This is an ultralight stick clip that you can take up a route with you. Let's you work all those scary cruxes on TR! My clipup had a broken segment and Kailas fixed it SUPER fast. You can also screw a eye bolt into the bottom and clip it your harness easier. I still have a giant full size clip for short approaches, but this things never leaves my bag.

Before long, it became very difficult to open, and in less than a year was unusable. Lubricant doesn't solve the problem. This happens because it is made out of cheap material. Not worth the price.

Used it a few times already and definitely works well. I do wish it was 2 ft longer especially because I'm 5'2" but you can make do with it!

I've tried most of the commercial stick clip designs available and this one is simply the best all-around, and the most versatile. Someone I know has an earlier model with a tent-pole like stick, but in the current model, the stick is vastly improved and uses a telescoping action with a twist lock to fix the length while clipping.

My go-to standard is a Superclip attached to a standard painter's pole. Once you use one of these, you will never go back to something like a Trango Squid, or worse, the old spring clamp bodged onto the end of a pole. I bought this for traveling, since my pole won't fit into a duffel bag, and many other collapsible poles just aren't long enough. This product offers the best combination of a pole that is 1) rigid enough to be useful (a frequent shortcoming of many other portable stick clips, 2) long enough for most modern sport climbing areas, and 3) still compresses to a very compact, portable package. The clip is very good as well. It appealed to me since the overall shape is very similar to the Superclip. The key to this design is that it allows you to easily unclip already hanging draws as well as to hang them in the first place. In most other designs, this is tricky to impossible. This ability is great for backing off something over your head, or allowing you to leave the first draw and stay trammed in while cleaning very overhanging routes to avoid swinging out into the trees.

The wire of the clip itself is much thinner than the Superclip, and I worry slightly about how robust and durable its attachment to the pole will be in the long run, but so far it has been fine. I plan to make sure to protect this area when it is packed in luggage to prevent damage. The clip works with a variety of carabiners, although I found it necessary to twist some biners around to get it to open the gate sufficiently. It certainly doesn't hold the gate open as strongly as the Superclip, but I got it to work on a large variety of carabiner shapes and various bolt hanger designs.

Overall, I would highly recommend this product. If you are hard on equipment and throw things around, I would be slightly concerned about the durability of the stick-to-clip attachment, but this is only from observation and not from any issues. If you take care of your gear, and need something compact to carry around, or to fly with, there's nothing better on the market, and this should last you a long time.

This is an awesome stick clip! It is plenty long for most sport areas (barring some areas at the New or the Red perhaps) and functions very well. It folds up small enough to easily fit on the side of a pack and weighs pretty much nothing. All my partners thought it was super cool and were very envious. It is super easy to use for getting a draw up or getting the rope in to the draw and it is very easy to fold out and back in. The only problem I saw with it is that it didn't work well with small carabiners such as BD Neutrinos or Trango Phases. Perhaps if you bend the wires closer together it would accommodate them, but I have not tried. However, it works perfect for larger sport climbing draws. Overall, a solid, cool product that it so much more convenient and less bulky than a big heavy painter's pole and $20 cheaper than the Trango Beta Stick.
