ATTENTION! the gear loops are rated 5kg not 5Kn!
big difference!

I've been using this harness for 5 years now (retiring it this year).
It's great for sport& indoor.
Very comfy harness for hanging btw!

I use to rappel and belay tr, I got mad at ropes not fitting in round 8's, so I bought this one, now I can laugh evil (mouhahahahahahaha) when I see people having problems to fit their rope.

Because it's so big, you can work easyer on fat ropes to belay tr.

I've never used it, but it's used alot for people who climb for the first time, like parties.
It's better than and 8 because it locks of, and the rope can't tip to the top in a locking knot.

it's handy for lasy people, but lot's of people think because it auto blocks they can fool around and not really be attentive while belaying.
also it's to often given to unexperienced people because it's told to be safer, but they don't think about when they don't place the rope in correct.
Not handy at all for lead climbing because then you have to take away the blocking device.
also rappeling doesn't work that good, it's not designed for that.
