Ascension Handled Ascender
There's a reason that the Petzl Ascension Handled Ascender is the most popular ascender for big wall climbers. Its simple, functional, ergonomic design makes it the choice for any aid line out there. The thumb catch makes it easy to partially release the cam and ease your progress low on the pitch where rope weight isn't helping you yet. Wet, muddy, or icy ropes? Not a problem for this ascender's super-aggressive teeth. Petzl also added a top carabiner loop as an additional security measure for when you're cleaning the Great Roof.

- I've put it through the wringer
Whether you're caving, climbing, canyoneering, routesetting, hauling equipment... you should have an ascender on your harness, period! I use this in conjunction with a rollclip carabiner through the top, a grigri with the break strand redirected through the rollclip, and a foot loop for easy ascending. Personal preference, but I also prefer to use a left-handed ascender even though I'm right-handed.
