:dito: Im pretty sure that Blaze was developed specifically for use with mechanical ascenders/descenders,while XTC was developed specifically for use with hitch cord.

Does anyone use the cinch while chogging down,choked off,and descending the tail? Or recommend any other mechanical descender for this? Cheers in advance.

i use cinch for chogging down with the rope on a running bowline type thing so i can decend on just a pole

although tbh have been a massive fan of cinch i am only a fan now

spiderjack is my main system and is also good for decending on but am not fully sure of whether your supposed to

i don't believe you can with the positioner

just took delivery of my new cinch today and was just wondering due to the design if it will suit me or not. i have my positioner/hitch on the left side but the cinch looks like it wants to be on the right hand side. anyone using it on the left?

 

The cinch is actually designed to be used on the left i think, its the twist that incurs when you use it on the left that makes it run more fluid.

Any users of the Edelrid Eddy as a positioner?

 

Is it the cost of the device that puts the Cinch ahead of the eddy for you guys?

 

Cost of the eddy may be a factor . It is a lot bigger and heavier than the cinch . Why not use petzl grigri . Getting my cinch after crimbo and loads of other new goodies well excited .

 

Anybody use the wild country ropeman mk 1 or 2 as a positioner .
