EDELRID OHMEGA: Introducing the Future of Belaying

Advertorial: Discover the OHMEGA โ€“ compact, smart, and safe. Weighing just 190โ€ฏg, this versatile brake assistant from EDELRID transforms your climbing experience, whether you're at the gym, the crag, or an alpine sport climbing route. Designed for rope parties of all levels, the OHMEGA offers enhanced safety and comfort for both climber and belayer โ€“ with or without weight difference.

Its integrated HMPE sling allows for quick switching between three braking levels, adapting perfectly to your needs. The built-in pulley reduces friction at the first bolt, making clipping smoother and climbs more fluid, even on long and difficult routes. Thanks to its short sling and minimal activation distance, dynamic and soft belaying becomes effortless โ€“ reducing the risk of injuries and ground falls.

Whether you're a beginner or a pro, the OHMEGA supports you in every fall scenario. Itโ€™s simple, lightweight, and opens up a whole new way of belaying.

The key features at a glance:
  • Compact and lightweight โ€“ only 190 g
  • Versatile use โ€“ from indoor climbing gyms to alpine sport climbing routes
  • Three braking levels โ€“ from +10 kg to + 30 kg
  • Integrated pulley minimizes friction at the first bolt
  • Brakes even when falling directly into the device
