Gutted for you but not surprised cole. F that piece of crunk stick to your spiderjack :)

 

Wasnt mine it was Kevs...fatty! Ive abused mine and its still sweet! but to tell the truth its just a robot hitch climber, the only advantage the ZZ has over the HC is the no sit back...my HC even tends better than the ZZ and decending on it is no way as fun or smooth as the SJ. If i had to give it back i wouldnt miss it!!

All this complaining I use mine all the time check it daily I'm not soft on my gear and no sign of cracks or damage I'd really like to know how there breaking as I've heard nothing just pictures and complaints if there that easy to damage then why hasn't mine bust, if it breaks il be saying how it's happened but I'm hammering the **** out of it and no sign of damage

whats worring me is in there saftey update they say they cant work out how they broke so to me that suggests that they are not testing them rigorously enough.

oh and its now six that have been sent back , starting to think about swapping my new one for a lockjack while its still in the packet.

no you cant

 

After the initial cost of a lock jack you only need to replace the cams every year or so (£10) maybe a friction plate ever 5 years (£20) and if I'm being perfectly honest with the the rope you already use with a prussik you can change without spending even more money which can do the job of a zig zag no need to change to a 11.5m rope. It just seems crazy to use one specially after the first recal

 

I didn't come here to knock the ZZ it just doesn't make sence to use one for the cost specially if you can't replace any parts

Plus lack of confidence in petzl

 

Forgot to add modifications I've added a swivel to mine. Which at the end of the day I see ART making existing equipment better
