the clutch on the spiderjack is designed for 11-13mm rope on the same clutch how long have you had the spiderjack and have you been controlling your descents, don't mean that in a you don't know what you are doing way, just fast and hard descents can cause the clutch to wear fast.

Adam Bourne replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in Climbers talk
throw line retrieval should always be done when removing and rope guide with pulley or cocoon, and guaranteed not to get stuck either mate. -

the karabina does look like its getting loaded funny also if its sliding round there could be a good chance of this opening the gate, is there no adjustment on the harness to add your own sliding-D, what harness is that anyway mate.

pinto configurations- wicked!
Adam Bourne replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in Climbers talk
Had a good climb on it yesterday, everything is working well the bridge stays in place, the side plates on the Pinto are not stressed in any direction they shouldn't be, the cord its self seems to be ok on the twists but will monitor that constantly, as it may be putting a little stress on the cord but, seems fine, as for retrieval it works better than my art rope guide so happy days. i've decided to call it a twisted false splice. would like some input on that so fire away. Thanks Adam:thumbup: -
