Cinch Belay Device popular Average Rating : 4.24/5
In: Gear: Essential Equipment: Belay Devices & DescendersOnce you learn to use a Cinch you'll never go back to a Gri Gri.

The Cinch feeds amazingly well and catches on thin ropes way better than a gri gri. Lowering is fine once you've become accustom to it. (A bit more touchy than a Gri Gri, but not bad) I've used both devices for a number of years and the Gri Gri has lost it's place on my rack to the Cinch. I love the Cinch! If you get one read the instructions carefully so that you use the proper technique and can give the best belay. I think there used to be some instruction vids on the Trango site to help out.

This shoe is awesome! Super light and climbs so well you might forget to put on your climbing shoes. I love these things.

Best shoe hands down! To make it better, 5.10 should put the Southwest or the new (fully covered) V10 heel on it and change the colour to something that doesn't resemble vomit. Still a killer shoe, but make the changes people have been asking for them for years!!!
