WILD COUNTRY HELMETS
Anyone can buy 7075 alloy; anyone can pick up a phone and buy some nuts or biners from a whole raft of producers in the Eastern Bloc or the Far East... and some people do, clogging up the shelves of outdoor stores with their ‘exotic’ new brands… So why choose one brand over another? Why stop to pore over the options in the local store? What makes it worth investing that little bit more in a Wild Country biner or harness? In fact what makes Wild Country so special? The difference is in the quality, the testing, and the rigorous adherence to the highest safety standards – our own, set well beyond the basic Euro norms – which made Wild Country one of the first climbing hardware manufacturers to gain the internationally recognised ISO 9001:2000 status. This is a quality standard, which ensures that from product design, to testing, to traceability, our systems are absolutely rigorous. This system of work is regularly inspected and tested by independent auditors. These inspections make sure what we claim is true, is! So when we say we proof load 100% of incoming biners we really do it. When we say we 100% inspect every harness and sling that passes through our hands, we really do it. Above all this, they make sure that the way we work places safety and quality at the core of everything we do. And this applies whether we make the product in our Peak District factory, or in one of our partners’ plants, either in the UK or abroad. Anyone can pick up a phone; not anyone can know that what they have ordered will be safe, or how to find out if it is. In the end that’s because not everyone has 30 years experience of designing, building and testing some of the most revolutionary and respected products in the outdoor world.

HELMETS
HELMETS
NEW HELMETS Modern climbing is all about movement, on rock, on ice or both, and across the seasons; adapting skills to surroundings and circumstances to make the most of changing conditions. And unequivocally a top quality helmet now needs to do the same. Enter the new Alpine Shield - the first true modular design that adapts as you do. So from E5 to 5.12, Scottish V to WI5, a simple and quick conversion scales the protection you need to meet the challenge you choose. Once again Wild Country enters the field with an innovative approach that moves the game on – challenging perceptions of what can be done and how it is done, to the benefit of climbers and climbing.
NEW ALPINE SHIELD HELMET
Alpine Shield Helmet
The awesome new Alpine Shield takes an innovative and stylish approach to creating the ultimate in adaptability and the perfect 'year round' helmet.
360 Helmet
Durable, stylish and super safe the 360 is an exceptional polycarbonate helmet built with style and the safety credentials to blow the opposition away.
This modular design adopts a ‘two-in-one’ approach, combining a lightweight, in-mould EPS/Polycarbonate helmet with an exclusive 'Alpine Shield' cover that can be quickly attached to give enhanced protection.
Created to act as a cross-season all rounder the 360 is a reliable and fully featured model that will be at home on first forays out to longer expeditions away. Built with safety in mind the 360’s testing pedigree is its strength. Optimal shaping, optimal material use and top impact resistance mean great test results, including a best in class side impact result. This is due to Wild Country’s decision to use more EPS than other helmets and to extend the EPS further down the sides and back of the lid. This makes impacts from a swinging fall safer, adding more plusses to an already secure design.
Worn uncovered, this helmet is perfect for all round cragging; supremely light and with an optimal fit via quick-click volume adjustment, soft EVA pads and a super secure, quick release chin strap. Worn covered, by adding the bonus Alpine Shield shell - providing 30% extra stone and icefall protection - it goes further than any other helmet of its type can go. Meaning this fully featured model becomes a true winter lid and one of the lightest choices around.
However, this strength is not a sacrifice to weight or fit and the 360 remains a lightweight choice. Internally, it adjusts via a glove friendly ‘dial-system’, cinches and releases simply and sits comfortably on adjustable, cushioned EVA pads.
Simple to switch around, easy to fit and wear, the Alpine Shield is the first helmet with this modular capability – so from gritstone games to winter workouts it converts from best in class to a class of its own.
A safety conscious go anywhere, do anything, all rounder with a strong sense of style, an excellent fit and a price tag that protects the wallet; the 360 redefines polycarbonate performance.
Features: Lightweight best in class EPS/Polycarb helmet, Exclusive free extra ‘Alpine Shield’ polycarbonate cover (up to 30% enhanced stonefall protection with cover), Simple ‘coin-slot’ alpine shield adjustment, Quik-Clik- glove friendly adjustable sizing, Adjustable EVA cushioned, head hugging inner pads, Nexus Acetal (better in low temp) quick release chin strap buckle, Smooth 16mm nylon chin strap, 4 Torch grips (acetal – better in low temps), Foil covered vents, Hood friendly sizing for winter wear, 3 Stylish colour choices, Emergency inner sticker, Free storage bag, One size.

