Not to derail the thread or anything ... But I HATE those freakin' things.
My climbing gym has had a couple of broken limbs as a result of
people getting lowered too fast with grigri's. I think lawyers like
them because they seem safer to their simple minds. And in the
climbing phase, maybe they ARE safer - but you GOTTA lower the
climber at some point. The only exception tomy condemnation
might be in the case where the belayer is much smaller than the
climber ...
