This ATC & locking 'biner are useful for all belaying & rappelling. The "jaws" are great for extra resistance & to avoid slippage of the rope, especially if your climber outweighs you.
Use product sport climbing trad climbing and also bring it with me to the gym. Great Black Diamond product, can't go wrong with it.
Solid pieces of equipment and at a good price. Combination of the two work well together and it is easy to move rope through the belay device. Good stopping power, the grooves seems to catch quicker and hold stronger.
First one of these I bought and didn't borrow someone else's. It has a lot of friction which is nice because I'm pretty small.