LIGHTER IS RIGHTER... IT’S OFFICIAL!! NEW NITRO TECHWIRE
For 2009 the Wild Country boffins have been shaving the dies further to create an even more amazing range. So now there’s not only a new hyperlight 27 gram biner, the Astro, as well as a new 33gram full size biner the Nitro but to top it all we can reveal the worlds lightest screwgate biner the 40 gram Neon Screwgate.
The Helium is an exceptional biner... everyone tells us so! It feels great in the hand, clips superbly, and is still the world’s lightest true full size biner. In fact maybe the only criticism is that it’s incredible patented ‘no-hook’ nose makes its production an expensive business.
NEW ASTRO
So the Nitro is a solution to that, it’s a Helium with a skinny hooded nose that’s easier to produce and comes at a way better price! So you do the math... an easy clipping, full size, great handling biner at an awesome price - equals a bargain just waiting to be snapped up.
At less than an ounce per unit and with the stylish and strong ‘I beam’ technology, the new Astro provides an amazing platform for the 2009 Wild Country range to sit on. Like a miniature of the original, amazing Helium, the Astro’s technology combines plenty of strength with a definitive design that keeps up the downward momentum of weight loss. Small, but designed to sit perfectly in the hand, its size belies the ease of use. Built with our easy clip ‘Tech-wire’ wiregate and skinny, safe, hooded nose that makes it perfect for super slick clipping, it’s not hard to see why it handles so well.
QD comes on 10mm dyneema with Tadpole. Sets of Biners /Quickdraws available. Features: True full size superlight biner, Techwire gate, I Beam back, Skinny hooded nose, Hot forged, High gate open strength. Product Code: 13NITROA.
The Astro is a hyperlight, high performance biner that weighs less to give more and Wild Country’s lightest biner + QD. QDs come on 10mm dyneema with Tadpole. Sets of Biners / Quickdraws available. Features: Hyperlight, Techwire gate, I Beam back, Skinny hooded nose, Hot forged, High gate open strength.

NEW NEON KEYLOCK SCREWGATE
Achieved using a combination of the proven I beam technology and a little lateral thinking, the Neon Screwgate gives safety a boost allowing more screwgates to be carried without a weight penalty. Add to this a smooth Keylock nose and a usable gate clearance, it makes clipping and unclipping no toil – even with gloves. And as with all the Wild Country screws the Neon’s screwgate is strong enough to resist inward pressure as well adding an extra safety dimension.
Features: Ultralite biner, Hooded nose, I beam back, Hot forged, Tech-wire gate.
An amazing step forward and a true weight breakthrough, the Neon screw finally ditches the penalty of weight from a screwgate – and with its keylock nose it makes for safer climbing with no catch!! Features: Hyperlight, I Beam back, High strength screwgate, Hot forged, High gate open strength. Neon Keylock Screwgate

Case in point the awesome new Xenon Lite. Less weight in each biner and each quickdraw means more chance you’ll reach the top. Conversely you could carry more Xenon Lites for the same weight, meaning when the chips are down you may just have the extra clip you need. Either way you win. Features wise, this hot forged mini-marvel has a small neat nose, is hooded to protect the gate and shares the subtle shaping as its big brother. QD comes on 10mm dyneema with our new Tadpole. Sets of Biners / Quickdraws available
No ifs no buts, and no way to ignore this, the Neon screw is the worlds lightest screwgate and finally makes a screwgate close to being as light as many modern snaps.

