The slings are too long. I believe they are out of production as well. Other than that, decent hooks. Reached for others first, though.

Three hooks for the price of one. I'd rather been on a talon than anyother hook that size. The heads not being used provide extra stablity.

The tricam is the most useful piece of gear on the rack! Use it in active mode to protect pockets and horizontals, use in passive mode in place of larger nuts.

The new ones are one sided. I thought they'd be a pain in the arse, but they are awesome! Three cheers and buy Russ a beer. Lots of bar tacks. They even fold up great (much better than my yates aiders). the only drawback is that they don't have step stiffeners. for the most part, it didn't matter, but every once in a while, i wished they had 'em. Will be mod'ing with duct tape, should solve the problem.
