Re: Majestic
Something that I've seen with pintos spliced like this is that the retrieval shackle can get sucked up between the legs of the Prussic. Had it happen a few weeks ago, and your stuck. It's a right pain. I'd now just put a spacer between and splice a loop to stop this happening.

Re: Majestic
I was toying with that idea Drew. I suppose the load on each leg of the pinto would equalise better.
Here's a standard one I did the other day |

 lolDito to what Ben said. Don't think the blocks have any new colours yet. The new HC's and Pintos do look cool. |
