Double check on my setup for joining line and Basil anchor

So it is the one from cwestern.com? The weird thing is their pic doesn't show it with double strands. I wonder if they've changed it recently? Samson did that with the Tenex vs Tenex TEC (Twin End Carrier) hollow braid. The latter is double strand.
 
It works well with hitches, ZZ, Uni, HH, RW. Does not play well with RR, it just flattens on the body and keeps creeping. I've used it from light rigging to saddle bridges to basils.
 
Yeah, who could turn down that deal?

Most of the 16 strands I've used wouldn't be called static. I don't think so at least.
16 strand is what all the climbers used to climb on it seems, especially in the days of the Tautline and Blake's hitch. The 24 strands started getting popular when arborists began using more mechanical devices, and I think you're going to be happiest using a 24 strand with the RR. Though I've not been fortunate enough to try one yet :(
