Hi,
Glad to have found this forum!
Located in Southern Ontario, eastern edge of GTA. A newb in every facet. New to hunting, saddles, archery, firearms, etc.
Currently putting together gear, learning basics of saddles.
Trying to learn how to rappel safely and wanted more experienced folk to comment on my rappelling setup.
Green rope is the climbing rope, which goes through a munter hitch attached to my bridge (fully extended). The backup is an autoblock attached to the linesman's belt (fully shortened), below the belaying hitch.
It seems to be working when I've tested it at home, but since I'm so new to this I wanted to know if I'm missing anything before I trust my life to it.
(My spouse had an evil glint in her eye after the amount of money I just spent on the saddle.... so I am not purchasing belay devices any time soon)
Thanks!