NEW TOUCHDOWN
From a part time training game to a sport in its own right - bouldering has provided climbing with a gymnastic aesthetic that is inspiring, dynamic and multi-faceted. And almost like the inverse of leading, instead of needing to master a complicated looking roster of gear, the equipment needed is pretty basic. However, as is quickly realised when looking down from the top of a sketchy highball, it still needs to perform like the lifesaver it can be!! So for our first range of pads Wild Country have sourced the highest quality foams and combined them to make a stylish and complementary range of pads which will not only perform well from day one but will keep up the fight fall, after fall, after fall.
A super burly mid size pad, the Touchdown sets the bar high in terms of performance, features and longevity.
BMC Bonus - As a bonus you can help keep our climbing areas in better shape as 2% of all the turnover on all our bouldering gear sold goes to the British Mountaineering Council to help the new Crag Care Fund keep our areas open, clean and accessible.
Well thought out, the Touchdown is fully aimed towards creating a top spec pad that keeps working fall after fall, day after day. For example, our foams are placed in a 20/60/10 mix to achieve two aims: easily absorbing impacts from above while protecting against ankle twisting rock intrusion from below and stemming damage to the open cell centre foam. Add to this a beefy DWR treated Cordura upper, solid metal buckles and no plastic and it’s easy to see this is designed to be a mean mother. Velcro joining strips and a removable harness complete the picture. Stylishly finished with our bold new screens the Touchdown is a fully featured future classic. Features: 20/60/10 Foam mix, Pad joining system, 500 Denier DWR (durable water resistant) Cordura top, 1600 denier waterproofed bottom, Metal buckles throughout, Removable harness.
NEW SUPER SPOT A multi-faceted mini marvel the Super Spot provides a perfect petit pad to use either on its own when space (or price) is at a premium, or doubled up with a bigger brother.
Size – 100cm x 90cm x 9cm Weight 4.5kg. Product Code: 19PADTDOWN.
NEW BIG AIR
Featuring Wild Country’s firm and long lasting combination of softer (open cell) and harder (closed cell) foams it has an impact absorption level that’s perfect for a wide range of problems and is small and neat to carry.
The name says it all... our biggest pad for the biggest impacts! Top quality foams combine with bombproof materials and superior construction to make a ‘Taco’ style folding pad.
The bonus with the Super Spot is that it also doubles up as a seat making it ideal for a chill out between problems or when needing to re-fuel. Or take it to the crag as a belay seat. Features: 20/70 Foam mix, Easily forms seat, Metal buckles throughout. Size – 75cm x 47cm x 9cm Weight 3kg. Product Code: 19PADSSPOT.
Touchdown Pad
Super Spot – in chair mode
The advantage of folding means no centre seam to worry about in flight and with the Big Air it means great ground coverage too. The foam is in a 20/70 mix allowing the Big Air to fold well and still give a firm and re-assuring feel on impact. Cleverly designed, it also works ‘inside out’ meaning that the muddy side of the pad isn’t on the back while walking out and additionally the DWR treated materials resist water uptake keeping the pad (and feet) dryer longer. As a bonus it also has a detachable ‘foot-pad’, great for providing a separate starting point for problems – and enabling the pad to be left in the impact zone. Features: 20/70 Foam mix, Wild Country jointing system, Bonus foot pad, 500 Denier waterproofed Cordura, 1600 denier waterproof bottom, DWR Durable water resistant treated, Metal buckles throughout. Removable harness.

