Comments about Black Diamond Super 8 Belay Device:
This is a time tested device and is the best at what is designed for. If you do any rappelling this is absolutely the device to have. It works easily with single 11+mm ropes and any size double rope. With a single rope the rappel can get a little speedy so I recommend gloves if you plan on that. If you are going to be doing double rope rappels with high diameter rope or a very long one with lots of rope weight you may want to get a rescue 8 as it has a bigger opening. Otherwise, this is the rappelling device to have.

I got this becouse the ATC was slow to rapel on. This is much much better for rapel.
