Ray, regarding weight on the line, you can hang a heavy throw weight on the line, or your climbing saw. I like the throw weight. With it, and a steel biner, I have the mass needed to advance the rope a good way, and get it to come down to me.
bigger biner in the hole,
and do you know the 'proper' motion? If I recall correctly, its described as flexing at the hip, lifting the knee, and keeping the lower leg somewhat vertical, pointing the toe.
Never used the CT, but seems to have people liking it.
Does it lock open like a petzl hand ascender, or does the CT have the option to open and close the cam with your other foot like the CMI?
