Device for Lead Rope Solo Climbing. That's the main device you need for going alone with a rope, to climb a route.

El Mudo 3.0 has been redesigned to offer more breaking power, with any brand of rope, so now there's no creep when you're hanging on the rope.
It also allows the use of ropes with a diameter from 9.4 to 10.5 (the best results are with ropes from 9.4 to 9.8 mm).

We take the security and performance very seriously, when buying the El Mudo you are buying a great device that was carefully engineered and deeply tested by real climbers, some of them with more than 40 years of being active in the sport.

Thank you for the feedback and comments, we re-engineer many parts of the device, to better fit your needs out there in your next adventure.
