Thats Amazing. As soon as I saw the pic I thought Hiedelberg.
Many years ago I did lots of treework at the Castle, including stripping all the ivy off the walls on rope and harness. I was working for Martin Vogel at Wolf Baumflege.

Did first tree with yellow DB attached to porty on truck, right pedal power to life, left pedal control and porty to lower 5 long leads. One was butt tied, too, and lowered to the roof on the right with the skylights, and glass roof porch. Just left the bull line in there in case I wanted to try to pull anything over to that spar, but didn't in the end. After lifting toward the block, we tensioned the speedline parellel to the house, uphill, and lowered out long leads.
Plywood covered in saw chips at edge of roof where glass roofed porch is located (~1' from trunk).
Butt, middle and top of one long lead (~40'), tip tied to BMS Belay Spool (would have been nervous with a double loading from a top block and base porty), narrow face cut at crotch and exited the area, lowered the tip, broke the hinge, butt fell, double rope lowering.
After felling a declining maple, I went to limb it, and a bat flopped around and onto my shoe, flicked it off after two minutes and it flew off.
Horse Panic Snap (~$8 at a feed store that carries horse tack) set as self-tending double whip tackle for pulling tension onto the BS using VT for progress capture, all cheap cordage, 12' pole, 80# braided halibut line, open faced Pfleuger reel ($80). Overkill for most, but we've done 150'+ accurately at State Parks to pull hangers or set a line for the Wraptor.
Just saw these posts from a few days ago, yes just bought a few months ago finally got the lift to hawaii it's pretty nice getting it into crazy areas!
I've used a friends one with the same attachment and he uses a small accessory crab or metal connector in-between the grip and the quick release .
do you have issues with it sticking ever?
Careful where you step... Cisterns and wells are all over this one. Could not see this one until we had cleared around it and moved some logs.
Brush piles to be burned in 3-4 different fires.