NEW BOULDER SET
HARNESSES
NEW BOULDER BRUSH
It’s bargain time... if you’re just hitting the long road to bouldering enlightenment then we think you’ll appreciate this perfectly formed set of gear which includes:
SYNCRO RANGE The Syncro is the stalwart of the Wild Country range and with an Ultralite version available too these double buckled comfort monsters offer something that’s unavailable elsewhere – the perfect centering of the harness whatever the clothing worn or the load carried.
A thin, tough and neat double ended brush. Designed to scrub even the smallest of edges to provide a clean, true, smeg free pull when you really need it on that crucial ‘last go’.
Boulder Bag – our new large flat bottomed chalk sac. Boulder Brush – A thin neat double ended nylon brush. Pure Chalk 350gram Bag – our big bulging re-sealable bag. Tape – a bonus item of thin, sticky, finger protecting stuff.
With Wild Country’s Ziplock buckles’ slick and simple functionality this means that increased comfort and easy access to your gear is a guarantee - making these the highest pedigree all rounder harnesses around.
Brush comes with a free and unique harness clip for carrying on routes too.
SYNCRO ULTRALITE
Weight 15grams. Product Code: 19BLDRBRUSH.
Going down a storm, this super-tweaked version has proven to deliver more performance in the most extreme conditions.
Boulder Brush with bonus clip
A lightweight, super-ergo belt design puts padding exactly where needed and is covered by a high strength ripstop fabric outer for a sheer strong finish. Inside a DWR (durable water resistant) treated, stretch fabric inner, helps keep water out – essential in winter. The waistbelt keeps our classic, centered, double buckle fit while shedding weight by utilising new alloy ziplock buckles and 20mm webbing. Five well positioned gear loops and two dedicated ice-screw holders give ample carrying capacity.
Product Code: 29CBCHKBLDRSET.
WILD COUNTRY PURE CHALK
NEW PURE CHALK BALL – 60GRAMS
There’s more to chalk than meets the eye: and with the blending, baking, crushing and forming involved sometimes it can seem more like distilling whisky than making a simple white powder. But remembering that the best whisky is usually the purest we figured that Wild Country Chalk would be better that way too... Pure... Hence the name.
Sized to slip unobtrusively into your powder pouch our chalk ball is a super tough one, and is filled with 60 grams of our exclusive Pure Chalk formula. The stretched material wrapper lets out enough chalk each time to coat the fingers well, but without losing too much powder, and should last a good long time. And as a bonus it’s the perfect size for throwing at mickey taking mates –after you’ve crashed and burned on another send - without causing them too much damage!!!
So with no additives, drying agents or other nasties to ruin your skin or the rock Pure Chalk will keep your hands clean and dry and thus keeping your head clearer in even the hottest spots... BMC Bonus – As a bonus you can help keep our climbing areas in better shape as 2% of all the turnover on all chalk sold goes to the British Mountaineering Council to help the Crag Care Fund keep our areas open, clean and accessible.
NEW PURE CHALK 350GRAM BAG
The original chalk delivery system is now available with 58grams of Wild Country Pure Chalk. Buying a block and breaking it lets you decide how you use it... big chunks, little chunks or smooth balls.
Blended, baked, formed, then crushed to our specifications this is the best value bag on the market with it’s mega sized 350grams meaning it should last through a whole bunch of tries on even the most hardcore days out.
Available as single block or an 8 block box. Product Code: Box 29CBCHKBOX.

ELITE RANGE
ELITE ADJUSTABLE WOMEN’S
With sales in 2008 that certainly belie that fact that everyone’s just bouldering, the Elite Range has proved that combining cutting edge design with comfort was a great way to go. And with the Elite range these twin ambitions are married to create truly stunning, original harnesses that prove that style fit and function can be mixed to make even the most jaded take notice.
A women’s harness should never be simply a re-coloured men’s model. So ours is properly re-shaped and re-sized to make sure that the brilliant ‘Comfortmesh’ foam makes a supportive and figure hugging belt specifically for women. Add in a 25kn belay loop, 10kn accessory points and many more safety features and this becomes a great option for action women across all disciplines: sport climbing, trad climbing or winter.
ELITE ULTRALITE Elite Ultralite – Created to become our ‘piece de resistance’ for the avid sports climber or traditionalist who really wants to go lightweight it seems that the Elite Ultralite really hit the spot.
Features: Ziplock waist buckle + Ziplock leg loop buckles, Exclusive ‘Comfort Mesh’ foam belt, ‘Batwing Belt’ shaping, Five gear loops, 25kN Belay loop, Offset 15kN Haul Loop + ‘Hideaway’ pocket, Single point drop seat, Mesh carry bag.
Taking a lead from the previous Elite models but slimmed and trimmed of any excess it becomes the choice for your hardest routes and redpoints. With a more radical shaping, this harness was designed for movement and sports a ‘super-ergo’ belt that’s been carved to allow an unprecedented flex and feel. Add to this 4 gear loops, a radical 10mm dyneema belay loop, as well as a stylish finish that really stands out and its easy to see why it became the latest ‘big thing’. Features: ‘Super-Ergo’ belt, 10mm Dyneema Belay loop, 20mm Waistbelt webbing, 4 gear loops, 25kn belay loop, Wear indicator, Elasticated leg loops, Single clip off point. PRODUCT

