sobo Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 "...Step Two: Thread the 1/2 " static rope through the mechanism..." "...without the bulky and complicated equipment of the past...", yet it weighs 1.2 pounds? Why is static rope specifically stated? Is it not rated for dynamic rope applications? It appears that other rope size versions are available, but what good would this thing be to most climbers, other than wall-haulers? Seems very, very heavy and extremely limited in its application for climbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Hey, Scott- this lure works better than I expected. Look at the size of this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobo Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 "...ORDER YOURS TODAY! Only $179.95 + S&H..." WTF??? Yeah, right! What a POS. Hell, three or four biners would be a better deal. Just go get a Reverso or an ATC-XP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottP Posted March 17, 2005 Author Share Posted March 17, 2005 I was wondering if they have actually had real "mountain climbers" use the thing. I especially liked the 1.2 lb "lightweight" feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COL._Von_Spanker Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 I was wondering if they have actually had real "mountain climbers" use the thing. I especially liked the 1.2 lb "lightweight" feature. Yes they did, it can be seen in the photo below: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottP Posted March 18, 2005 Author Share Posted March 18, 2005 I saw that photo and thought "Sport Rappeller", but on further viewing...yes...I... believe I can see the mountain climber in there somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ade Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 It weights over a pound. Why do I even care it exists? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 almost as amazing as the electronic carabiner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
