The Edelrid Eddy has been around for a while but has yet to gain much popularity. Compared to the most popular active assist belay devices, it weighs twice as much and costs more. The Eddy does have a few benefits over the standard GriGri: it’s smoother with thick ropes (>10.0mm), more durable, and features an anti-panic lowering mechanism. This mechanism stops the rope if the belayer pulls the handle too hard or loses control during descent. For these reasons, it’s a great choice for pure top-roping. We think the Eddy’s high weight limits its practical use to gyms and easy access crags. Its added safety features make it ideal for camps or multi-purpose gyms that introduce lots of people to climbing.
