Another bombproof metolius offering. Thanks a ton, this device is versatile and strong, just what we needed. Save the Daisy Chains for aid climbing!
Personal Anchor System

I have had nothing but good experiences with the PAS since I got it. It's very easy to adjust, easy to work with and there are a couple of different ways to rig it unlike the traditional daisy.

My partner and I bought the PAS to try and speed up trad multipitch. It’s been great for that purpose. At the end of the pitch I clip a piece and call off belay. My second starts to break down while I build the new anchor. Once built, I tie in to the power point and clip the PAS as backup. The second arrives at the belay and clips the powerpoint with the their PAS. It reduces the clusterf**k.. It keeps everything neat and tidy and easy to inspect. To me that’s safer.
As a rappel cling it allows you to stay clipped to the anchor while setting up the rappel device on the nearest loop. Then unclip the far loop from the anchor and rap. You’re always on the anchor. Very neat and clean.
Don’t know what we did without it. And since it’s full strength, it’s much better than using a daisy.
