For belaying both lead and top rope climbers . Optimized for top rope climbing with a lockable selector knob that allows you to choose top rope belay mode, making it easier to take up slack and providing a more comfortable belay. Stainless steel wear plate provides great durability for intensive use. Cam-assisted blocking fo r a more comfortable belay : when the climber falls or weights the system, the rope tightens, and the cam pivots to pinch and block the rope Rope installation diagrams engraved on both the inside and outside of the device. Top-rope or lead belay mode is chosen with a selector knob. GRIGRI + is a cam-assisted blocking device for climbing in the gym or outside. Review: Great for beginners and experienced climbers. Has top safety features and easy to use - I bought this as my girlfriend had recently gotten into climbing, and I wanted her to feel safe and confident belaying me as I’m 90+ kg and she’s rather petite. Anyone that has used a GriGri in the past will know that it’s self locking mechanism never fails. And gives the climber and the belayer added confidence when climbing. The GriGri + does a little more than that. It has a panic switch when the belayer is letting the climber down, if they go too far on the lever it’ll self lock again and you have to put it back to the start position to start descending again. This stops an inexperienced belayer from putting the lever into maximum decent and slamming you into the ground if they freeze with it fully open. Another feature the GriGri+ has is you can change its modes between top rope, and lead climb. In top rope the device feels more grippy, and tight. In Lead climb it loosens up a bit and you are able to give slack more freely without the device locking. All in all a great addition to anyone’s climbing equipment bag. Worth the somewhat steep price. Oh and my girlfriend loved the pink! Review: The standard just got a little bit better. - I've used six different assisted breaking devices for belaying for sport climbing (mostly top rope) and I'd place it in joint first with the Black Diamond ATC Pilot. As with all ABDs that cam lock the rope, it does take a while to get used to the device, especially when lead climbing and giving slack (so as to not accidentally engage the cam). Taking in slack is simple, and not all that different to a normal tuber belay device. Lowering is accomplished by using the side lever, with the more you open it the faster the rope will go through. If you panic and pull the lever too far the GriGri+'s anti-panic feature kicks in and re-engages the cam lock, at which point you have to fully close the lever before you can start to lower again. The regular GriGri does not have this anti-panic feature. An ABD like the GriGri+ is no substitute for good belaying technique, but having a backup is never a bad idea. ## Features - PROGRESSIVE DESCENT CONTROL: 3:1 mechanical advantage of the camming mechanism helps smoothly control the rope and reduce lowering efforts regardless of rope diameter. - ANTI-PANIC HANDLE: If the user pulls too hard on the handle, the anti-panic function engages, stopping the climber's descent. Great for newer belayers and partners with large weight differences. - MULTIPLE BELAY MODES: The lockable selector knob allows you to choose either top rope or lead belay mode. Top rope belay mode makes taking in slack easier and long belay sessions more comfortable. - STEEL WEAR PLATE: The stainless steel wear plate provides extra protection for the high-wear area on the GRIGRI (near the brake side of the rope). - International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01MXORFUD | | Best Sellers Rank | 153,866 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) 55 in Belay & Rappel Equipment | | Brand Name | PETZL | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 837 Reviews | | Item Weight | 0.2 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Petzl | | Manufacturer Part Number | D13A AG | | Model Number | D13A AG | ## Product Details - **Brand:** PETZL - **Colour:** Orange - **Item weight:** 0.2 Kilograms - **Material:** Aluminium Stainless Steel Nylon - **Shape:** D-Shape ## Images ![PETZL Grigri - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/616fVEdPUQL.jpg) ![PETZL Grigri - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71TfwJQJozL.jpg) ![PETZL Grigri - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61DO8qKLACL.jpg) ![PETZL Grigri - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61x+I2g-vnL.jpg) ![PETZL Grigri - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61jwpkeTE2L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the difference between grigri 2, grigri3, and grigri+? is there a "best option"?** A: Google will give you way more comprehensive answers than here, and videos. But, short answer, the + has anti panic so your belayer will have a much harder time dropping you to the deck, it's the one I make my kids use. I use a 2 if I need a grigri for myself though. **Q: Can i tree climb with hand ascenders and lower myself with this grigri device or should i get the id?** A: You could. Hand ascenders do mess up your ropes. Other devices needed to ascend. This is a good device for lowering. **Q: Can you use this on a stadic line ?** A: yes, it works fine with my static **Q: I'm a beginner climber interested in climbing for long-term. should i get the grigri or the grigri+?** A: I prefer the regular over the plus for most applications, but the plus is nice when I have newer climbers or my kids belaying me. so.... both lol, the answer is both haha ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for beginners and experienced climbers.

I have not used the older versions but the brake lock if you over-pull it I can see being a lifesaver and the two modes for top rope and lead climbing work well. ## Frequently Bought Together - Petzl GRIGRI + Belay Device with Cam-Assisted Blocking and Anti-Panic Handle, Suitable for Learners and Intensive Use - Orange - Petzl Sm'D Carabiner - Versatile, Lightweight, Compact, D-Shaped Locking Carabiner for Rock and Ice Climbing - PETZL - William, Locking Carabiner for Belaying --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/49996770-petzl-grigri](https://www.desertcart.it/products/49996770-petzl-grigri) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-06-26*