ZEROS
TECHNICAL FRIENDS 5 & 6
A miniature miracle of modern engineering, and still getting great reviews as well as gasps of astonishment, the range and usefulness of Zeros has to be seen and experienced to be believed.
These mega-cams have been taken to heart by everyone who has used them. They are one of the lightest at their size and their huge head width to expansion ratio makes them the most stable and balanced big cams available – meaning when you move past them, they don’t move.
From the diminutive Zero 1 – still the smallest cam ever made – upwards, the many unique features of Zeros combine with their unrivalled flexibility to make sure they are a keystone of Wild Countrys range. The longer stem of sizes 3 – 6 makes them easier to place and remove than many rival cams and the large trigger ensures even gloved use while aiding is no problem.
Features: Original 13.75 camming angle, Anodised Colour Coding, Light Single NiCroMo Axle, Camstops, Ballistic Nylon Sheath, 12mm Dyneema sling.
Features: Direct Loading Axle, Camstops, Guided Triggers, Flexistem, Original 13.75 Cam angle, Light 10mm Dyn Extendable Sling. PRODUCT

ROCKS
ROCKCENTRICS
The fully featured Rocks range should be seen as the benchmark units for the modern climber. Light, solid, durable and refined for all seasons and all circumstances they have the biggest range of any units available and an enviable list of features. So, from colour co-ordination to side tapers, to top quality materials and 3 Sigma testing, the worlds original curved nuts, Rocks, easily keep their place in the pantheon of ‘must-have’ gear. Sets available 1-8, 9-14.
A eureka moment and the Rockcentric was born. Combining the best ideas behind the clunky old hexentric with modern shaping and materials might not seem like genius but ask the hordes of climbers who’ve been snapping them up since day one and they’d probably disagree. Brilliantly light, with a range of placement options that make them so easy to use and a flexible dyneema sling that helps keep ‘em firmly wedged once placed.
Features: Tapered sides, Anodised Colour Coding, Lighter Thinner Sidewalls, Fourteen Sizes.
Features: 14kn Dyneema sling, 4 Placement options, Side tapers, Lightweight, Great for winter.

MINI ROCKS
PRODUCT
Small and really useful in extremis, the Mini Rocks combine a neat, precise shape with a positive fit. Flat sided due to their size, they are engineered to make the most out of very little metal. Neat touches include a ‘sunken-wire’ head which provides protection and strength where the wire’s at its weakest and fine rumbling which gives a super smooth finish. Four sizes all below a Rock 1 wide give a range of placement options. PRODUCT

VC PRO 2
SRC – SINGLE ROPE CONTROLLER
With an easy, organic shape and intuitive feel the VC Pro 2 has been a success since its launch and is recognised as one of the leaders on thin ropes. And it has two great attributes to make it so: Firstly it has a smooth finish for fatter cords with a flattened out bottom, which keeps the biner a bit further away and decreases grab. Secondly to give even more bite on ever-decreasing diameter skinny ropes, the V slots are deep, accepting even the thinnest ropes to give a firmer grip.
The Single Rope Controller is Wild Country’s super safe belay device which works like an ‘auto-lock’ but with a very important difference – it has a much more dynamic action leading to a lower impact force and a much softer fall.
A great device, for indoor or out, that should stay at the top of the heap for a while yet. Set with Synergy screwgate available.
Refined and easy to use and with stainless steel pins for long life in group or centre situations.

