Rope Wrench feedback

[Dan Curtis]

...and on to the new bits! I know DMC Dave posted somewhere in this thread he was trying out the uni with a rw. I gave it a try on the demo at the arb show earlier this year and had to have the setup for myself to try out in a real working situation, without that fall arrest gubbins we had to wear.

 

The uni isn't supposed to wear too well, but I'm thinking that the rw might take some of the friction away, potentially increasing it's lifespan. I'll be testing the uni with and without the rw over the next few months and I'll keep you posted

 

Btw that tether is for picture purposes, it will be different for work

Wow, a Uni and a ZK2! Blinged up!!

With a tether straight from Uni to RW that should be great.

Lucky boy.

Hmmm, maybe something that could easily be taken on and off...

Good point. I was thinking of stiffness.

I like the look of that, I need something nice and compact I reckon.

 

How are you getting on with the combo Dave?

[Dan Curtis]

This would be my only concern with the uni/rw setup. Had any issues with that?

 

I suppose its similar to if the rw turned over onto a hitch but never had that happen to me. I've mainly used the wrench with the Lj, which wouldn't be an issue

This is what I've been using with the uni ( used a black diamond belay krab with zk1)-Kong rated srewgate. It works great, been trying out hitchhiker for a couple of weeks...still undecided which best...bit more tweaking of hitch and think HH might have edge for me personally...

[Dan Curtis]

How come you've got the thimble there? Wouldn't you clip into the top eye of the uni for LOTS?

[Old Mill Tree Care]

Also caorran, what do you clip the screw gate Karab onto?

[Dan Curtis]

Just put two and two together there, ignore my question!

 

The top eye of the uni I'm guessing OMT
