By Ranked #645 - Big Wall Climbing June 9, 2009

Any one used this to secure the leader when simule climbing? ( clip it on to one of the pieces between the leader and the follower so that if the follower falls the leader does not get pulled of the wall) If so is it okey? And is it better to use than the petzl tiblock?

I have only used the tibloc. The way this thing looks though makes me think there is a spring involved? If there is then i wouldn't work as well. Not sure though. Don't know if this helped?!
