Wild Country Ropeman 3 Recall

[Coldfinger]

Just received an email from WC stating that although the Ropeman 3 had passed CE testing, experience from the field indicates it does not perform as expected--particularly with grip on tensioned ropes. They are offering either a Ropeman 1 or 2 plus a free locker. My expeience with the 2 has been exceptional, just imho.
