Anyone actually tried one of these ? :

(you may have to click on asym spi furlers to see the page)

Looks a lot simpler in some respects than a sock, but I'd guess you  
are restricted to an asym whose luff is no longer than the straight  
line dimesnion.

I also suspect the potential for monumental balls ups is high but .....

Has anyone here actually tried one ?
