Best with thinner ropes

Works great with 9mm static rope. If you plan to use it with thicker stiffer ropes, such as 11mm PMI max-wear, it does lock up when the handle is released (as advertised) but takes more effort to derig and does not allow a person to take up slack. Freino Z carabiner is useful for added friction.
