after watching several videos, I felt comfortable selecting this site. I was able to attach it and repel down a tree within minutes of it arriving at my doorstep no issues safe lite.
This product was easy to use and well built. I have never climbed using ropes before. This device made SRT (half rope technique) very easy to learn and use . I was up and down trees with ease . This is now part of my go to climbing gear for tree saddle hunting .
Pretty neat device that isn't too **** on rappel. Nice for belaying up the second. Great positioner as well. Like a trillion that you can belay with.
Best belay device for lead climbing in my humble opinion. It pays out slack very smoothly while no overriding of the belay mechanism is needed at all so it is very safe while paying out slack. I was a bit worried about the ability to take slack in but this turns out to run surprisingly swift and easy. The reason is that the rope only needs to pass a mostly straight path through the belay device. Finding the correct position with the belay hand again is possible blindly. I like the fact that the mechanism is very simple yet very effective. It is basically two rotating plates so there is not much which needs maintenance. Lowering needs a bit more sensitivity compared to other belay devices, though. However, even if the lever would be fully opened, there is still considerable amount of friction at both ends of the belay device; not sufficient to hold someone, though, of course! Overall, the "open position friction" is still less than in other half automatic belay devices.
I couldn't help but keep up with the 5 start impression with this belay. After comparing it to my other belay, which i returned(Gro Gri), I am excited to use this!I originally went with the GRI GRI and it was loud(i use for hunting) and any slack given it would not catch right away. I returned and went with this belay device. Catches me immediately if any slack given, much easier to use and much quieter! I feel very safe and secure with this device! Lighter, same price but more value. Decent color options. I will post a video or pictures at some point in use.
