nifty idea there i like it

 

There are mixed opinions on this method.

 

Some say that the additional karabiners increase the chances of sideloading and so should be avoided. I dont have a problem with it myself but its worth pointing out the potential downsides of this method.

 

I just like having the option to multi rig at any stage and so the rigging plate just stays there. Clip the new branch on, and then remove the spare sling. Simples.

what types of redirects do you use?

 

For the climb line its just a daisychain sling with two revolver krabs, and the rigging line is just an another fixed pulley. DMM impact block small.

 

So I could pull my climb line out of the tree with the redirect but still had to go back up to get the rigging pulleys out. Left the access line in the oak for that purpose.

It was a bit strange removing the trunk of the Syc as I went along, usually of course that would be the rigging point but it was in the way so had to go.

 

The drooping line is a retrieval for the rigging line.
