I would give this beaner 5 stars on everything except the hook. Without a doubt, keylocks or hoods are the way to go. The hook makes it bit more difficult to unclip rope because the rope can get stuck on the hook. It's not a huge deal, but when you are stretching out on a marginal hold to clean a route and you have to fiddle with the rig a bit because it got stuck.... bummer
