different belay techniques and between ropes.  It allows independent and simultaneous belaying of one or two seconding climbers in Reverso mode.  The 'reverso' direct belay mode means the belayer can be safely out of the system whilst maintaining full control.   Its adaptable design means quick and easy change-overs from Reverso mode to belaying the leader when climbing multi-pitch routes.  The ridged channels help grip skinnier diameter ropes without locking up.  In short the Reverso is simple, adaptable, lightweight and effective - possibly the best all round belay/abseil device around.
