awesome and thanks...I do have a safegard but my belief is always have something in case you lose it or it breaks bla bla bla...I believe 2 is 1 and 1 is noneYes it’s a smoother operating belay device than the Madrock. It holds your position when advancing and it has a panic braking feature in case you pull the lever too hard while rappelling. I use a gri gri plus when I SRT, just be sure to pay attention to the rope size specifications.
Never mind if I would have used the search feature instead of being lazy I’d have seen the answer sorry guys.I know that a lot of folks use the MR with 8mm rope even though it’s out of spec, myself included using it at my own risk, is the GriGri more particular to spec though?
where in the world did you find a safeguard??I have a new one sitting on my desk and have a Mad Rock safeguard arriving on Thursday. I will try out both side by side and let you know what works best. My initial thought is that the MR Safeguard will work better for ascending and the GriGri+ will work better descending. This is based on research, not first hand use, so I will let you know if this is actually true.
