[QUOTE="beastmaster, post: 3959610, member: 11550"] I haven't used one yet either, but I am using my gri gri more and more lately, but it has several draw backs, one being the line doesn't flow throu it very easily, another is you have to pull slack upward. Not a problem from what I can see with the spider and lock jack. As far as being unable to attach midline, I use a Vt with a hitch climber pulley and rarely remove it from the rope in my day in day out usage so that's not a deal breaker for me. I would sure like to try one or both out before shelling out that much money. I got my my eye on the new ,''Hitch hiker'', It seems pretty sweet, and simple, plus can be used for both SRT or DRT. The price on them is half of what their getting for a spiderjack. [/QUOTE]
