Creative Technology. We’ve pulled out all the stops for 2012. The new EDELRID collection combines innovative engineering, made in Germany, with outstanding creativity. We feel that this is the best EDELRID collection yet.  ÓÍ

2012 sees the introduction of our patented DuoTec technique, which 
 ËÓ marks a further milestone in innovative rope manufacturing. The two new additions to our Entrance Line feature this technique for 


ÌÓ making bi-colour ropes. Needless to say, both the Viper 9.6 mm and the Boa 9.8 mm are manufactured in accordance with the stringent   ÌÍ bluesign® standard.    ÌÑ With the Cable Vario, EDELRID is once again setting new standards for via ferrata safety. It’s the first ever via ferrata set where braking resis-   ÍÍ tance can be individually adjusted according to the weight of the user. This development is going to revolutionise the future of via ferrata sets. 

 ÎË

EDELRID’s new ice tools cover all aspects of winter mountaineering. 
  ÏË Their intelligent, modular design means that they can be adapted to suit all routes and conditions. 
 ÏÏ

EDELRID helmets go from strength to strength. Two new models,    ÐË Shield II and Zodiac, continue the winning formula of innovative tech- nology, attractive design and outstanding comfort. 
 ÑÓ

Climbing shoes have formed an important part of the EDELRID portfolio
  ÑÍ for two years now. 2012 sees the addition of four new models. The Sigwa is a top-class shoe with superb edging stability and optimal sensitivity     ÒÓ in the toe area.  ÊÓÍ The EDELRID developers have designed a completely new product ran- ge: alpine rucksacks. Two new technical packs provide a secure, positi- ve carry and a raft of sophisticated features. As you would expect, they benefit from EDELRID’s unique design for instant brand recognition.

EDELRID clothing incorporates casual, comfortable styling with robust climbing-specific detailing. The new range includes several pieces in technical performance fabrics. See, for example, the Commander soft- shell pants – an essential item in anyone’s outdoor wardrobe.

We’re proud to present such a comprehensive collection of innovative products and look forward to a successful 2012 season.

ħ æxuurshvduhhfrðiulhqgo|åð eoxhvljq hvshfwlqjwkhhqylurqphqw Quality and safety are the key to making responsible and innovative fhuwlƒhg high-performance ropes. EDELRID has been following this maxim for the past 149 years. Our ropes and experience in manufacturing them are the heart and soul of our long-established brand. urshv To further extend our quality and safety standards, we have been working with bluesign® technologies ag from Switzerland since 2009. We are the first rope manufacturer to adapt our ropes to meet the tough demands of the bluesign® standard. The bluesign® stan- dard is the most stringent environmental standard for the produc- tion of functional textiles. It is independent, internationally recogni- sed and based on the five principles of sustainability. These include resource productivity, emissions protection, safety at work and con- sumer protection. The bluesign® standard’s goal is to follow these five principles throughout the whole textile manufacturing chain.

EDELRID has set new industry benchmarks for innovative and su- stainable rope production. All the materials used to make our ropes are bluesign®-approved fabrics. We can therefore guarantee as few pollutants as possible without making any compromises in terms of functionality, quality and design. Our ropes carry the bluesign® pro- duct label thanks to their combination of certified source materials and our advanced rope production facilities in Isny. The bluesign product label is a sign of quality. It guarantees an eco-friendly ma- nufactured product that is low in pollutants and safe for heath and the environment. As such, we have responded to consumers’ natural demands for safe, environmentally friendly and sustainable products.

Ë eoxhvljqħ Three years of bluesign® allow us to draw on in-depth experience of sustainable rope production. By converting all our rope production to the tough demands of the bluesign® standard we were able to make the following efficiencies when dyeing sheath yarns:

For EDELRID this represents a further step towards a sustainable future. We have consistently pursued the task of pushing forward sustainable rope production so that we can continue to inspire trust in the future. We do not consider these measures a virtue, but a na- tural response to demands of the modern world.

As the inventor of the kernmantel rope, we continue to set new stan- dards. We can now confidently say that our ropes are eco-friendly.

The clip in buckles allow the harness to be completely opened and JÜñÜCÜÜ put on like a jacket, which is advantageous when the harness has to ~†Üfa_`l¥gYkak be put on in steep terrain or when wearing mountaineering boots or crampons . For clarity, there is color differentiation between waist and leg webbing and “left-right” tabs on the leg loops. Gear loops allow Via Ferrata sets and other pieces of gear to be clipped out of the way when not needed.

Chest harnesses should only be used in combination with a sit harness.

B]jeal „~ƒƒ A fully adjustable children’s chest harness which is ideal for use with ~‡Ü_ the Finn children’s sit harness. Because a child’s center of gravity is OOJ somewhat higher than adults, the chest harness prevents the child from ~€ ÜgYkak tipping backwards. The use of a chest harness for young children is particularly recommended as it supports and helps the child feel more ‡ÜkY`YjY¥h]ZZd]k comfortable and safe in climbing surroundings. One big advantage of this chest harness is its adjustability range, which allows the harness and child to grow together. The harness design is the classic 8-form, and is adjusted with one buckle. Chest harness should only be used in combination with a sit harness.

