Good for some but not for all

For single pitch sport climbing/top roping, this is a great device. I have had mine for 8 years and its starting to get warn out. I cant complain its has performed 100% every time. It deffantly worth the $ tag. I have used it for 9.5-10.5mm ropes and it has done just fine. with a 10.5 mm rope its not the smoothest feeding device out there, but its tood to bad either.

How ever for multi pitch or where you would have to hike in a ways, you would be better off with somthing a bit less bulky. Great device but is big and heavy. If your the kind of climber that lookig to shed OZs than ther are smaller and lighter belay devices out there.
