Picked up one of these to try out last week.

Will see how it holds up long term. at 130grams seems a good light weight option vs the old school snatch block.

The Red Winch is about $80 from memory the soft shackle was $70.

The red winch would hold up fine. Not so sure about the gator jaw having that rubbing in the one spot continuously, but I agree it looks a great light weight alternative to a snatch block. 

You may have to throw out the gator jaw after a couple of uses.

Both items feel of a very high quality. I also have a road safe soft shackle. This gator jaw feels of significantly better quality, It is also close to double the price though.
