I've got a small video to put up soon from a couple years back, but it's a scary thought to think I did a whole crane job with the central pin missing out the cam of my Art rope guide :(

 

I thought it had happened when retrieving it from taking out the last section but when I watched the footage back and see it missing when I put it in I went as white as a ghost!!

 

Pulley saver for me hands down :)

I went from a pulley saver back to using a mutisaver as I found that having no friction whatsoever tended to make my friction hitch lock up/incinerate it quite quickly. I think the weight of the climber is an important factor and its less of an issue for the lighter climbers. I weigh around 15 stone and prefer slightly more friction in the system as found my equipment works better. That said I pretty much only climb SRT now (yes I know...yawn!) so friction saver is not needed.
