This is one tool that I enjoy using on different set ups. It can be used in DRT and SRT set ups ( RADS with additional Grigri and a pulley).
Readily available at a reasonable cost. I have seen at least 3 RTC climbers using it at the most resent get together at FDR park. I was initially shown this tool by D.House in Nebraska at I was impressed with the fact that it self advances on the DRT set up. I recomend this tool for those climbers that like to add gear to their collections. I own the aluminun version. There are other uses for this tool as an addtion to your foot loops instead of using a prusik knot or use it to adjust a lanyard.
