The rope that comes with the Zillon lets it down IMO. Not tried it with a different rope but should be just as good as the zigzag I would have thought

 

 

It is. Petzl want you to only use their rope and the CE mark is for both the rope and device as a complete package. I would be happy to LOLER the Zillon without a rope and then a separate split tail of choice.

(Don't tell Bolam though, he might grass me to the ARB police [emoji57])

That's what I do with the Grillon I split it all down to individual items, get the ticks in the boxes then make it up as I please with passed items.

Thanks for the insight - I thought it would be a steepish learning curve with the SJ 3. It would be good to hear any feedback after another weeks climbing use. I think you will eventually master those anomalies. [emoji106]1:

Il keep you posted! I'll try and get some good videos for YouTube so you can see for yourself!

Can you hear that in the distance Timon? That's the sound of sirens that is.

I can't think of a single advantage of any of these over a short VT with a pulley.

Maybe I'm just tight.

I used to think that, then I bought a positioned.

 

Does your hitch not get memory after a while making it a pain to take up slack?

 

The positioner releases so easily, no matter how heavy the climber.
