One device to do it all, the ATC-Guide offers maximum versatility. It has a smooth, regular friction side and, for twice the friction, a grooved side. When you’re belaying from above, the “guide mode” lets you bring up one or two seconding climbers with ease and control. For lowering, it has a small secondary hole that you can girth hitch for more leverage to release the device.
- Regular Friction Mode for normal climbing and rappelling- High Friction Mode provides two times more friction for greater control and holding power - In Guide Mode it locks if someone falls and has lowering capabilities - Unique release point built into the unit
