Basically a fancy ATC. I have only used this device for top rope climbing in a gym so far. There is a bit of a learning curve but it is very intuitive if you are experienced at using an ATC. This device auto locks as long as the brake rope is held down, you don't need to put a lot of pressure on the rope, just keep it down; good when your heavy climbing parter wants to hang for awhile. I highly recommend this device over a grigri as there are no moving parts and it is much much lighter and cheaper. Excellent belay device. Basically a fancy ATC.
