Energy absorber for rock climbing.

Some tree climbing saddles have a top that can turn them into fall arrest of I'm not mistaken. I think one of our new climbers has a Sequoia SRT and petzl top rig with a back mounted D for use as fall arrest.

I don't know that there are a lot of tree saddles that way, but there are certainly several. I know Petzl makes one, I think one version of the Sequoia does it but not all versions of the Sequoia are rated for fall arrest with the top rig.

I think that the use of a Screamer is like an air bag. Hope to hell to never put it to use. If you need it, it's there for you.

The other day my 120' shot wasn't an ideal collar shot. Whole lot of plenty strong enough. I figure it's good to have some shock-limiting if things are SNAFU and there is any falling. To date, no failed PSPs.
