The Petzl Shunt works as a rappel back-up and is used below the rappel device. The Shunt replaces self-jamming knots like the Prussik and works on single and double ropes. The Shunt has smooth clamping surfaces which won't damage your rope. Designed for multi-pitch climbing and aid climbing the Shunt can also be used for mountaineering.
The Petzl Verso is a lightweight and compact belay device that can be used with one or two rope strands and also for rappelling. The Verso is the lightest belay device in Petzl's range and is easy to use. Its design allows the rope to glide smoothly through the device, reduces wear and is compatible with most rope diameters.
