Belay Devices 3-Oct-2007 At 12:58:07 PM meinmuk

My old VC was fine, but I note that in comparison with my new device that it didn't feed out rope very quickly.

My new(ish) B-52 works well for rapping and for single and double rope autoblocks. For lead belaying, feeding out rope is a charm. I haven't yet had to catch a lead fall on it, but note that when lowering my mate who is ~90kg, that the rope can go through the device pretty fast. I wonder if catching a heavy climber taking a whipper is going to be a problem. Any experience out there?
