    RECALL: Ropeman 3



    http://www.wildcountry.co.uk/communi...ice_Ropeman_3/

    Anyone have problems with this device?

    Worked great for me in all 8-9mm rope applications. Bit hard on my 6mm for sh!ts and giggles practice. Seems like those w/ 10-11mm larger diameter ropes ropes were experiencing some slippage?? That's just what I 've gathered from product reviews. Does anyone know if there were actual field problems?? Finally, a device that works GREAT on thin ropes ... RECALLED. Just my .02

    You don't HAVE to send it back. Sounds like they are going to put the pointy type cam on it.

    Been using a Kong Duck without incident this year. Very similar to the RM3.
