Since the Alien debate has been reignited I'm just curious.
How many people climb with non CE or UIAA rated slings and other soft goods? I personally have a pile of slings from regional sources like Ragged Mountain and Mountain Tools, both of which don't have a CE certification. I also have reslung cams from Mountain tools, also no CE rating. Full disclosure, I do own Aliens and have no qualms climbing with them.
