The Best Belay Devices: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) · Outdoors & Fitness
Edelrid Mega Jul II
A clever stainless steel tube that claims the whole job list, and asks you to learn a device-specific technique for every part of it.
Why we skip it: The approved rope diameter stops at 10.0 mm, so a lot of gym and workhorse sport ropes are outside the certified range, and this is the single most checkable reason to walk away.
