Black Diamond Big Air XP Belay Package | ATC-XP Device & RockLock Carabiner

Reliable belay setup for sport and trad climbing

The Black Diamond Big Air XP Package combines an ATC-XP belay/rappel device with a RockLock locking carabiner, delivering a complete belay solution that travels with you from indoor walls to rugged alpine days. It's designed to support both new climbers building a solid kit and experienced climbers upgrading gear, offering trusted rope handling and dependable belay transitions. Expect a compact, ergonomic feel in your hand and smooth rope flow as you move between belay positions.

In real-world use, the setup exudes a calm reliability: the device sits comfortably in the palm, while the carabiner glides through clipping and rope changes with minimal snagging. This combination aims to help you maintain control on varied terrain, whether you’re topping out a steep route or coordinating a partner on a longer climb.

Two friction modes for adjustable control

• High-friction mode delivers smoother handling and enhanced stopping power on challenging terrain, aiding control on steeper pitches.
• Standard friction mode provides a dependable baseline for everyday belays and rappels, balancing speed and precision across routes.

With the ATC-XP, you can tailor your technique to the moment, selecting the mode that matches rope diameter and route demands. The system’s design points toward improved leverage and handling, especially on longer or more demanding climbs.

Rugged, climb-ready construction

• The ATC-XP is hot-forged aluminum, built for repeated use across gym walls, crags, and alpine approaches.
• RockLock locking carabiner features a large HMS-style opening, a snag-free keylock nose, and an ergonomic shape for smooth clipping and secure belay transitions.

Together, these components provide consistent rope flow and reliable belay performance, whether you’re belaying a partner on a single-pitch route or managing belay lines on a multi-pitch ascent. The kit is designed to endure the rigors of daily practice while remaining approachable for climbers expanding their kit.

Versatility for belay, rappel, and top-rope tasks

• Works with a wide range of rope diameters, making it suitable for single-pitch, multi-pitch, and top-rope sessions.
• Use it for belaying partners, rappelling, or as a dependable backup in your climbing kit—ready when you are.
