By Ranked #157 - Belay and Rappel Devices April 16, 2009

-It feeds the rope well.
-It built stout, a bit heavy for the size but its solid
-it belays a second from a upper anchor very well,
-its a bit grabby while lowering someone but it grabs a fall very well.
-The little hole for releasing a un-climbable second could be better
designed.
-The notched side is a bit much for rappeling it tend to grab the rop, I turn it around to smooth out the decent,
this is one of the most versitle and usefull devices out there I really glad I got one.
