Compared to the classic ATC Guide, this Alpine version is \u003cstrong\u003elighter and more compact\u003c\/strong\u003e, a difference that is concretely felt when handling gear with gloves or at exposed belay stations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility and technical performance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe device accepts \u003cstrong\u003eropes from 6.9 mm up to 9 mm in diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e, with an optimal range stated between \u003cstrong\u003e8.1 and 8.5 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e: the ideal balance point between controlled glide and effective braking, suitable for the twin and half ropes typical of alpine ascents. The geometry of the channels ensures calibrated friction even with thin and potentially icy ropes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFunctionality at belay and during descents\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to the \u003cstrong\u003eguide mode\u003c\/strong\u003e, the ATC-Alpine Guide allows you to belay \u003cstrong\u003eone or two second climbers directly from the belay station\u003c\/strong\u003e in auto-blocking mode, freeing up your hands during maneuvers. It also allows for \u003cstrong\u003erappelling\u003c\/strong\u003e, making it a versatile device that covers essential functions in a single tool. A rational choice for those who want to reduce the weight of their harness without sacrificing operational flexibility at altitude.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BLACK DIAMOND","offers":[{"title":"Green","offer_id":53225493528842,"sku":"620047","price":29.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/4357\/8378\/files\/620047.jpg?v=1781695565","url":"https:\/\/www.verticalshop.eu\/en-it\/products\/black-diamond-atc-alpine-guide-belayrappel-device-620047","provider":"Vertical Sport","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
