Is there any difference in swinging momentum between this and the Naja? I would like to get one (not one pair!) of each the Naja and Anaconda. I'm not really looking to do WI but more mixed routes. Friends think I should only get a pair Najas. What would you do?

Those two are almost the exact same tool except for the grip and hand rest on the Anaconda. I would get the Anaconda for any mixed because of the grip and hand rest. I don't know if i would use these for strictly mixed climbing either...they don't have a very aggressive geometry for easy pick placement in cracks and on crimps. I would suggest Coyote, Nomic, Viper, reactor, or cobra...your call though. Good luck!
