Art Positioner Thumbs up from me.

[Ian Flatters]

Just got a ART positioner 2nd hand fro Mr Sorenson:thumbup1: and must say why did i not buy one sooner. I love it!

 

Just thought i'd be super sad and share my happiness with you:laugh1:

CINCH Belay Device

 

It cost me a lot less than the clinch and its not the swivel positoiner (even cheaper) so i still had money to got for a brecky at the cafe:thumbup:

I don't think the swivel positioner is much of an improvment, just a variation. I've got a positioner like yours and they are great, but since the Cinch came out I've not used it. The Cinch is cheaper I think and it just does what its supposed to do a bit better than a positioner IMO, plus it can also be used on a single line so it opens up more work positioning possibilities.

 

The positioner though is a huge improvement on any friction hitch set up so a good bargain I'm sure. Plus if it was Tony's then it would have only been used about twice!!

i went from a positioner to a cinch, ow im back to the positioner. its just smoother than the cinch, i prefer it.

But doesn't the CINCH only work on ropes up to 11 mm diameter? Whereas the ART Positioner will accept up to 13mm. Just something to consider.
