Recently while on an ice climb a soloist who stopped briefly at my anchor said that the GIGI was much better at belaying a second in "guide mode" than my ATC Guide because of how much easier it is to pull the rope through the device (especially important when climbing quickly on ice). I was wondering if anyone has used both and if the GIGI is that big of an improvement. Thanks

Ive been using the BD Aspect for a couple months now and would highly recommend it. It fits well, is light but also provides enough comfort to be bearable.

Wow, some really cool pictures!

Great TR. Nice photos too!
