MammutSmart 2.0 Belay Device

I've had to use a grigri a few times and I do not like having moving parts in a belay device. This thing feels great to belay with (top rope or sport). Much more comfortable than other devices I've used before. Would recommend!

Easy to use great product

Easy to use and quick to take or feed rope. Extra safety over an ATC is great too. Glad it comes in orange now to match the rest of my hardware.

Def a learning curve just like any auto locking belay device compared to atc just on descending climbers and giving out slack for leading climbers. I’ve only climbed indoors so far and love this device for top rope because it makes things much smoother with the thicker ropes my gym has. When setting the belay device for top rope I simply filter the end of the rope into the mammut and carabiner attached to my harness quick n simple and tie off a safety knot. I just got into lead climbing and I’m a bit fidgety when giving out slack as I don’t like to keep the device open for long with my thumb so it can be stressful at times when I’m short roping my friends when they’re clipping due to the auto lock coming down on me when trying to be quick with it. With lead belay setup you have to detach the entire device then attach the device with the rope inserted back to ur carabiner. When bringing down climbers on lead you need to find the sweet spot on the way you angle the device with ur thumb and control the pace of the descent with ur break hand. (Ive lost control here and there nothin catastrophic but one close call when trying out a new carabiner that was thinner then my OG one)I’d recommend it but I’m still exploring my options. I prefer the smoothness of my black diamond atc over mammut on lead belay but it does not have the added safety that I want. I plan on putting it up against the edelrid giga jul soon since some prefer it over the grigri

I use it as a rappelling device for saddle hunting and it works great. It’s a much more affordable option not the mad rock safeguard and it’s in stock.

It is a little picky on the carabiner you use but once find the right one, it’s solid.

Added to my saddle hunting arsenal easy repell with a hollow blocker.

The Mammut Smart has long been my favorite belay device, with the only drawback being the jerky lowering action. 2.0 has solved that problem!

Muy buen producto, mammut es muy confiable y sus diseños me encantan

Top, super

Ich nutze das Smart 2.0 für die Sicherung von Kletterpartner:innen im Toprope und Vorstieg in Kletterhallen in-/outdoor.Im Gegensatz zu zB dem Grigri bevorzuge ich die mechanische Einfachheit. Es gibt keine Scharniere, Gelenke etc., gerade im Vorstieg ist die Handhabung sehr unkompliziert und ermöglicht eine schnelle und reibungslose Seilausgabe. Bei entsprechender Einweisung und Beachtung der Nutzungshinweise ist das Smart laut einschlägiger Tests sehr sicher. Die Anschaffung eines passenden Karabiners empfiehlt sich, idealerweise auch von Mammut.

Questo prodotto è indiscutibilmente facile da usare e offre un'elevato grado di sicurezza anche quando inavvertitamente le mani di chi assicura non dovessero essere sulla corda

This is pre-use, so not a definitive review. It was time to consider a 1-rope device, and this is closer to my old ATC than a Gri-gri would be. Looks well-made/designed and easy to adapt to, but some climbing is needed to be sure.
