Classic pitons for thinner cracks, these have precision ground blades so that a consistent taper is achieved. There are two clip-in holes for corner placements and to save a little weight.

The Black Diamond Angle Pitons are made to fit larger cracks, pockets and pods. Their design, coupled with the springiness of the steel used gives these pitons inherently high holding power.
The Black Diamond Bugaboo Pitons are the bigger and stronger brother to the knife blades, for when the cracks get fractionally bigger.
The Black Diamond Pecker Pitons are designed to be used where knife blade pitons won’t fit or where the placement is more feeble. Due to the design of the peg the force is pulled downwards meaning that the pecker has to be pulled right through the crack for it to fail. Absolutely essential for big wall climbing and aid climbing.
The Black Diamond Zodiac Gear Sling is essential for carrying a large aid rack. The Zodiac is low profile, allowing you to still wear a water bladder rucksack, but still padded enough to take 5kg of gear in comfort.
The DMM Daisy Chains are 135cm Dynatec daisy chains for aid climbing progression. Full strength end to end, while the pockets are designed to hold body weight only, and should not be used to anchor directly to the belay.
The Metolius 5 Step Aider is made from 25mm flat nylon webbing that is reinforced with Biothane (the stuff good haul bags are made from) to stiffen the steps, ensuring they always stay open for easy foot placement. The Aider has a classic, staggered, triangular step construction with useful sub-steps in the 2 top steps. This 5 Step Aider is tough, durable and functional with a reinforced clip-in point, full-strength grab loop and a dedicated clip-in point at the bottom for enchaining aiders without collapsing the bottom step.
The OCUN Crack Gloves Lite are an improved version of the already excellent OCUN crack glove. A redesigned shape has increased comfort on the hand. Other improvements include a rubber cover over the Velcro fastening that helps to prevent it becoming undone whilst in use. The gloves are constructed of microfiber stretch suede and a highly sensitive adhesive rubber that provides maximum friction.
The Yates Copper Double Head is intended for use in vertical cracks. They are more difficult to bash into a seam, but provide greater holding power than aluminium heads, therefor tend to be used in shallower and more tenuous placements. This double version is ideal for smears that are long and narrow.
