I twisted the webbing today and it’s way better for me. I was having trouble getting the upper half snug especially for walking and climbing but now it fits my 31” waist like a glove. The molle is unchanged but it does effect the linesman loops but with the way they linesman angles up it’s not a problem. Check out the video posted above. I haven’t tried the shock cord belt though because I think with my sticks and platform hanging from the sling during the climb will be too much weight and pull the sling down? Plus I haven’t felt an issue with the stock belt.
The awesome thing about the shock cord is when you go from hanging to standing (or anytime you go slack) It keeps everything exactly where you left it when you sit back down without any adjustment.
