Don’t let the Smart 2.0 device confuse you. Most belay devices which can be used to rappel will essentially work the same way, each with their own minor strengths and weaknesses. The main point for such a setup is whichever device you pick, I’m trying to illustrate that the device connects to your bridge, and your backup hitch is at your 2-3 o’clock on your LB loop. I started rappelling in this configuration using a Black Diamond Super 8 figure eight plate. But, I always had to switch over from the separate tether which I climbed and hunted from. I wanted a method to climb and rappel on the same tether so I could bail out whenever I wanted. So far, this seems like the system *for me. Others may have other preferences.
