    Anyone have a preference? Want to use something for belaying two seconds simul primarily on 4 and easy 5th class.

    Theyre basically the same

    on thicker ropes the mammut alpine smart works better on autoblock

    just be aware of the possible autoblock failure modes

    Got an ova. Like it well for easy 4 and 5th class. A bit fiddly for rappelling but works well with two carabiners for the brake.

    A Petzl Reverso 4 has basically the same weight as the CAMP ovo (58g vs 59g; 1 g difference), and in my opinion a much better handling. I dont see any reason to take those old-school plates.
