CONT

Les «R.P.», conçus par le grimpeur australien Roland Pauligk, sont des coinceurs de forme astucieuse. Bien que leurs faces sont droites, leurs bords relativement étroits et allongés [...] les rendent particulièrement adaptés aux endroits peu profonds. [...] Le coinceur «R.P.» est en cuivre et il est soudé à l'argent au câble, sans raccord apparent.
