Jerry is well known for his genious ideas!
His latest baby is the Alpine Weblock 4.0, a top quality locker. This weblock is incredible and probably the only one in the market that can adapt to any connector. Can you believe that it does also allow spanset ! Watch this video for more details : https://vimeo.com/101400015
This piece of metal is futuristic : every details are designed for slackline optimisation. The look is also awesome.
You need one for sure ! But it’s costly : 113 €
Here is what Jerry said :
“There is one feature that has always been the number one thing that I want to strive for in the design of the weblock: versatility. Throughout the various iterations of the AWL, we have been making the device more and more versatile. Now, with the 4.0, having the ability to anchor the device with an extremely wide variety of connectors and directly to spansets and static rope anchors, it’s more versatile than ever before.
On top of the extreme versatility of the device, it’s also fantastic for highline rigging. Having the ability to attach various backups to the anchor hole as well as stack 2 weblocks on top of each other for mainline / backup rigging makes your highline anchor so much cleaner and safer!
This design has been a massive undertaking for me with close to 40 iterations and countless hours of testing and concept development. Not to mention, the 6 years of development of the webbing anchor concept that went into the ground-work for this design. I’m very excited to share this design with the community. I believe it will make the anchoring and rigging process much more enjoyable as well as simplifying everything within your anchoring system, thus making it safer.”
