ISC UltraLink recall update

[Boomslang]

Oh fuck off. Just recall every single one of them and melt them down for scrap.

Regular Revolver carabiners are a joke. And you see them in all the discount bins for a good reason. Petzl's version is a little better, but not a lot. But you are talking about trying to incorporate a pulley into a carabiner, so you can't expect it to be very good. They have tried and failed to incorporate two good pieces of equipment into one unit, where neither one is sized to work with the other. Best thing is to use one of each, working with each other and leave the toys at home.
My 2¢

I agree with this. Never really saw the point. I keep a ct roll n lock on my saddle. Useful for so many different situations. Midline attachable, progress capture, small/light, but I would not use it as primary life support.
