Cool Video. The wear on the „tooth“ ist the same reason why I don’t like the revo as well. It’s just hard to trust your gear when you can’t inspect the mechanism inside.

Best Comment! @MJ720 You deserve to win the Neox.
@@MJ720 #Winner!!!
Love how bomb proof the old gri gri is still going after all those years
If you see this as a reupload it's because I have decided to make the giveaway free to enter! I'd like to do more giveaways, so thanks for supporting the channel and i'll keep them coming! You can support by visiting my merch store. 🤙
Greaaaat so I bought the trad dad shirt I’ve been wanting to order for nuthin 😂
@@gnirts7870 might make you luckier 🤣
Great to see
Legally (in the USA) you have to make giveaways free to enter in order to avoid having an illegal lottery. Even some charity organizations have gotten in big trouble for that.
@@strikermartin6963 good to know!
Liked your point about being able to just look at your gear and tell if its up to scratch or not. Never would have considered that before when getting new gear 👍👍
Great video, love what you do in this channel, very useful and interesting information!
Now, you see Yann, THAT is how you remove that annoying little spring for your rope solo endevours - just another feat of this wonderful new device 😂 Kindest regards and just keep on sending, boys 😊
It’s interesting how different the Grigori and the Brix are working just by this wheel. Thanks for showing and explaining! I really like your channel and your effort trying to make this sport more safe by people understanding their equipment!
Super cool, I always love watching how things work on the inside. Im fairly new to climbing and love seeing how this that keep me alive work!
Great video, it's really interesting that petzl decided to make giving slack easier at the cost of what is probably a significantly shorter lifespan and no way to know if your approaching the end of the device's lifespan.
Keep up the great videos
Interesting video. Thanks for sharing. I certainly agree that being able to visually inspect the wear of my kit is important.
Love the dedication to allowing your curiosity to reign supreme. Would be very interesting to know Perzl's estimated lifespan on the Neox. Would be keen on getting one though, although I'm a sucker for new shiny kit - I suppose I could tell my wife I won it! Haha
Great video, thanks for showing us the insides!
Thanks for making this video, really interesting to see how a Neox works
The simplicity of the grigri still amazes me. Such a beautiful piece of gear!
Thanks for the Neox breakdown. I finally got to use one this past week and it’s so smooth! Smoother than an ATC even.
Thank you for furthering our understanding in the climbing community. I always wondered what mechanism exactly makes the click noises on the neox.
Thanks for sharing. Many of us have just enough experience and knowledge to be dangerous! Understanding = safety. Thanks for the enlightenment.
Very cool content! I got a helmet because of your vids. I also talked my buddy into using his too!
Thanks for sacrificing a perfectly good piece of gear so that we can all understand how it works! I think it will be perfect for sport/gym climbing. The GriGri plus feeds more smoothly than the older GriGris but it seems like to new Neox takes it to the next level! Thanks for a great video!
Your OG grigri is looking gnarly, amazing that it still works! I'd call it the antiquox.
pretty cool to see the inside of it! I initially thought it was inspired of the centrifugal acceleration like for a seatbelt or for the Silent Partner. Cool to understand the actual mechanic.
Hi, student here on a budget. My smart is working perfectly fine but I’m jealous of my mates with a grigri, just the ease of letting rope in lead belaying. Enjoyed the vid
Beal Birdie user here. New partners always question my belay device. I wonder if they would have more confidence if I used a Neox. Guess I'm entering the giveaway!
This type of engineering is like magic to me, thanks for lifting the veil
Thanks for the very informative video :)
really cool to see the inside, makes it make a lot more sense seeing how it works.
"Give it to me," he said, like a toddler demanding a cookie while riding a unicycle through a hallway full of Lego pieces.
Best Climbing stuff youtube channel 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Good point on making sure your gear is inspect-able!
Very informative as always - thanks for the great content!
I’m happy to accept a new neox but that old one still looks BOMBERRRRR
Huh... thought it would be much more complicated, cool vid👍
Bad ass breakdown,thank you...
Been super curious about this and been looking forward to try it!
Who needs more climbing gear?
Awesome break down of unit
Great video - but I will be honest…I never comment on video so I am here for the neoz 😅
The Neox honestly looks like such a nice device and a really smart idea from petzl. Honestly the physics on it is interesting
I'm really comfortable with the GriGri so I've been on the fence with the Neox. You make a good point that it is only good for sport climbing.
