Out of all the hand held ascenders I have used- this is the best. The ease of opening, closing and the contour of the grip are well thought out and as an added plus its fairly lightweight in the pack for longer days.

I've used a number of these and finally bought my own. These units seem like the gold standard of all of the ascenders on the market - comfy in hand, works well every time and takes a beating. I have no complaints about these. I haven't jugged any long pitches with these yet, but it seems like that will be comfy.
