would this be suitable for canyoneering or not? i am just looking for something that i can use while clipped into and above an anchor while setting up the rope(s) for raps. just not sure if this is designed for that or not. if not, any recommendations?

I wouldn't use any piece of non-dynamic gear if I'm above the anchors. Check on you-tube for gear testing videos...it's amazing how short of a fall can overwhelm static nylon with moderate mass, less than what a person typically weighs.

ok i wasn't sure if it was ok to use this while clipped into an anchor and above it in case i slipped since as i understand it, it is not dynamic.