€‡ MaYÜ=]jjYlY 6 :YZd]ÜMYjag 80kg Via ferratas are becoming more and more popular. Including for fa- 50kg milies with children. Via ferrata sets have a shock absorber to prevent 30kg falls and minimize the risk of injury. Controlled braking (of the person falling) significantly reduces the fall factor and the resulting impact force on the body and anchor point. The current safety standard (EN 958) on via ferrata sets requires that they can withstand a 5 m fall with a weight of 80 kg and a maximum impact force of 6 kN. The maximum braking distance may not exceed 1.2 m. =gj[]Ü«cE¬ Research using test dummies has shown that shock absorbers desi- gned in accordance with EN 958 have braking distances of only a few centimetres when used by lighter persons weighing 30 kg (Fig 1). This 0 means that these via ferrata sets provide virtually no dynamic shock 0 120 absorption, and cause substantial impact forces, which could be parti- ;aklYf[]Ü«[e¬ cularly dangerous for children or lighter users (Fig 2). The EDELRID Cable Vario has a solution to this design flaw. The Cable Fig. 1: Conventional via ferrata set: braking distances with 30 kg, 50 kg and 80 kg. Vario is the first ever via ferrata set with braking resistance that can be adjusted according to the weight of the user. The Cable Vario’s core component is the newly developed and patented Variobrake. It allows 80kg braking resistance to be individually adjusted according to the user’s 50kg weight, similar to the Z-Value or release setting for ski bindings. 30kg The advantage is clear: a via ferrata set that can be adjusted to suit all users. It ensures a braking distance of 1.2 m and minimizes impact force for children and lighter users (Fig. 3) . Serious injurious caused by non-triggered energy absorbing systems is avoided. With the Cable Va- rio, EDELRID is once again setting new standards for via ferrata safety. The Cable Vario naturally includes tried and trusted EDELRID technolo- gy, such as our patented OneTouch carabiners. Together with the elasti- hwljkwhu cated webbing they ensure good handling when clipping or unclipping. The Cable Vario is a compact via ferrata set with “state of the art” safety pd{Üwrohudeohdffhodudwlrqirudwudlqhgshuvrq features. roohufrdvwhu

The experience of being surrounded by nature, the mental challenge, the summits ... used to mean more to me than climbing 20 m sport routes. We would walk past boulders shaking our heads. Due to a knee injury, I was forced to stop clim- bing for several years. Two years ago I felt the urge to climb alpine routes again. I noticed that I forget my sport routes were pretty quickly, while experiences in the mountains remained with me. Ha- ving said, that sport climbing does of course have its own particular appeal.

ƒ 9]dYqÜ\]na[]k BadgÜAmd „~„ „ A universal solid, multi-featured aluminium device for belaying and ‡Ü_ rappelling on all ropes from 7.8 to 10.5 mm. Feeds well when belaying ‡‡ ÜkdYl]Ü the leader and can be used to independently bring up to 2 seconds at the same time when climbing in a team of three. The geometric design of the Kilo Jul gives you two braking speeds and the small eyelet allows the unit to be released with a carabiner when bringing up your partner.

Amd „~ † The Jul is a beautifully styled single rope belay device with a unique ƒ€Ü_ two-component construction. The body is made of high-quality stainless ~€ ÜgYkakÜ steel offering the best possible abrasion resistance with minimal heat ~‡ÜkY`YjYÜ conduction. The synthetic cover prevents the annoying „jingling“ on the harness and protects your skin from burning after a prolonged be- ‡~„Üfa_`l lay or rappel session. An ideal belay device for sport and gym climbing €€‡Ünagd]lÜ using ropes between 8.9 and 10.5 mm.

<\\q „‚~ Since its introduction in 2005, the Eddy has established a reputation as €ƒ‡Ü_ a safe and easy to use semi-automatic belay device predominantly for ‡~„Üfa_`l sport and indoor climbing. The Eddy is simple and safe, easy to thread, with the rope logically following the rope flow. A controlled descent with an emergency brake system eliminates the „panic pull“ syndrome which can lead to serious accidents. The Eddy provides maximum sa- fety whether top roping or lead climbing with easy paying out of rope to the leader. Must be used with both hands. For use with single ropes from 9.0 to 11.0 mm diameters.

9]dYqÜ\]na[]k ƒ€ QYh¥F¥DYl „‚~‚ The Zap-O-Mat is a semi-automatic belay tool based on the tubestyle ~‚ Ü_

belay device. It is considered semi-automatic as the belayer does not ‡~„Üfa_`l have to touch the device to pay out rope evenly and quickly. The bra- king resistance of the Zap-O-Mat can be adjusted for rope size, new or old ropes, or to climbing style. When the green button is pressed in, rope can be given out faster. When the button is released, the spring in the handle is relaxed and the bolt has less resistance, increasing the braking force. The Zap-O-Mat‘s integrated carabiner arrest increases the braking power. The Zap-O-Mat is useful when working routes, top roping or when the climber is heavier than the belayer. The unit doesn’t have to be removed from the harness to thread the rope, increasing sa- fety and eliminating the risk of being dropped and lost on long routes. Useable for all single ropes from 8.9 to 10.5 mm.

9m\Ü „~„ƒ A classic redesigned sturdy piece of equipment. No further explanation ~~‡Ü_ required. For universal usage such as rappelling and belaying. ƒƒ€ÜkdYl]

€ƒ‡ÜjgqYdÜ

K]j]f[] „~„„~ A traditional piece of hardware in a modern and highly functional ‚ƒÜ_

design. The open V-form in the neck allows for exact and controlled ~€ ÜgYkak braking, and the synthetic insert holds the carabiner in place while belaying, preventing adverse horizontal forces from being transferred to the spine of the carabiner. At just 56 g, the Terence is one of the lightest in its class.
