What a waste of space! I carried one for years as an emergency backup, and when the emergency came, it was a total dog! (I needed to climb >3,000 feet of rope to exit a cave) In the end, I patched my broken ascender with a bit of shoelace (totally sketchy) rather than use the darned tibloc. Its best use by far is to open beer bottles.

Do not blame the gear if you did not know what you were doing... Practice at home first.
