Can't find that video using the delta link as a retrieveable redirect. It wasn't Richards video. Anybody remember?

maybe the delta is an oval and you meaning this one?

I tried this out today using several different SRT devices (Rope Runner, RIG, and GriGri). ...

I have not tried it with the RIG, I can imagine with the line up and over the RIG there would be a tremendous friction, maybe pulling the tail up and feeding it or this may be a case where the pulley AND a leather cambium saver would be helpful. Probably the best solution is to go RIG-less.

Runner, revolver carabiner, 10.5 Platinum. Awesome!

Very awesome indeed!
Probably should be a locksafe biner as it is a life support function, different than a typical 3:1 SRT ascent. (but from the angle of the photo I suspect you knew that, lol)

Yep, got a locking revolver too but this was a trial descent, down low.

Platinum is a little small for my own comfort range but I do love it as my harness bridge. Very nice setup Tuebor.

Thanks ML. I was tooling around at the park and the opportunity to try the redirect popped up in front of me. Had to give it a quick try. I like not having to disconnect or to climb through a crotch.

I agree. The RIG and GriGri are just not a good fit for this type of redirect.

Revolution won't fit the holes of my swivel pulley, such a good idea.

Richard have posted a new video on his youtube channel! Must watch - he covers every aspect in my point of view and adds more options to the system! Great job done! Thank you!

Thanks to others too. I think it works well. I'll probably start a new thread to avoid the M part, I really think ON Bight is a good name for it.
