Item #PTZ0167 | 0 in Stock

I'm heading to WA for crevasse rescue school this Summer...

I'm heading to WA for crevasse rescue school this Summer and need a pulley. I don't fully understand the concept of "prusik minding," but it seems that the pulleys with this feature all have rectangular plates. Does that make this a better choice than the Petzl Rescue Pulley for crevasse rescue?

Prusik minding is nice other wise someone has to stand there and keep the prusik from jaming the pulley. you will learn more this summer but i like prusik minding pulleys to free one more person up.
