What else can be used in place of this for one sticking? Thanks.
I should have phrased it better.. For rappelling downFor 1-stick CLIMBING (not rappelling)? A prussik or other friction knot (like kleimheist, distel, etc) or a mechanical ascender like a ropeman or kong duck (though there are questions about safety of these).
If you’re looking for a good, safe, cheap alternative then I’d try a prussik with a tender.
Thanks guys. The safeguard is sold out everywhere. I've seen JCline's video's. So for one sticking I could just climb with a prussic and tender. Once ready to come down hook up an autoblock and ATC and rappel down correct?
I just ordered a safeguard straight from MadRock websiteThanks guys. The safeguard is sold out everywhere. I've seen JCline's video's. So for one sticking I could just climb with a prussic and tender. Once ready to come down hook up an autoblock and ATC and rappel down correct?
With the Grigri you hook in with in once you're ready to rappel or can you leave it hooked in the entire time you hunt? ThanksI vastly prefer the GriGri+ over the Madrock for rappelling. More expensive but much smoother brake.
They have them now. Yesterday they were sold out. ThanksI just ordered a safeguard straight from MadRock website

Thanks!You can leave it hooked on. Works same as the Safeguard but just seems smoother when rappelling.
There are few models of GriGri.. which one do you recommend? ThanksI vastly prefer the GriGri+ over the Madrock for rappelling. More expensive but much smoother brake.
