Mega Jul

Steel vs aluminum, so this is quite normal. I use a steel carabineer with the jul2, my partner uses one of those edelrid carabineer with a insert. That seems to work too, no wear at all. If the carabiners geometry doesn't fit the Jul, it can easily dent it like in you picture, steel is way harder th

Edelrid Bruce for the mega jul 2, any small offset D for the Grigri. You do not want to use an HMS. Petzl suggests the sm'd

My MegaJul does that too. 🤷 I guess if I start having material missing from my carabiner I'll replace it. For now I think it's just street cred. 😂 I do think my MegaJul behaves better with an Edelrid Bulletproof carabiner. It's not critical though.

I also don't know of any ABDs which can feed 2 strands, would be sincerely curious if you could name any. The Edelrid mega jul and giga jul do everything a regular tube does, and they're also assisted.

i agree in principle but with a few caveats. in recent years the grigri has become sort of the defacto standard in a lot of places, and you may find that potential partners are more comfortable being belayed on grigri, especially by a newer belayer. many gyms require it. on a personal note i wouldnt

Hey there everyone, has anyone else had any issues or incidents with an Edelrid Mega Jul Belay Device?

Personlly I love the Edelrid Giga Jul of that can fir yout budget, but for sport climbing before I used Mega Jul. Giga can do more when it comes to multi-pitch thats all. I found the MegaJul a great an easy device to be used

Edelrid recently updated their Mega Jul. I'd love to try it out, but since I have a Giga Jul (which is shit if you don't use the exact right rope) and a Grigri (I don't like it, but it's workable), I don't actually need a new device.

Climbing: For indoor, you really just need your shoes, helmet and chalk bag, maybe a belay device depending on your gym. Maybe a 40 m rope for lead climbing. Get a bag/tarp to go with it if you do. Outdoor, in my region, everyone adds a helmet at a minimum. If you're only ever climbing with more exp

I generally carry two devices. I wish to carry one for those few trips where every gram counts. By the way, I was messing around with my Mega Jul today and found a different configuration for top belay. Edelrid does not approve...LOL! Bodyweight tests confirmed that it holds load even when the user
