How does the CT ascender manage to jam less against knots?
Is it just easier to pull the cam down, or is it something in the frame geometry (that doesn't look much different to the Petzl design in the pictures.
Current Petzl rope bags seem hugely overpriced, and rather less durable than the various older designs with 2" straps top-to-bottom.
In fact, I'm not sure why people only seem to make bags with adjustable straps, since the last-generation good petzl bag with fixed 2" straps had them exactly the right length, and there were no buckles to concentrate wear.
I suppose the Dragon/Phoenix/Beast designs with field-replaceable 1" lower tapes are a notable exception, but with other bags, it really sucks when they're otherwise sound, but one of the straps has worn through at the buckle or base, and it's a stitching job to fix it.
