Product Description
Assorted Colors This item is a cosmetic blemish. It is fully functional, strength tested, and warranted. We usually cannot even tell what the blemish is, but are happy to pass the savings on this item on to you! The ATC-XP offers two modes of use so you can give a smooth ride to anyone. Deep, cleated V-grooves provide higher friction for catching heavier climbers or when using smaller ropes in icy conditions. Its thick walls and smooth curves make it incredibly rope-friendly. Use the regular-friction side when belaying lighter climbers, for long rappels on slabs or when you need a little less friction for smoother feeds. Because friction generates heat, the ATC-XPs swanky gel logos insulate your fingers from skin-burning heat during rappels. This is a versatile device that offers a tremendous bite and is excellent for all-season use.Belay/rappel device with exceptional holding power Great for use with ropes of different diametersmdash;8.1ndash;11 mmThick rope-bearing radii reduce rope wear Weight: 89 gr (3.1 oz)

 Great belay device - BUT only if brand new March 26, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have years of experience belaying climbers, and hands down this is my favorite device. It's a little heavier than other ATC's, but it works great and is one of the smoothest when belaying someone bigger/heavier than you. This device can be a little more expensive than others, but due to it's increased comfort whilst belaying, it is well worth it.
HOWEVER, you should never accept or buy a piece of climbing equipment that is not brand spanking new. I don't care what others say, only brand new equipment is acceptable. NOT factory seconds. If you're some poor climber living at Camp 4, then sure, you've got to use what you can, but for the average person out there, do not settle for anything less than brand new. Can't stress this enough.
 poor response March 8, 2008
the product came in a different color than pictured, when I called I found out that it was factory seconds (imperfect but still working), neither of these was made clear to me when purchasing the item. With shipping the product cost the same as one at my local gym (not factory seconds) so there was no savings for me to get an inferior product. WHen I called to return it they tried to talk me into keeping it instead of making me happy.
