Only a few climbs with this installed but at the moment I am loving it. I can get that 1 hand adjust just like a mechanical ascender but still have the security of the prusik knot and no worry if a mechanical ascender failing. I am very new to saddle hunting so to have an option that works the same to quick easy adjustment to get confidence in the gear is nice.
