I know everyone has their own position on what to use and what is best, so please feel free to comment on what you like and why! Enjoy the video!

I am just getting started with TRS. I chose the same two devices so your video was extra helpful for me. Thanks!

I have used the same devices as you for some time. However, the CAMP has a little friction on it, I think that the Micro-Traxion or RollNLock is better as a first catcher although it will use the rope.

i do TRS and Solo lead with a taz luv 2 and a tibloc as backup. also one of the grip things, the comfortable thing is with the taz luv 2 is that you can ascent and descent with it, so if you get stuck or smth you can just take off the backup and go back down, and its robust and looks stable, which is important for me couse i am a little heavier 🙂

Great vid. I use the same set up with a arborist chest harness to hold my lift up.

I do this method but with two 12mm arborist ropes a croll L and a ascension one device on each rope its works so well for me and having 2 12mm ropes there's really no chance of it getting cut.

Nice video! When you're at the top of the climb, could you not also attach yourself to the anchor to switch to rappelling? Is there a reason you use the ascender instead?

sweet vid !also in Squamish, looking into getting into this

I thinking of getting Camp Goblin so watching all videos on TRS systems. I prefer to lock off gri gri with slip knot below it or add friction in dead rope loop over gri gri in dead rope before removing ascenders, even if it seems locked up - I see you did not hold dead rope or lock it off. Is that what they taught on the course?

What are these suspenders? I've been using a petzl torse, but this looks nice.

Do you use dynamic or static rope? I’ve heard people say they use static for top rope solo since you aren’t really supposed to take big falls anyways
