Grivel didn't just design the Stealth Climbing Helmet to look like your expedition tent because it's cool; this helmet's unique style amplifies airflow to give you what Grivel considers the best ventilation out of any climbing helmet. This helmet also boasts a lightweight and hard polycarbonate shell paired with impact-absorbing foam for optimal protection that you'll appreciate when you're about to punt off the crux.

No climber is fully prepared without some Mammut Accessory Cord. Whether you're gearing up in anticipation of a prusik or just slinging your chocks and nuts, Mammut's cord comes in both four and six millimeter sizes. Low stretch and ease of tying make this stuff the chosen spaghetti of the climbing gods.

Black Diamond's Raven is a classic ice axe redesigned for modern mountaineering, and the Raven Ice Axe + Grip adds greater security that you can rely on when you're in high, icy places. Modern updates include a lighter feel, redesigned geometry, and a better handle whether you're ascending steep, icy couloirs or traversing glaciers. The investment-cast, curved, stainless steel head's shape improves handling for traverses, and it has a large hole for carabiners of any size. The dual-density, molded grip gives comfy traction, and the Slider Leash solidifies security so you can breathe a little easier through the cruxiest sections of the climb.

With Sterling's Evolution VR9 Rope you can have smooth handling and reliable quality without having to detract from your savings account. Its versatile diameter is a great option for multi-pitch routes, redpoint burns, or long approaches when you want to save some weight. The DryCore technology prevents the core from absorbing moisture, just in case you get caught in a rainstorm, and the middle marker makes it easy to find the middle of the rope when setting up rappels.

The Vision Helmet is Black Diamond's most durable foam helmet for climbing, and this Vision MIPS Helmet adds a Multi-directional Impact Protection System for an even greater level of safety. The Vision also has an updated design to the innovative hybrid construction that climbers have been enjoying for seasons. The polycarbonate shell covers a larger portion of the crown, and there's a layer of EPS foam underneath for added crown protection. EPP foam covers the rest of the helmet for multi-impact protection.

The Black Diamond Vapor Helmet is now lighter than ever, making us forget we have anything clipped to our head at all. The webbing and cord harness system saves grams and space in our pack yet gives us infinite adjustments for a snug, made-for-us fit that won't slip or shift when we dyno or get horizontal. As we chase the sunset to the last pitch, the large side vents help us keep our cool, while the tough top cap gives us reliable protection as our partner battles the final crux above. When the sun goes down, the low-profile clips secure our headlamp for a well-lit rap.

Mammut's Wall Rider is the first climbing helmet with Multi-directional Impact Protection System to maximize safety from impacts caused by tumbling rocks and falls. MIPS is a low-friction, slip-plane layer that rotates independently around your head to drastically reduce impacts off angled crashes. This revolutionary technology isn't the only feature that makes the Wall Rider innovative. Its hybrid construction pairs a softer EPP core (exposed around the sides) with a hard shell up top to provide protection from both falling rocks and hitting the side of your head on the rock after falling. This hybrid construction also keeps the Wall Rider at a comfortably light eight ounces, and there are …

We tie in with the Aquila for optimal comfort from bolted routes to clean cracks. The wider waist evenly distributes pressure from our larger frame, letting us figure out beta without distracting hot spots, while the thin, flexible padding follows our every twist and bend.

We love that Black Diamond shaved a quarter of the weight off its best-selling camming device to make the Camalot Ultralight more appropriate for long approaches and alpine climbing. A critical glance will show that each cam weighs a couple ounces less than its appropriately sized C4 counterpart, and although that doesn't seem like much, when you're hauling three number threes up Castleton's North Face, numerous threes and fours for Lone Peak's Hyperform, or a desert rack up Washer Woman, these ultralight beauties really make a world of difference. Black Diamond achieved a lighter weight out of the already light C4 by replacing the stem with continuous Dyneema rope infused in plastic. Black …

The Boa Climbing Rope has been Edelrid's best-seller for seasons because it's so versatile for beginner sport climbers and advanced trad climbers. Its narrow diameter balances easy handling with a light weight to appease beginners and advanced climbers alike. Edelrid treated this standard climbing rope with Thermo Shield for ideal handling out of the bag.

An impressive 20% lighter than its predecessor, the Salathe Lite gives us protection we forget is there. Built with a new shell material, this helmet delivers on strength and impact-resistance at a much lower weight, while the ergonomic interior gives us a more low-profile fit.
