3-year guaranteePersonal ExperienceSo much nicer than the original Reverso and Reversino. The ability to utilize one device for the wider range of rope diameter's makes this the deal to get. Very effective in the Reverso mode and easy to release the pressure to free the rope and allow for continued use.
Overall, I love it and highly recommend it. Less bulkier than the BD ATC GUIDE and 30 grams lighter! Images |
