If you too are always forgetting to put on the leash? then the vortex is made for you ahah .
On a more serious note, the vortex is really useful on big highline projects. It allows you to be more versatile in your crossing options and avoids the obvious stress of having to go back and forth. I often use it when the leash is too short and I can have the option of using my own longer leah, without having to uninstall the whole installation. In short, a leash ring option that's really relevant to my practice.
I've been using it for 7 years for my longline and I can easily stretch a 100m line. The rope can be difficult to handle at first, but in the end it makes a very compact and efficient system. A tip for certain situations: a twisted shackle can be very useful so that the system is not directly in the webbing.
I really like this webbing, I use it for the backup of my main line. The line is sturdy and light, just what I need as a backup.
The first thing when you hold one is "oh gawd" but then when I pulled it to failure in my test machine, i was surprised. The webbing didn't look damaged at all where the Shark was biting and it was so strong the webbing broke in the weblock. I've never seen a grip do that before. They usually slip and leave a rubber skid mark on the webbing. I still think this is better for experienced slackers who are careful because if you don't squeeze and bite the webbing before you pull like the make it clear to do, then you risk scraping it on top of the webbing, of course tearing it up. If you are careful this is game changing. This would have been so helpful on the Sweden WR in Lapporten. We were on the static side and no grips would hold the webbing while we tried to... yes... put the leash ring on we forgot to put on. If you like dyneema webbing, this is something you'll want.

La corde 1.5mm pour faire un line-grip maison,
mais elle est trop mince et coupe les pièces imprimées en 3D. Faut passer en 3mm qui manque malheureusement au catalogue.
C'est une sangle tubulaire, bicolore, donc c'est plus simple de faire le plat.
Le tissage est assez grossier donc c'est facile de tirer des fils (par exemple en mettant en place l'ANTI-SLIP pour banana, je crains qu'elle ne soit fragile.
En comparaison avec Edge (sur 30m), elle est plus difficile à tendre bien qu'avec une élasticité semblables.
Sous le pieds, elle est plus compliqué à gérer, faut dire que Edge est ennuyeuse. Bref, je maîtrise pas encore la bête.
Je comptais m'en servir comme tête de mouflage mais finalement je l'ai testé qu'en poulie simple pour l'instant. Elle ne m'a servi que comme renvoi de cordelette dans un montage mariner-double avec un montage Buckingham (rapport 7:1).
La qualité est conforme à ce qu'on attend du matériel Petzl. La notice donne une compatibilité avec les cordes de diamètre 7-11mm et la RAD-LINE 6 mm (et uniquement elle). Il serait intéressant d'avoir une comparaison entre la drisse K2 et la radline petzl. Je confirme qu'elle mord bien la drisse K2.
I did a beginner’s course with Hugo and was super insecure and a bit scared. Hugo was super sweet and patient and made sure, every one of us felt safe and confident to try everything! In a playful, non demanding and reassuring way.
Also he tought us all the basics from setting up the slackline to ways of (potentially) getting up on the highline without having the ground as support.
Thank you Hugo, I‘m hooked now ;)
Super matériel
Pour avoir essayé ce kit avec la sangle Tender et maintenant avoir acheté ce kit avec la sangle Joker, c’est un vrai régal ce matériel ! La tender est vraiment très souple alors que la joker l’est moins mais a un rebond agréable sur toutes distances.
