Done the course allready, however they weren't port-a-wraps we used, something different. I know they more or less work on the same principle (friction) i just wondered if there might be a certain way you had to use these ones. However i used it a couple of days ago and it worked fine.

I've always used large Buckingham portawrap, but i am currently at a company who have the small copy you guys were talking about - i don't find it anywhere near as good as the Buckingham - it locks up very easily with light limbs its almost impossible to get the chunks to run! I find half wraps impossible to get too, it changes how the devise sits and the rope jumps off. Am i doing something wrong? Or am i just working with a cheap nasty copy? I have never has a problem with the Buckingham!
