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.

Black Diamond achieved a lighter weight out of the already light C4 by replacing the stem with continuous Dyneema rope infused in plastic. Black …

Sometimes an all-aluminum axe just isn't burly enough to get the job done. Camp USA's Corsa Nanotech Ice Axe combines the ultra-low weight of an aluminum ice axe with the excellent hard-ice penetration of a steel axe. The 8. 8-ounce Corsa Nanotech uses aluminum construction in the shaft and head but includes a light, strong Nanoflex steel pick and spike for better hard snow and ice penetration.

The Turbolock is a progress capture pulley designed to be exceptionally compact, robust and efficient. Specifically contoured for operation with one hand. The locking mechanism for opening and closing allows the rope to be inserted without removing the device from the anchor and it cannot be opened when the pulley is loaded to prevent accidental openings during use.

Our most sophisticated quickdraw for sport climbing at the highest level.

The SphereLock closure is an upgrade to the traditional keylock system with an even cleaner nose profile. The Dyon Mixed Express KS …

The Petzl Summit Evo Ice Axe is an all-round, well-balanced tool for multi-discipline days spent in the mountains.

The steel adze and hot-forged steel head and pick are plenty durable, with the pick featuring teeth on the upper part to allow for solid anchoring. The bottom spike is made of stainless steel, enabling it to be plunged into harder, icier snow. Both the top and bottom feature holes for clipping carabiners, letting you create anchors quickly and easily.
