“It definitely takes a lot of getting used to, but once you have it is awesome. Used it in every mode and all work well. Lowering in guide mode is a bit of a faff but that is very rarely done. Perfect for abseiling also, I personally no longer feel the need for a backup then. Holding lead falls is effortless. Absolutely awesome lightweight belay plate that does everything”
“Very intuitive to use, similar to the action on a dmm mantis but with a very helpful loop to guide you during lead belay. I wouldn't rely on the auto braking, but it worked solidly when I abseiled on it. Abseiling is a little jumpy due to autobrake.”
