I had exactly the same experience with beeline on cougar. My favourite on cougar is either hrc or liros dynamide -
Looks good

I've got two lengths one with a splice one with a ring. I pretty much only climb srt and mainly on the bone but when I've used it ddrt on the sj yeh it is static but tends a dream

I own a three and Cougar blue is the best around rope for those devices imo

Tachyon and cougar blue/grey mate both run great

I've get a pic up tomoz Gordon it's not my set up tho saw it on the buzz think Tyler posted it in a vid

Tachyon and cougar blue work brilliantly with the bone. And yes it can be used ddrt I believe that the best way is to use a thimble Prussic which you larks foot onto the lower Krab the clip top Krabi to the thimble end hope this makes sense

I've used 8mm armour Prus and 8 mm hrc both great more on hh than the rw though

I've had the same problem on cb too rich but only when it was really wet it should work a lot smoother when dryer. How are you finding the shackle tending point John? I guess that it's a lot easier to clip into does it tend any smoother? Cheers Luke

Tachyon and cougar blue both been working great for me on the standard bollard although my cougar become quite jerky on decent when it got really wet the other day

Delta link millions are useful to connect alpine butterfly's/ bowlines when choking at anchor points. As for advancing your tip there's a good vid on YouTube titled "ascending on the unicender" where the guy in the vid uses a double fig of eight and traps his line between the two loops of the eight with a bina which doesnt actually bear any weight so you don't have to worry about cross loading
