Used for toprope soloing
Works well for what its designed for. I use it as a backup for top rope soloing and it has served me well. It slides along the rope very well and does not require tending which is key.
top rope solo must have
I use this in conjunction with a grigri for top rope soloing and haven't looked at any other device. the top hole is great for clipping into a chest harness for smooth tracking.
