The unique sheave design has 8 gripping faces that directly resist loaded line movement. Traditional designs have an angled resistance to line movement. Ronstan's Generation 2 design has straight resistance faces which both distribute the load and minimize rope wear. These faces are offset from the radial line to draw the rope down into the gripping area when under load. With this automatic model, the ratchet mechanism engages when load is applied, but switches off when it's released. This lets the sheet run out smoothly and freely, so it's great for rapid easing of the sheet and for jibing asymmetric spinnakers.
