ART Ropeguide, is it worth it?

[AWarb00]

At £160 is it really worth it? Looks a very nice bit of kit i must say, also how does it compare to the Pulley saver, retrieving, setting in place etc

I have seen and used one and couldn't really find much difference to the pulley saver.

 

I have the teufelberger but climb more srt so don't need them now.

I had the trufflebugger one and after it failed it's LOLER i switched to the Ropeguide.

It's much better, gets stuck allot less due to the being chocked on ring instead of an eye in the rope.

Is much easier to adjust, even under load.

The retrieval clip is cleverly positioned so the cam opens as its being retrieved allowing slack into the system and making the un choking process much easier

Got the rope guide but cant make any comparison with the pulley saver.

Easy to use and i have never got it stuck, yet. feels solid and i have one with a massive strop so i can go around some sizeable timber. Wouldn't be with out it

Brilliant bit of kit. Had mine for about 5/6years ish. I've gone through trapeze's like they're going out of fashion though. D shackle attached to throw line now. Beats paying £35 each time.

Mate of mine had a pulley saver and another couple have made their own, the rope guide retrieves better because of that metal eye. Just make sure you have a fairly straight rope path when retrieving. Also, be aware of tight forks in limes, hornbeam etc.
