Edelrid - Giga Jul

[@4everstela]

I still struggle a bit using this while lead belaying - it often locks while paying out slack. It’s probably me not paying out rope properly but I cant find a video showing how to do it :(

[@ukclimbingofficial]

I’d have hoped there would be one on the Edelrid website 🤔

[@michaeltrier6777]

Wha carabiner is being used in this demonstration?

[@rachaelcrewesmith8094]

I think it was an Edelrid Strike twist lock, although I can’t quite remember. I’ve been using it with a DMM Rhino and it works well. It doesn’t work so well with a DMM Sentinel: too grabby and doesn’t lock well in Jul mode.

That is a much nicer colour, and it is irritating that edilrid don't offer multiple colours

[@ukclimbingofficial]

Yeah, unfortunately it's just the one at the moment

[@sharifel-zalabany4544]

What about lead belaying? No word on how it works in that scenario

[@xklymr4395]

hopefully this one is belay the second from anchor like dmm pivot. I like mega jul but belay second is my nightmare

[@MrAussieJules]

I use the old megajul, mainly for lead belaying. With the HMS edelrid biner designed not to cross load rotate. And a regular ATC guide for top belaying. Mmm by the way, the guy looks superfit for his age, and she is v cute ;)
