Best DRT device available in my opnion
I’m a new climber and I love the zigzag! Easy to use (for me that saying something as I only have 1 hand (ied in Iraq). It’s small, robust, extremely smooth and with the chicane does DRT and srt. It excels in DRT, which is my preference whenever possible. I’ve used it srt, but prefer to use an srt specific device if available. I run mine on 11.8mm adrenaline and it runs great! Not being mid line attachable isn’t as convenient but it’s dang near bomb proof! Trust my life to Petzl 100%

I love the quality and ease of use.
Make sure you thread the rope through correctly. Use good, certified climbing rope. Do not use the cheap Chinese rope for climbing. Your life depends on it. It may not have the proper qualities to use these devices safely. A Zigzag Plus along with a good rope is a great experience. I like to use bifrost; but many professional ropes Made in USA are suitable for use with this device. The EU also makes good ropes.

Nearly perfect device.
I’ve purchased a few of these things to keep on different rope setups. After a few years of using the Rope Runner Pro I went back to the Zig Zag and doubt I’ll ever switch devices again. These things are the smoothest devices on the market and the fact that there is a connection point to receive the return end of rope while using DRT (90% of my climbing) makes the device nearly tend itself while ascending. This feature alone sets it above the competition. While midline attachable devices are handy, I haven’t found that feature to outweigh the benefits I get from the Zig Zag. My Zig Zags stay on my ropes for the most part and just get stashed into my rope bag at the end of every flaking.

I love it!
I want to give it 5 stars, but the fact that you have to modify the ends of any rope larger than 11mm leaves a bit to be desired. Great ascender/descender, silky smooth and super easy to use once you get your rope router thru. I actually love it. Way better for tree work and just about anything else than the petzl id…I know they’re really not even in the same category, but I’ve used my id for many different applications so…Anyway, it’s a great device.
