I use a 7 meter rope for the teufelberger CE lanyard with my positioner, at £50/60 for the rope it's a bit of an expensive layout but it seems like a match made in heaven, I've been on that for a couple of years without any creeping, I don't think I'd want to go any thinner though.

Got teufelberger dragonfly think its 11.1mm with Art positioner,works well no creep.lanyards still pretty new though and its part of my personal kit for subbing homers etc not my "main job" kit.I use a petzl zillon at work...wouldnt recommend that.

Only good thing about that CE lanyard is the little thimble prussik-very handy

fluffy as hell but works a treat.  Before that I used the cinch religiously for about 4 years.  Both great but I fancied a change.

 

i am not sure which I prefer tbh.

 Have you spliced blaze? I climbed on it for ages, was like wire!

What rope do you use the zillion with?  The oversized petzl one it ships with?

Yes Joe.  I have spliced up about 4 lanyards over the years.  Easy to splice if new.

 sound, tried to splice used blaze a few years back and lost the will to live. Can't have knots on my lanyard, does mutt head in!
