Great. Use it commerically and recreationally. Have to rig it properly for traverses so it won't pop off the line

Easy on, Easy off. Workes very good and clamps nicely. I've had no problems with it at all.

I own a pair, L/R, and have been very happy with how they work. They work best on 9.8-10.5mm ropes, but I've used them on 5mm in Nepal and was very happy with their use. As does everyone, the aggressive teeth make me a little leery, but they haven't desheathed a rope on me yet.

Best handled ascender out there.
You can put it on/ take it off with one hand, the safety catch prevents it from coming off the rope unless you realease it (which is done with 1 thumb.) It fits my big hands with leather gloves just fine.
This is a much better design than CMI, Jumar, ect.
Very comfy and easy to use, no complaints.
I've even used the handle as a make-shift nut tool for a stuck Tri-Cam. Yahoo!!!
