What do climbers use for a safety cinch on their ropes that only allow one way of freedom unless they use some sort of positive release?
I bought the guardian fall protection kit and am not at all satisfied with the mechanism they use because it doesn’t actually lock the rope in place until there is tension on the rope that would happen during a fall.
Here is a picture of it.
I want to decide when the tension is lessened on the rope, I want to squeeze or release a mechanism every single time that I wish to move any perceptible distance on a roof.
I don’t want the stress of wondering how far I gotta drop before the rope gets ahold of me.
Sorry if this question isn’t related to this forum, I’ve simply removed myself from any unnecessary online jibber jabber and this is one of very few I post in anymore
If it helps I tie the rope off on my tractor that is on opposite side of building
Thanks
