By Abigail Scott
I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Why We Like The DMM Pivot Belay Device
When it comes to belay devices, the DMM Pivot stands out for its exceptional features and construction. Crafted from tough yet lightweight aluminum, this device offers durability without adding unnecessary weight to our gear. Plus, it provides us with two friction options, allowing us to easily adjust our rappel speed based on our preferences and the conditions of our descent.
However, what truly sets the Pivot apart from other devices is its innovative hinged guide-mode loop. This unique feature grants us additional leverage and ensures smooth action when we need to lower our second climber off the belay ledge. With the Pivot, we can count on controlled and efficient lowering, enhancing our overall climbing experience.
