ART Snaketail

Just got this through today, looks a very versatile tool, video on YouTube somwhere I think explaining a lot of them, I'll be mainly using it as redirects with my wrench, but there is quite a lot of other uses , I'll keep you updated, anyone else use one?

I've not seen these. I use the Liteanchor, which is great. Nicely engineered piece of kit.

I did not like it as don't like using a crab to connect into away from me

Thought the thimble would of fitted through where the crab goes

Well I loved it on the first outing today, only used it as a redirect, but usefull when my co-climber quickly clipped a pinto pulley below my redirect as his cambium, doing two jobs in one, just found it very easy to use

I would say they are a bit of an overkill for a re-direct. I do like them as a base anchor due to the shock absorbing properties.

It's a very expensive daisy chain redirect!!! But it's a cool piece of kit

[James Atkinson]

Yea I get the whole price thing, there not cheap, I do like it though, and having the whole shock absorber thing is nice to know, daisy chains have had a few bad story's if I'm correct?
