Having bought one of these eights before, I decided to again take advantage of the great price for the good product it is. I have no problems with it, and believe it is faster than some of the other eights. Wish they had other colors though!

Merchant response: Figure 8's are time tested in the world of climbing and serve a purpose. That said…this device is not recommended for belaying but is intended for rappelling.
