Petzl Neox unboxing

I'm super psyched to be offering a first look at the new Neox device from Petzl! I've been a long time user of the Grigir (I've basically been using it since I started climbing back in 2004.) I think this device will be perfect to give to newer lead belayers and experienced belayers that haven't used an assisted breaking device, but only time will tell!

I find your opinions on things are well thought out. Really enjoy your videos and I’m excited to see how you feel about the new device. I’m also stoked to see petzl thinks highly of your content too or so it seems if they sent you some expensive stuff haha

I hope I get the fancy box when my NEOX (does Petzl insist on the CAPS?) arrives. Placed an order on their website the other day.

I'm suspecting the "finger on top" method with the grigri really twist my rope. It's really noticeable on multi pitches where I'll start getting into trouble already on the second pitch.
So if you can belay from above with the Neox it could be a worth a ipdate for me

I remember that day at Cochise, that was a great send 👊

Love to know what you think about it once you're able to use it some more. I used one tonight for a few hours and I think I still prefer my Revo for single pitch climbing but I do think this is likely a more robust unit. The packaging and warnings that came along with the Revo make me treat it pretty gingerly ...
