    U-Saver

    So as it turns out I cant use anything handspliced by me at work :( what a bummer. I did however procure a Big Green purchased Buckingham ring&ring and have been using it with much success! So far I have been able to set it from the ground and retrieve it with no problems. The spliced rig...

    I love how this thread turned into a girth hitch discussion, and the girth hitch thread went straight to friction savers!

    U-Saver

    I have always been a bit O.C.G.D. Always looking for something new and better... I would hate to think I hadnt tried everything :) Besides it was fun to learn the splice and I wanted one of the rig pulley anyways.

    I have practiced doing the throwline controlled removal with my remote rigging thing... It worked well. Always a voice of reason.

    U-Saver

    No mostly my experience with them has been, I want to try this, this keeps getting stuck > back to not using one. I have always used tied versions though and the knots just didnt work well. Hopefully since I put nice splices in this will work out okay.

    U-Saver

    I had two extra aluminum rings from my Cougar. I spliced 2 slings with a ring and a tight eye for a biner. I am going to give one to my buddy Billy and keep one myself. I wondered about that myself.. usually I get the rope so twisted that it probly wont matter though :)

    U-Saver

    So Tom Hoffman, Oldfart @ the Buzz, made this thing a while ago called the U-Saver. Its basically a Teufelberger Pulley Saver (TPS) with a steel ring in place of the rope loop at the end. WesSpur released a very similar product, the WesSPur Saver (WSS), ART's Rope Guide (ARG) is really the...
