Gets the job done, but definitely not in the same class as the Petzl connect adjust. The stitching on the girth hitch end makes it akward to attach and the adjustment mechanism is much too heavy, bulky, requires too much force to adjust.
Love this thing. However, like the reviews below me, it is a pain to lengthen when not under load and the girth hitch is super awkward. I ended up cutting the rope it came with and replaced it with an 8 foot section of 8.8mm rope. After that, it works like a dream. Easily lengthens with one hand and you can tie in with a figure 8. It still locks perfectly and adjusts while free-hanging, under load. Just my two cents. I wish it came that way to begin with, but alas this is what we have.
Does not lengthen unless you lean back against it (while thumbing the cam), unlike the Petzl which can be lengthened by pulling the cord. Also I once experienced it not catching, until I rotated the cam.
Worked perfectly! Worth the price. I can tell this PAS will have lots of longevity
