Just out of interest to anyone who kept there mk 1 zig zag, have you noticed much wear at all on the cams,as in does it still grip as reliably a few months down the line?

cheers

Mines still just as good as the day I bought it, no rope wear, but I am on very thin rope.

The Zig Zag is the worst invention in arb. It's like something they had on Tomorrow's World in the 80s when they use to show you a really crap and useless gadget and say 'in 30 years time every household in Britain will have one of these' when in actual fact - 30 years later not one person in Britain actually owns a Sinclair C5.

 

The Petzl Zig Zag is the Sinclair C5 of the arb world :laugh1::biggrin:

yes, I'll give you that Huck, a few complete weirdos do own them as some kind of collectable oddity left over from the 20th century, much like the ZigZag will be viewed in a few years :laugh1:

 

The Zig Zag will make a great ornament in arb's workshops and garages across the land, sitting there sandwiched between a can of WD40 and silver gaffer tape :biggrin:
