The Rab Outcast 44 is an excellent backpack for sport climbing, providing quick and easy access to your gear when moving between routes. It features a book-style opening and is packed full of great features like a reinforced clip-stick holder, a rope tarp and an external zipped guidebook pocket. It features Rab's TRI-FLEX™ carry system, an internal spring steel frame helps transfer the weight to the lumbar and hip belt for a supportive carry. Built from tough 840D ballistic nylon and 420D nylon, the Outcast 44 climbing pack is robust and durable with reinforcement in high-wear areas and a sleek aesthetic.

The Raumer Wing Hanger with Ring is bent at 40° to allow easier clipping.  The stainless steel AISI 316L round ring is 10mm in diameter. The internal diameter of the ring is an optimum 32mm, designed to save weight and bulk without impacting on versatility. The ring hangs perpendicular to the face which means top-roping systems can be set up on either side and rope retrieval is easy: a very worthy advantage!

The Black Diamond ATC-XP is versatile and durable belay device with multiple friction modes. It has added grooves for use with thinner ropes that offers increased safety as they provide more friction and therefore more holding force when putting the rope in a brake position to hold a fall or when abseiling. The ATC XP also has a regular friction mode that is suitable for use with thicker ropes. The ATC-XP is now 30% lighter than the original design, thanks to its updated construction and machined windows through the body.

The DMM Pivot belay device delivers confident belaying and effective stopping power whether used in guide mode, or belaying from the waist. Guide plates have traditionally been difficult to operate when lowering seconds. The Pivot's shackle reduces the force needed to initiate lowering, increasing control of the speed at which you lower your second.

The Petzl Reverso is a versatile and lightweight belay/rappel device designed for use with one or two rope strands and the ability to belay a second climber from the anchor. The specific design allows the rope to glide smoothly through the device and reduces wear. It is compatible with most rope diameters: single 8.5 to 10.5 mm, half 7.1 to 9.2 mm, and twin 6.9 to 9.2 mm.

The Beal DynaConnexion is a dynamic rope sling with sewn endings for use in big wall climbing and mountaineering. It has been developed by André Laperriere of the Mountain and Rock Climbing Federation of Quebec, it has a breaking load 22 kN and its seams are protected by a thermo-retractable sheath. The DynaConnexion is perfect for use on long routes or in mountaineering to shortlink into the belay, to facilitate rappelling or to extend a runner whilst climbing.

The Beal DynaDoubleclip is a double dynamic rope lanyard with sewn endings for belaying and rappelling during big wall climbing and mountaineering. For added safety and durability, its seams are protected by a moulded sheath. It is lightweight, compact and is great for facilitating manoeuvres when rappelling, climbing or mountaineering.

The Beal Dynaloop is a dynamic rope sling that measures 8.3mm in diameter. Reaching the EN 566 standard, it can be used for equalising a belay, clipping in, or extending an anchor point. The benefit of using rope slings over webbing is that the core is protected from UV and abrasion damage by the outer sheath.
