The click up. People seem to love it already.

These things look pretty bitchin I have to say. Where did you get yours Caribe?

I did order one of these and when I brought it to the gym where I climb in PA, most people were skeptical. After we used it for the night, everyones' opinion was changed.

I had one at the crag over the weekend. I think my buds who tried it were favorably impressed also. I like it. Older ropes are harder to manage (buddy had a new 10.2 mm that worked fine), but my no means impossible.

I've been promoted to bud? Or, did you climb in Sunday too.

Yeah, actually the device looked easy to use. Andrew used it with just a few quick instructions. The lowering process is smooth. If a gri-gri is too pricey, this would be a good alternative.

This device could be preferable to a gri gri actually--it appears keeping the brake hand all the time is a part of the ergonomic design of the device and much easier relative to a grig, but it is still self-locking for the purpose of belaying a climber while working a project. This could help avoid many a problem such as the one over on that "other" thread...

I'm down to try it out anyway. Plus it's lighter and meant to work on thinner ropes.... a big problem with grigri (ie. belayer) failure is that they aren't designed for ropes under 9.6. Of course, this should be improved with the GriGri2....

'I know a guy who know a guy . . . ' a dealer gave me a sweet deal that I could not pass up. I can't say more.

I ordered mine from Open Tip for $49.95. Delivery was about a week.

Do you like it?

[GWG]

Yes. Very simple to use. I use it just like an ATC and if I understand what you mean about keeping your brake hand as part of the ergonomic design, you are correct. It doesn't feel awkward to use at all.

I don't use it at the gunks because of the amount of climbing I do with double ropes and double rope raps.

I ordered one from opentip. They charged me $55 plus $10 shipping plus $3.50 handling fee.
You can ship this item any place in lower 48 states for $5 us postal service.
I used the click up, it's ok but I will stick with the Gri gri.
I found that the auto locking would kick in when you did not want it to
while feeding rope for a quick clip. Any suggestions welcome.
I used it only once. It's yours for $40 if you want it. I'll pay the shipping.
PM me if you want it.
