Win an EDELRID OHM II

© Edelrid

The EDELRID Ohm is undoubtedly one of the most innovative climbing products of the last 10 years! Since it's release in 2017 it has been an essential tool for any climbing duo with a large weight difference. Now for 2024, there is a new version.

Whoever said "You can't improve on perfection" clearly hasn't seen the new Ohm or listened to the remastered version of OK Computer by Radiohead. 

We are giving one lucky climbing duo the chance to win the new Ohm II. All you have to do, to be in with a chance of winning, is have a read about the product below and answer the simple question. Easy!

OHM II (RRP: £115)

The second iteration of EDELRID's, undoubtedly, most famous product!

The new OHM is easier to use than ever thanks to a number of updates. The device itself is now fitted with a swivel joint, meaning that the clipping direction no longer matters when the device is clipped to the first bolt. The locking system has also been improved, the device now features a button as a pose to the catch seen on the previous generation. 

 

  • Far lower forces are exerted on the belayer
  • Lowering a heavier person in a controlled manner is far easier
  • OHM is attached at the first bolt in the safety chain
  • The device reduces the risk of a collision when falling on the first bolt
  • Rope handling when belaying a lead climber not affected (no additional friction when paying out rope)
  • "Makes the belayer 25 kg heavier"
  • Minimum belayer weight: 40 kg
  • For single ropes from 8.9–11.0 mm

Now that you know a bit about the OHM II, answer the simple question below to be in with a chance of winning!

Erm... I know that the accompanying text may have been written by someone whose first language is not English, but shouldn't someone in the Editorial team have spotted the strange incorrect expression in the sentence: "The locking system has also been improved, the device now features a button as a pose to the catch seen on the previous generation"?

I expect the culprit has heard the expression "as opposed to" but never seen it written. Very unprofessional to have made the mistake in the first place, exacerbated by slackness in not using a proof reader. I hope we can trust that their designers are better at engineering than their writers are at English.

That's probably blown our chances of winning one!
