Half Dome!!!
I used this, paired with a Black Diamond harness, to do the Half Dome cables. The set up worked perfectly and made me feel so safe. There would be absolutely no way I would have been able to get to the top without this system - purely because this gave me the confidence and security to keep going when I started second guessing myself. The lanyards were long enough to make it from pole to pole and the carabiners were extremely easy to attach and detach from the cables. Just as the other review said, people were asking me what this was on the cables!! I couldn't recommend this set up enough.
Half Dome cables
Took these up the Half Dome cables and they did the job. Pricey but worth the investment in order to enjoy the climb and have a sense of security.
Essential for Half Dome Cables
Contrary to the questions asked, this item is actually perfect for the Half Dome Cables. I used it four days ago and when paired with my black diamond rock climbing harness, I felt extremely safe. I was always connected to the cables, the wire gate carabiners were easy to open and close. It truly gave me the confidence to summit half dome in light of the scary news from a few weeks ago. When paired with grippy double nitrile coated gloves and proper hiking boots, you will enjoy being on the cables instead of worrying about falling. The cables are tough, but entirely worth it! Many people stopped to ask me what gear I had because my set up looked "so legit." I saw people with a rope around their waist and a tiny backpack carabiner - that only provided a false sense of security. If you want to clip into the cables, this exactly what you want (plus a rock climbing harness which REI also carries). Good luck and be safe out there!
Ouray via ferrata
Bought a set of these for me and my wife for a trip in Ouray. Did a guided trip in gold canyon then unguide on the Downstream public course in Ouray and they worked perfectly. Light weight and easy to use. Fun to adventure and climb through the canyon with confidence.
Fell
I bought this lanyard to use as a backup for ziplineing I fell of a platform using this lanyard and it saved my life. The shock absorber was deployed but it made the fall a bit nicer. 100% a good lanyard.
