I certainly liked the compact size of the setup. The tether and lineman’s ball up small enough to stuff in a small cargo pocket for carry. The Jammy’s appear to be quality made but like I said, I’m hesitant at this point to rely on it. I’m pretty certain I’m going back to the system I used last year, Tethrd tether with Wild Country carabiners and a Ropeman 1. It might be a bit larger in my pack, but I’ll appreciate the piece of mind.Interesting, I just purchased the beal jammy and oplux rope yesterday. Is there anything you did like about the setup?
Is a ropeman1 ascender (cuts ropes around 4 kN) really peace of mind over a 22kN prusik loop?I certainly liked the compact size of the setup.

One of the thinnest 22kn rated prussick loops. People on oplux 8mm need them thin loops.What's so great about the beal jammy other than it being sewn? Could you not just go with another rope and knot it for the prusik?
Anyone tried sterling trc 6mm instead of the jammy?

What kind of knot setup are you running on your tether?I’m using Sterling TRC on my OpLux tether and LB, works great.

Are you girth hitching your tag end with the sewn eye on the Oplux? If so, what is the benefit of that?I’m using Sterling TRC on my OpLux tether and LB, works great.
