    CHUY, the new versatile Kong tuber!

The new Chuy is a belay rappel device that works on half, twin and single ropes. 
Very light, it gives the chance to change the braking capacity thanks to the "V" shape 
notches so as to modulate the effort of the user according to its own weight, 
the rope used and all those factors that modify the friction and consequently the braking. 
It gives you a smooth feed, strong braking and great look. 
Conform to the norm EN 15151-2 for manual braking devices.
It is recomended the use of HMS screw sleeve connectors.

PANIC XL, long version of the appreciateddevice to reach the bolts further away
Duck, the multiuse rope clamp used also by Alex Honnold and Tommy Caldwell
in the latest challenge on Fitz Roy
Thanks to the great success achieved by the Panic,Kong has introduced a new longer version (15 cm more) of the handy devicenow with tape 45 cm long.Very useful in critical passages where you do not getthe bolts easily, in example during the exit from a cliff.
The special mechanism of the connector allows to lockopen the lever and close it automatically when it comes in contact with the bolt, preventing accidental opening under load.
