I use the ATN occasionally, and as someone mentioned, you really do need the pre-stressed dedicated ascending line. I think he does try to sell you one with the package, but I thought, “that is just an overpriced line’, like a typical cheap-ass sailor. Well, when I first went up my Stay-Set, for every 36” I went up, I came back down 18. Kind of like motoring into a strong tide. I brought it out to work and tied one end to a post, and the other to a Hyster and stretched the crap out of it and let it sit like that for a day in the sun. Huge Improvement!

It works well enough once you get the hang of it but unless you are fairly athletic, be prepared to make rest stops. It is more of an upper body workout than it appears in the video.
