How to Auto Belay
Enjoy safe solo climbing whenever suits your fancy with our high-wall auto belays 🔥
🔴 WHAT is an auto belay?
This is a mechanical device mounted at the top of the wall that acts as a belayer by taking up slack as you climb and gently lowering you when you’re done.
🔴 HOW does it work?
Our Perfect Descent auto belays use an innovative double-spring braking system to control the retraction and lowering speed of the lanyard (similar to a seatbelt) so that all falls are caught safely.
🔴 WHY do we have them?
Autos offer the perfect opportunity to get your climb on without needing a partner, plus they’re ideal for training laps and anyone who would like to tackle the high walls but isn’t ready for all the rope wrangling just yet 👌
Very importantly, the golden rule of auto-belaying is to never become complacent and ALWAYS check yourself before starting your climb – serious accidents can happen when climbers forget this. Follow all the steps when clipping in, make your safety checks a habit, and enjoy!
