Prussic while abseiling - above or below device? 2-Aug-2012 At 6:19:02 PM pezz
Message
It seams everyone is talking about the prussic beings a full backup if the atc was to fail... i rather look at mine as a aid(or call it a third hand)(rigged below the atc) i use it for hands free holding power when retreving stuck gear, untangling ropes ect ect..

I double check my atc is rigged correctly and my partner visualy conferms it before i set off...

I guess if you wanted it below but off the belay loop you could runt the atc on a short sling to save having the prussic on the leg loop... if your that way inclined
