Just okay

By Evan Stevens Ranked #12 - Big Wall Climbing December 3, 2008

Well, I have put a set of these to the test all summer (5 days a week for 6 months), and the verdict is they are just okay. They have reduced range from traditional TCUs making them a little less easy to place. The triggers get very worked by any placement other than pure vertical. I have taken a few falls on each of them, and they don't seem to ever work quite the same after that, but I usually have to tweak them and lube them up to make them work right again.

I was a devout user of aliens forever and I too wanted to find a more bomber replacement. They are pretty good, but not quite there yet. BD C3's are way burlier and fit into the funky spots a bit easier.
