The Beal Birdie is a compact, brake-assisted belay device that's great for sport climbing and top roping. It's 100% metal construction with a stainless steel forged cam allows for much greater durability compared to other similar devices on the market. The Birdie allows for rope to exit along a straight axis which prevents and twisting or pig-tailing. Ergonomic and easy to use, the Birdie is an excellent choice for both beginners and more experienced climbers.
The Edelrid Ohm introduces a novel concept: an assisted braking and friction-enhancing device designed to address the challenge of a heavier climber paired with a lighter belayer. This innovation aims to prevent unexpected falls or collisions, ensuring climbers can trust their belayers for confident execution of challenging manoeuvres. Typically, a recommended weight difference between climbing partners is around 30%, but the Ohm significantly enhances this ratio.