The key here is that this puts less strain on the device, the belayer and, most of all, the falling climber. Simple to use and very fast paying out in a redpoint situation it’s also a great device for safe starting out – top roping and for first leads.

EXPRESS SLINGS ‘TADPOLE’ 10mm & 12mm
16mm NYLON
For sale singly and also supplied with all our quickdraws the 10mm and 12mm Dyneema Express slings are sewn through and sport a bonus feature the ‘Tadpole’. The ‘Tadpole’ is a neat rubber ring sewn into the sling at the bottom, or rope-clipping end, that grips the biner, helping to keep it orientated correctly at all times. Conversely on these ‘dogbone’ slings the top end of the ‘draw remains loose so the biner there can be rotated for safety.
Slim light and easy to carry the 16mm Nylon slings are a great choice for those who want confidence but without as much weight as before. 16mm has a solidity and long term reliability second to none, but its size is easier to use yet still gives a great visual re-assurance of their strength.
10mm DYNEEMA The amazingly light and brilliantly flexible 10mm Dyneema slings are now our best selling width – and provide the ‘cutting edge’ to any rack where weight is at premium. Weighing in at only 16gms a metre but still with 22kn 3 Sigma rated breaking strain it’s obvious we’re looking at the lightweight champion. PRODUCT

PRO-KEY A radical update makes this tool more adaptable and easier to use. A wire gate means a direct clip to the harness, while a folded top gives a bigger surface area to allow a firmer (less painful) push with the palm and large holes keep the weight down. And finally, the tip of the Pro-Key is precision ground to give it the most accurate nose for removal even in tiny slots. The Pro Key can also be bought with an optional, removable, extendable, leash and clip which means you’re safe from dropping it in tight spots. Colour: Silver.

ROPE CONTROL
The Infinity Ropes concept came from a challenge set by our mega-experienced climbing team to create a series of ropes which were technically advanced but that were also up to the rigours of ‘top-end’ climbing. This exacting brief was turned in to a design reality by Wild Country MD Martin Atkinson, and drawing on 8 years spent at one of Europe’s biggest rope manufacturers he has created this superb new line. Infinity Ropes feature a number of exciting new developments to make sure that whichever rope you choose and whatever it is put through, you will be using the most tailored and responsive designs on the market today.
SPRINT 9.2mm Shaving weight and saving effort; these two aims are inextricably bound together and with our amazing new sub 60gram per metre rope we’ve done the first to allow you to achieve the second. Thus the new generation of Infinity Ropes starts here, with the Sprint 9.2’s superb combination of weight, handling, feel and flexibility allowing an even more confident approach on your hardest pitches. An already refined outer has been trimmed down further for this cord, making it smooth to pay out and great to clip with. These lighter sheath yarns give a finer feel yet still retaining high degree of durability in this 9.2mm rope. At the same time the re-worked ‘balanced core’ has a lower impact force meaning that if you do take that tumble it won’t feel as bad. Always critical to extreme ascents, the weight of a rope on a long pitch can tip the balance between success and failure – so why not nudge the scales your way and try the slickest Infinity yet.

INFINITY ROPES – UK Only
SPRINT 8.4mm & SPRINT 10mm
ENDURO 10.5mm NON-DRY
These cutting edge ropes are characterised by an improved ‘feel’ and a finer relationship between strength, weight and durability. Lower denier yarns braided on machines with higher carrier count result in a rope that is smoother to handle, more flexible in use, and consequently transmits a lower impact force making a more comfortable fall. Tailored for the expert, and much lighter per metre than the Enduro series their durability holds up well to give ultimate confidence in extreme situations. Sprint ropes are all dry coated.
After the success of our dry treated Super-Enduro we realised there were still a lot of people who wanted this diameter of rope but didn’t necessarily need the water repellency. The new Enduro 10.5 still provides a high-spec rope but for those not seeking such extremes in their climbing it provides better value. Designed to be very hardwearing the Enduro fits the bill for ‘day-cragging’ and indoor use perfectly and with an new 30m length for smaller venues offers extra choice and value. Features: BCC, DCC.

