Grivel A&D Left Ascender

Up vs down vs…down?

Pros
Has a built in rappel plate
Very smooth to operate, easy to use with heavy gloves
Feels very ergonomic in the hand
Cons
Heavier than the Petzel Ascension
Familiarity
I’ve used it a ton

An excellent ascender. With its ability to double as a rappel device/decender I think it holds a high value in any aid or trad rack. Easy to use, feels good in the hand and provides a sense of dependability as per most Grivel products.
