Corey's Review of Petzl GRIGRI 2 Assisted Braking Belay Device

My wife and I recently started climbing. The class we took at our local gym was awesome and a great first step into this fun sport. The belay device the instructor used was a basic ATC belay device. Nothing fancy.

After speaking to a few of our friends who are avid rock climbers (professional and sponsored)...they both suggested the GriGri 2.

After only 2 climbs so far, we love the device. Especially, the assisted braking. While we haven't climbed with it a ton, we are already loving the purchase.
Pros:
  • Wife loves the color
  • Assisted braking
  • Fool proof
  • Easy to use for beginners
Cons:
  • Maybe price but you get what you pay for
Best Used for:
  • Beginners and more advanced
Would Recommend: Yes
