Does What It's Supposed To!

I had never owned or used a hand ascender before this one, so I don't have anything to compare it to besides a microascender and using the carabiner as a handle. This makes ascending/jugging/jumaring much easier! You need a pretty small force to slide it up the rope, it has never slipped down on me, it always catches and bites well (on 10mm static rope) It's also pretty easy to disengage, the teeth don't get caught in the sheath very easily, especially if you give it a little push up while disengaging. Practice that motion off the rope a ton of times! You'll feel a lot more comfortable with it. Practice on the rope on the ground to. I've climbed about 200 ft total so far and I'm satisfied. Its a little heavy, but that's to be expected.

Easy To Use And Comfortable

I haven’t used this for a long times and haven’t used other ascenders, but from how it’s worked so far I’m happy. It grabs the rope great and doesn’t slip. It’s comfortable to use and easy to engage and disengage on the rope.

Simple And Works

Happy I picked one of these up. For too long I was just using a prusik to ascend fixed lines. This ascender is a great value and makes life in the vertical world much more pleasant.

Simply Great

After a couple months use, this ascender is great. Same function and feel as the more expensive brands. Will be grabbing the right hand soon

Best Bang For Your Buck

These ascenders are probably the best in the market for a reasonable price. They are very comfortable to hold and to jug with. Easy to use and they hold up to any and all challenges.
