Does the job
I have had this for a few years and used it a number of times mainly in Switzerland and on relatively short routes. Have total confidence in its ability, although I have never been in a situation to try it out for real, thankfully

Very comfortable
I have been using Vertigo on Italian ferratas, it is light, easy and fast in use. Never had to experience a fall either but I totally trust it :)