ENDURO / SUPER-ENDURO 9.0mm & 10.5mm The Enduro range is specifically constructed to be the hardest wearing rope in its class. This is achieved by using heavier denier yarns and a higher than normal ratio of sheath to core yarns, but importantly without sacrificing handling quality. Their price and performance combined with this extra longevity makes them excellent value for money and a super-reliable product. Super-Enduro ropes are dry treated.
FEATURES USP – UNIQUE SHEATH PLAIT This is the concept which gave Enduro ropes their name! By using a higher than normal percentage of sheath yarns we have created one of the most durable and damage resistant ropes ever built. Combining this with a yarn twist aligned along the axis of the rope for handling we feel that this feature makes for a solid reliable ‘best in class’ rope.

BCC – BALANCED CORE CONCEPT Choosing the right core construction makes a huge amount of difference to rope behaviour. Our yarns are twisted and heat treated in house and then selected to provide a core strand construction specific to each rope diameter. Perfecting this ‘balance’ for all our styles has been testing, but the effect is obvious as we deliver a solid, perfectly round rope which feels and handle great from day one.
www.redchili.de
DCC – DURA-CORE CONSTRUCTION A “marine finish” lubricant is applied to the core which changes the way it interacts with the sheath, increasing the dynamic properties of the finished rope as well as significantly aiding longevity. SD – SUPER DRY TREATMENT A wet rope may hold less than 50% of the falls held when dry. Complete immersion of the rope in the hydrophilic, silicone based solution and subsequent heat setting ensures the best possible protection against water absorption. Super dry treatment is an important contributor to rope safety and performance, therefore all Infinity Ropes are offered with the choice of a Super Dry treatment.

NEW MATADOR VCR
MESCALITO
No More Bull! The Matador is super sharp. And with our hottest level of performance and a wicked style it’s the new weapon on the bouldering frontline.
A versatile, performance orientated shoe the Mescalito is designed to perform brilliantly across the widest spectrum of styles. A semi-asymmetric profile supports the toe and combines perfectly with a sculpted, speed –laced upper, to provide a wrap-around feel that fits more feet more easily. Laterally firm but with a responsive flex this shoe will edge with the best but is equally at home smearing on granite or grit.
Tweaked to deliver ultimate awareness, a slimmer last and toe down design combine to push power through the front of the shoe – giving maximum grip, feel and feedback on the smallest smears and edges. Externally, a new, synthetic upper resists stretch better, and the triple VCR straps keep a firm grip on the foot to contain and control this potent package. A snug, precise spilt-heel makes for better hooking and completes the package.
Re-worked for 2009 the Mescalito has been sharpened at the toe to give more pocket power while the upper has been reinforced to give a real precision alternative across a range of disciplines. • Easy and fast fitting speed laced upper.
Styled for the wild and signalling a new avenue for Chili’s top end range this is a shoe for the hardcore to try more, fight harder and win battles in this unstoppable grade war we’re all committed to!
• Low profile semi-asymmetric toe.
• Toe down design for power.
• Twin rear pull on tabs.
• New Synthetic upper for lower stretch.
• Super sticky 4.2mm RX1 Red Chili rubber.
• New ‘ultra-cup’ heel. • Graduated midsole - firm but responsive.
• Triple VCR straps for control. • Super sharp toe profile.

