That looks like just what I need on my steep roof, too - it has to be much
safer than throwing a rope over the roof and anchoring it to the deck, then
pulling myself up, which is what I've had to do to keep from slipping. But I
know it's unsafe.
I wonder if it's really worthwhile or even necessary to use two of them instead
of just one? Or would one be sufficient?
