I was speaking to a rep the other day from Spanset and we got talking about the stop and apparently petzl no longer recommend using the breaking crab this way and instead now recommend the braking crab is hooked in the same crab that the stop is hooked onto.... If that makes sense

I think it is implying that if the braking crab is NOT on the same crab or mallion as the stop but on a loop along side it, then it may actually loop over the end of the stop and your donald ducked then.

What a class write up - was considering learning rope techniques but think I've been put off for now haha! Not to mention I'm scared of heights (probably not a good start!)
