    I have both and in my experience I had the most trouble with the pulley saver. Mainly on retrieval and especially when I choked it tight. Sure it can be used in more configurations (that I never really used it for) but the ropeguide has so many refinements that I appreciate now I own one eg cam loosening when you retrieve, trapeze, set lenth of retrieval tether, shock absorber etc. The PS is now gathering dust in my kit bag.

    I bought some teufelberger tachyon thinking it was the same as the regular one but it turns out its 11.2mm was a bit disappointed as it killed my hands. Now I've got used to it (my hands) its great, a thinner line is the way with the sj.

    The guy in the shop warned me off the slaice. He said it often got stuck in his pulley saver and had problems retrieving?? Strange as there isn't much difference between the PS and RG. Seconded on tachyon tho.

  17. coleman
    Whenvyou pick the mushroom look at the bottom of the stem. It should be tapered to a point. If not then its not collibia.

    Don't get a slaice if you use a pulley saver or similar it will get stuck

    Those things are solid, traded mine in for a 406. What a mistake that was.

    Ford mondeo. Cheap second hand. Cheap to fix. And the tdci engine is a proper work horse. Wish I had waited for one instead of my vectra estate.

    I havnt had time to install the pulleysaver with it but i checked that the weight couldn't pass through the pinto which i can't, so i would imagine it would work as they both use the same principal. The only thing that may be an issue is wear on the rope eye from pulling the throw line through it, the ropeguide has a steel ring so no issue.