IMPACT ZONE HEEL
• Twin pull on tabs. • Split Heel for better hooking. Product Codes: 50RCMTDVCR03 – 50RCMTDVCR12.
Red Chili’s exclusive and innovative Impact Zone is a subtle, bonus layer of impact absorbing foam hidden in the heel of the shoe which gives a more cushioned landing when needed. So for bouldering indoors & out or just walking off the crag it’s proved to be a mighty popular way of having a more comfortable day out without sacrificing performance.
CORONA VCR
SPIRIT IMPACT ZONE VCR
The Corona VCR offers another choice of VCR for sports, routing or bouldering but using a different last, midsole and upper from the new Diavolo it gives a well tested & valid alternative.
A success from day one the Impact Zone VCR has carved a niche as a thoroughbred technical shoe. The tight, focused, toe and Impact Zone comfort of the heel combine to create a shoe built for bouldering and sport but with enough power and support for longer routes. This multi-featured shoe has been a bestselling model and offers an all-round performance, fit and function that’s hard to match anywhere.
All the performance features are here: sharp low-profile toe, snug heel, bonus rubber for super-tech hooking, and a supportive mid-sole that gives a bit more oomph to the shoe when it’s needed. VCR straps give easy on and offs for redpoints, belays and bouldering and the stylish black and white outer has been a popular choice…
Stylish, easy to get on and off and technical – without being too intense to wear – the VCR is a winner.
A top performer, the Corona VCR gives a proven precision performance that really works.

SPIRIT
Stylish, sporty and technical and getting great reviews, Red Chili first women’s specific shoe looks and feels the business. With a neat, light, trimmed down version of the best-selling Spirit last as its base and adapted to fit the female foot shape better - this looks a real winner. On top our triple velcro upper is great for quick on & offs and adjusts well for a precision fit - even on slim feet while at the heel is a snug cup that should hook great.
A certified classic, the Spirit is a neat, light shoe that puts fit at the top of the agenda, climbing beautifully across a wide spectrum of asks: indoor, outdoor, boulder, trad and sport. The fastest selling shoe Red Chili ever made and ever present since its inception 5 years ago it has precise, glove like fit, low profile toe, defined arch and snug heel. And with long ‘to the toe’ lacing the Spirit just wraps the foot superbly giving a feel and feedback that’s hard to beat.
A precision entry into the women’s market thats sharp enough for the hardcore if worn tight but relaxed enough to take first steps in if fitted flat.
Subtle, stylish and such a great fit, the Spirit continues to inspire good climbing as it has done from day one.

SAUSALITO
Boosted for the multi-pitch and mountain environment, this is a shoe which delivers functionality and fit in spades making it a stronger and safer bet for big days out.
The Sausalito is a great shoe and an excellent shoe for climbers of all levels – giving a stiff edge for those pushing it and a solid platform for beginners.

Also, the two piece heel works better and wraps the heel for a high performance fit.
A classic ‘dot’ sole now covers the heel gives to more bite for descents and longer days and creates even more comfort. Added to this is a sharper, tighter upper with a re-profiled toe and extra padding around the heel, completing a slick package.

SCREWGATE KARABINERS – SUPER 10 / 12mm MIDI / 12mm HMS
CLASSIC – THREADBACK / ZIPLOCK
Re-worked in 2006 the Super 10 Screw offers a bigger unit for the same price making it a great buy. The bestselling Midi Screw is made from 12mm bar and gives a superb value option at an in between size. Perfect as a belay biner alongside the Clog Flyer or other devices. Finally there’s the classic Clog 12mm HMS, a round bar biner perfect for all mountain situations.’
Like the Centre the Classic is designed as a budget introductory harness with 44mm webbing throughout and large threadback buckles. An ‘over-the-top’ clip in point means this is a great group or centre product for quick changeovers using a screwgate while its ‘nappy’ style means it is adaptable as a winter walking/mountaineering product. There are now two versions of this popular model being offered. The original with ‘threadback’ buckles and a new model with Clog’s new ‘ziplock’ style buckles which are always threaded and are simply pulled to tighten. Both models also come with a single gear loop.

These procedures are an integral part of our Quality Assurance System. From the data obtained from destruction testing, the average (or mean) and sample standard deviation (which is a measure of variance based upon the results obtained) is calculated. 3õ is three times the sample standard deviation. When 3õ is deducted from the mean result obtained, we can predict the spread of results which would be obtained if we were to destroy the entire batch (which is why we sample only!). We monitor this data closely from batch to batch to ensure that the rated strength (as marked on the product) is always less than the mean minus three times the sample standard deviation. This ensures that the minimum breaking strength for all products is consistently higher than the rated strength as marked on the product.
