Andrew F. ★★★★★

Didn't think I'd care about a leash until I dropped a tool on a WI5 last winter. This one barely registers on my harness, and the elastic gives just enough slack for full swings without the tool ever leaving my hand.

Andrew ★★★★★

Clipped this onto my tools for a steep WI5 pitch and barely noticed the weight, which is saying something since my old tether felt like dragging a brick. The leashless setup still lets me swap hands at screws without fumbling, and nothing came unclipped all day.

Sebastian D. ★★★★★

Took these up a multi-pitch alpine route where dropping a tool meant game over, and the tether system never once got in the way. Barely noticed the weight, which is saying something when you're already hauling gear at altitude.
