friction saver

I'm begining to dislike petzl ascendors the teeth are just to agressive, I ripped the outer cover of my rope with a pantin recently, the pantin gets used so little these days, its easier to footlock.

 

I'm using Kong double ascendors to footlock into the tree at the moment, but will try to move onto a knot soon, although the Kong's are easier to use.

 

As for installing a rope guide from the ground I never bother, as 90% of the time I footlock into the tree then install the rope guide.

 

I'd probably stick to a normal cambium saver if I wantted to install something fro the ground much easier.
