2016 srtwp redirects

Is there a trick to getting the clove on a bight Redee to release? I'm setting it correctly as far as I can see, top loop is the working end. It just gets bound up and won't release.

Riddle me this: If you pull your tail to free the blocked ring, don’t you need to pull both the ends of line on either side of the carabiner (the working end, and the end which goes back to TIP)?

What Benjo said. The side going back to the TIP can't move - it's anchored. You are pulling a bight of your tail through the ring and down to you using the end connected to the Revolver. Once it's unclipped, the bight can be pulled out of the ring using the other side of your tail.
 
Right on, I should’ve clarified more. What I was getting at was what would happen if after redirecting using this method, you went farther out at roughly the same rope angle as is between the RED and TIP. I figured retrieval would be tough given the continued angle. Tried it out yesterday with this situation and found it more difficult but still possible to retrieve.

Did you delete your other post? I don't see it now, but wanted to check the pic.
