Description
We decided to use steel wherever necessary with all products that are used together with ropes when climbing. Hard-wearing steel prevents premature wear from rope friction and burrs or sharp edges and thus makes long-lasting, but prolongs the lifetime of ropes. The Giga Jul is particularly light and simultaneously robust and abrasion resistant. This is made possible by a smart hybrid construction of aluminum and steel. The main body of the Giga Jul is made from particularly light aluminum. Parts which are at risk of wear (for example the friction channels) are made from robust stainless steel. Another chapter in our Steel Story. By moving the green slider, the Giga Jul is instantly transformed from an assisted braking tuber to a standard tuber. 150 years of passion and enthusiasm for mountain sports, 150 years of ingenuity and pioneering innovations, 150 years of Made in Germany.

This has become my go-to belay device.
After a bunch of research, I purchased the Edelrid GigaJul for gym and real-rock sport climbing. This device is super versatile, but what I like most about it, is the fact that it locks up solid on a fall. For lead climbing, paying out and taking in slack is an afterthought since the device feels like a standard ATC. When lowering, the thumb hook lever works well to control the rate of descent. Our group of climbers liked this device so much that everyone has purchased a Gigajul. Of course there is a slight learning curve to this device, but it’s little more than one would encounter learning to use an ATC.

Extremely versatile
My new favorite belay device. I have climbed for 30 years and have tried them all. This is my new go-to device in almost every situation. It doesn't auto block as well as a grigri, but feeds out slack much easier and can be used for double rope rappels. It's also quicker and easier to "unlock" after a fall than the grigri or virgo. This is nice when your buddy is hangdogging all the way up a project. Guide mode works just as well as any, and when switched to manual mode offers the same touch as my guide ATC. Edelrid says it's "The Most Versatile Belay Device Ever." I agree. I still think the grigri wins if you're doing long top-roping sessions, and a guide ATC is probably a little better in the alpine, but this is a device that shines on long trad routes, and can be used effectively everywhere else as well. 5/5 stars.

Favorite belay device
Easy to use, great for lead or sport, indoor or outdoor. Used on trad multi pitch, sport multi pitch. Easy repel, works well in guide mode. Solid piece of gear. Assisted break works well, but slips a little more then my old megajuul.

Jack Of All Trades…
Jack of all trades… master of none. This is the best “all around “, “do it all” belay device that we’ve ever owned. In fact my wife and I each have one. The important thing to remember is that when you’re trying to be pretty good at most things, it’s hard to be really great at any one specific task. And that holds true with the GigaJul. It’s pretty good at everything. But it’s not the best at any one thing. As with all belay devices, the rope you use will have an impact on it’s performance. We use Tendon ropes. And 90% of the time we are using a Tendon Master Pro 9.2mm rope. (Which is the best all around cord on the market IMHO) . Lead Belaying from the ground is great with the GigaJul, it feeds well, you can pay out slack quickly with no issues. And the assisted breaking works just fine. Top rope belaying is a little tougher though. It’s harder to pull slack through than other tube style devices. There’s more friction for some reason. And the extra effort it takes can wear your arms out after a while. And over the course of a full day of climbing, it will take a toll on you. When using it in guide mode (belaying a second climber from above) its great. No issues. It works pretty much just like an ATC Guide. There may be a little bit more resistance when pulling slack through, but it’s not bad at all. The GigaJul’s performance while rappelling was the real surprise for me. It took some getting used to, and changing some of my techniques, but now it’s the only device I use for rappelling. In the past, when I was still using the DMM Pivot or Wild Country Pro Lite Guide, i would always extend my rappel and use a prusik. Especially if I was cleaning a route. I tried that same technique with the GigaJul initially, and found it to be less than ideal. Then I saw a YouTube video of a guy who used the GigaJul and he rappelled with it directly on his belay loop. He also put it in auto locking mode and didn’t use a prusik. I tried that out the next time I used it to rappel, and it worked perfectly. You have to get used to the mechanics of it, but I think it’s worth the effort. I back up my belay loop with a sling, and am good to go. And the assisted breaking feature works great on a rappel. I haven’t used a prusik or “third hand” since I started using the GigaJul like this for rappels. I feel completely comfortable doing things that, but you should definitely always do whatever you think is the safest thing for yourself and your situation. So the GigaJul is not the best at any one thing (except maybe as a rappel device imho), but it’s pretty good at most things. It’s the best “do it all” device I’ve seen so far. I would suggest that you make checking the position of the auto locking slider part of your standard safety checks though. You definitely want to know for sure which mode it is in before you start climbing. I definitely recommend giving this thing a shot. The level of functionality it provides at this price point is simply unmatched in my opinion.

Used it for belaying A LOT and it’s held up extremely well
I work as an instructor at a gym and I got it to be multi use, when belaying kids they were always too light for the grigri, or my pilot, and sometimes even standard ATC’s. This guy does it all. For my adult friends, the assisted brake is wicked to have both on lead and top rope. Paying out rope is so smooth and seamless especially in brake mode. I even use it for top rope solo (self belay) and damn does it lock really really well. Only downside being you have to pull your own slack, but for what it does Im mighty impressed

Best of all worlds.
Easy to use in both modes. provides solid assisted braking and feeds smoothly in manual mode. No need to carry multiple devices when trad climbing anymore!

Cheaper and intuitive, great alternative of GriGri
If you are used to ATC type of belaying and don't quite like Grigri (like me), this one is smooth af and gives extra layer of protection and free your arm from long proj. (But don't let your break hand go)

Versatile
Sure this thing has a little more weight to it compared to an ATC or a Reverso, but it has more functionality than those and it’s way lighter than many other assisted braking devices like a gri gri. It should wear out slower than those lightweight aluminum devices since the wear parts are reinforced with steel. Kudos to Edelrid for coming up with such a cool versatile device. I like it.
