I think sales will be very slow when it comes out,people will give it time to make sure we don't go down the same route again.

 

Yeah i wont be buying from petzl again

This occurrence does not affect my opinion of Petzl at all. Being as they are already manufacturing a MK2 shows that they are working hard on it. The first ZigZag was a great piece of kit and the MK2 will be even better and hopefully with no problems.

The only people who make no mistakes, are those who make nothing.

Were they already working on mk2 ? Or have they just started last week? Who knows for sure, but I would think if there were no issues they would not be working on mk2.

 

Its not their style to bring out new models of the same thing that quickly. I'm guessing they are devasted (maybe not the right word as it implies emotion) about this failure as they genuinly would not have concieved it was possible.

 

They are way too big a company to allow mistakes like this to happen. I wonder how high up the sackings have gone!

My personal gear is almost petzl free(just 2 crabs) have been looking at the spider jack 2.1 since this came to light lol. Dont get me wrong i loved it at first but this has put me off.

 

Maybe some time away MIGHT change my mind if and when it comes out
