With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

An alpine style belay plate and descender that can be used for direct belays with one or two climbers. The Groove is a hot forged light alloy multipurpose tool belay and abseil device and descender in all in one, that can be used with single or double ropes and it allows to belay one or two second in belay station. When it's used like a descender, it's possible to modulate the rate of descendig with the insertion of the ropes in the two notches.
The groove is ideal for big mountaineering routes, caving and for rescue situations. It is designed to be used for direct belays (where the belayer is not in the system) and it should always be used with a compatible screwgate carabiner.
The Groove is wonderfully simple, but does require a level of expertise to use it correctly and safely. This is not a beginners belay plate!
