Just what I was looking for. Light weight, easy to adjust my distance from the anchors when cleaning a route, nice bright colors, and a "free" Metolius sticker. Life is good.
When cleaning this is definitely a must, it allows you to adjust your height from the bolts so your not hanging and stretching so far like you get with just slings. Holds up well and works great. Bottom line if you want to be comfertable when hanging out up top go to this PAS
I bought the black/green one a couple months ago and couldn't be happier with it! I use it all the time and it's very versatile for any anchoring and safety needs. I use mine to hang from every time I am playing with my prusiks. I ascend up to the top of the wall, clip this in for safety, swap my prusiks for my ATC, unclip it and ascend down. Definitely the best PAS chain out there!Andy

I've been using slings and runners to setup anchors and it can be a pain to get the length right sometimes, especially at a hanging belay. This PAS is great because it's easy to adjust the length and each loop is individually rated.
This Anchor system is way to the top of the rest. Feels really secure and easy to handle in the wall. Easy to change you position with the loops and really helpful to have the end in other color, always makes you remember to be safe. I would recommend this article to any experienced and beginner climber.
Great new anchor system by Metolius. Easy to use and highly recommended! The reinforced loops make adjusting your system a cinch and the individually loops provide an added layer of security from a classic daisy chain.
There's nothing like feeling safe on the rock, and the individually rated loops on this anchor do just that. I use this as a personal anchor system and prefer it to cord, runners, and slings. Its easy to adjust the length and comes in many colors for quick differentiation between other equipment on your rack. Highly recommended.
Anchor tool, personal anchor, and many other uses. The real question isn't if you should buy one, its why haven't you bought one? Safer, light and useful. Buy one. It's totally worth it.
These things are sweet! They are super easy to use and very comfortable when belaying from them! Long, short, or whatever you need these things got yo back.

I have used this anchor system a lot since I got it for free. When I climb I usually have to run it between my legs and clip it to the back of my harness, which sucks when I have to set up an anchor to clean the route I just climbed. Depending on how far below my anchor I am I dislike having to move my carabiners to different loops.
