Great sling for trad climbing. I really like having two loops so you can balance out your gear.
The large back strap/pad distributes weight well, but can get a little warm on a hot day. It pretty comfortably carries 15 to 20 pounds of gear, above that the loops would need to be stiffer to keep gear from cramming into the bottoms of the loops.
Overall I'm very pleased with it. Much more comfortable than single padded shoulder slings as it does not dig into your neck the way they do. It fits much like a vest with weights in the pockets would.
