Mine is power up and down. One of the best additions, bar none! I would prefer a free fall but just by a little bit. To put it in perspective, I rarely have to anchor in over 40" of water and and the extra time has not proven to be that much of an issue.

If it is, I just pop the rode off the gypsy and let it fall! Tie/cleat it and then set the rode back in the gypsy. It doesn't even know what I've done and loves to pull it back up!
