The NEOX was recently launched by Petzl, so we unboxed one as soon as possible and took it for a test drive. The NEOX looks like the ubiquitous GRIGRI but feels very different to use.
The NEOX combines the security of an internal camming mechanism, which pinches the rope, with the easy rope feeding of a wheel. We asked on Instagram what you wanted to know and what you wanted us to test. The most commonly asked question about the NEOX is, "How does it compare to the GRIGRI?"
Join Eric and Charlie as they tested the NEOX and answered your questions.
- What is the NEOX?
- How does it work?
- How does it compare to the GRIGRI?
- What diameter ropes can be used?
- Can you belay top down for multi-pitches?
- Can you rope solo with this device?
- How much does it slip?

This video was filmed on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Coast Salish peoples - Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Tsleil-Waututh & Musqueam First Nations. Thank you for your continued stewardship of these lands.
