Yes. But in the production kit its a Climbing Technology figure 8 (not the Petzl Pirahna in Daves picture) and its a green/black rope that is the rescue line (not the red one in dave pic). Here is a description of the function: "After setting a climbing line and tying it off at the base of...

Here Fiona, (and Stig). This is DMC's pic. essentially this is the system set up for a lower. In practical use you leave the gear in the bag, setting just the butterfly knots and being ready to deploy the kit if needed. Big THANKS to Dave for hi help with this, and willingness to let me take...

I will post back when Luke has the production kit finalized. Of course anyone can assemble a kit like this out of components they already have, but what we put together is small and it works really well.

Thanks! The system was originally shared with me by Dave McNeil (dMc). I have been using it for a while now, I have never had to implement a rescue but the setup is minimal and the bag is light. All of our crew is trained on it and we have done two demonstrations with actual rope cuts, it is an...