Been subbed for years, love this channel, love the videos. Would love a neox!
the fomo is real! as ever, nice vid!
haven't seen one in real life yet, but thanks to you already familiar with the inner values 😅
Love your channel!
Thanks very much, been super curious about the Neox
Yo, please put out some more climbing fails, I love to watch these
Thanks for sacrificing the neon. That is one used and abused grigri.
Thanks for destroying an expensive piece of equipment to I didn't have to. Also, I really love the t-shirt I bought from your website!
Thanks for the vid! Was curious what the click sound was
Looks like a real upgrade. Only used my old grigri for Ropesolo and hated it for belaying.
Great video as always
I juts love this channel
Great explanation
Cool content!
Nice extraction!
Commenting to throw my hat in the ring. I want to see a video on the Edelrid Pinch.
Thanks for the video and raffling a Neox!
very interesting device. Can see its benefit but not sure how much value over a grigri. Cool to to see the inside bits
Fellow trad dad here. This is exactly the kind of beta we need! Thank you for your service 🫡
I do wonder if the idea for this came from sailing gear. That’s what it reminds me of. A main sheet block crossed with a grigri.
Shoulda had you sign my trad dad shirt when I bumped into you and Yann in the gunks last year!
Hey Josh. Love your stuff. GIMME THAT NEOX!
Great upload 👍
Hey, seems like your new neox doesn' t work properly, i would reccommend to return it, warranty should cover those accidental damages.
(Thanx for the insider info tho, very interesting!)
Very interesting to see how the internals of this thing works. It's sad though that they didn't add some way easily checking the internals for wear
Love your videos !
Your old grigri probably runs as smooth as the neox without the sound! Just need wear😂
Thanks for looking under the hood!
I love the neox. I do prefer traditional belay technique (not holding it the entire time) and I've always used the atc guide for bringing up a 2nd so it's perfect for me.
Brand new and getting into sport climbing after really enjoying bouldering and top rope and would be so amped to win this!
Great video🎉
Love your videos
Hey it's me, your best subscriber.
Would love one! Prefer the smoothness of an atc but my gym only allows grigri.. maybe I can trick them
Ran over my gri gri last week… maybe for the better? The neox would be a sweet replacement.. appreciate the insight!
I had the exact same idea with just the small barrel bearing in regulat grigri. Sounds like much simpler solution.
Nice! Now you have spare parts to fix them.
This a great post. Would this make a good Christmas gift???? Be safe
Wish you'd open me up to see what's inside, keep it real my short king xx
Thanks for the insight, I’ve been wondering too.
I didn't pick up from any of your other videos that I've seen in the past that you were professionally into rope access. That's pretty cool! I wonder if you have videos on this topic.
Looking at getting one but I really like the excuse of blaming my belayer for short roping me if I can't get the climb
Finally someone opened the dam thing!
It was interesting to see what's inside it, my friend's Neox was basically grigri (Spinner stopped working almost entirely), after belaying for a few weeks on Very sendy crags. I hit it with some good blasts of high pressured air, and some WD40 to get it to work almost as new.
Great Videos!
Nice break test machine ;)
I’ve been using the mega jul for lead climb belaying but the new one has sharper edges and seems to put pig tail curls in my rope. I’ve been looking at this for a while and would love a chance to try it IRL! Thanks gorgeous the great video!
Looking forward to try the Neox. But with the price tag, I don't think it will replace my still rather new GriGri Plus though...
fascinating teardown!
Great Video!
Yay! Another video!
I say the neox ist solving problems that arent there really. Classic Case of overbuilding to have a product to sell.
...I'd take it anyway, maybe it can convince me otherwise :P Till then i'll be happily catching folks with my trusty megajul
i will never forget the jingle clackle of the grigri
Great to see inside. Please choose me for the Neox!
Every neox in the room when this guys comes in : (chuckles) I'm in danger
Tested the neox with a break knot and not holding on to the break side of the rope, it does slip quite a bit, so not a device for beginners. But if you know how to belay, it is awesome!
The clackety clack is when taking- in, which works on the back sde of that dog where it's ramped.
It will definitely be interesting to see how they do with years of use--do they have a manufacturer-recommended lifespan?
The neox: does a third of what a grigri does for three times the price.
But I still want it lol
I stumbled upon this video without even searching for it. I guess you could say it was a Neox-cident!
Very interesting, wouldn't the cam still cam if the notches are worn down if you hold the brake strand?
