I've got a tru ball, just went away from it because it was attatched to the strap via a string, but shot it for three years. no complaints. I just bought a scott little goose, and it has a few more things I like about it like being a single caliper as opposed to a double. this way the string comes out of the release the same way every time. I like it alot, but if something happened to it, I'd go right back to my tru ball.
