Solid Quality, Definitely Won’t Slip

Typical high quality construction from Petzl. I do like this product b/c it’s relatively inexpensive and simple to use. One complaint/caution is that trying to descend a few feet gets a bit annoying as the teeth will dig in and it’s like taking a bone from a dog. Honestly, I end up using a prusik more frequently b/c it’s easier to ascend and descend as you are doing things like cleaning a route or trying that crux move over and over.

Great Addition To The Rack

It is quite small, lightweight, and can be very helpful when you less expect it. It gets the job done as well as a prusik hitch to ascend on the rope, and looks at least three times nicer than a piece of cord. Attach it to a Petzl Sm'D Twist-Lock carabiner, and boom; you won't ever drop it by mistake.

Super Small

The Tribloc is a really nice rope grab. I am using it for as a midline attachment point for a pick off system with an Aztec pulley rig. It allows me to have a hard connection to the rope so that I can shorten a section with mechanical advantage and pull climbers out of gaps in a high ropes ladder. It’s really well made and is a very firm rope grip. My only hesitation is that because the teeth are so aggressive I am a little concerned about repeated use on a rope causing the rope to weaken. Time will tell
