I've not used a Tibloc personally, however a friend used one on a relatively new rope and absolutely
shreaded it. what his ascending technique was like - i'm not sure?! however if using a tibloc i'd be
very careful and make sure you weight it slowly ensuring it bites fully and doesn't drag down the sheath.

My preference would be for a good couple of prusiks, a couple of karabiners, and a good working
knowledge of how to use it all!

If wanting to splash out, maybe a Petzl Microcender or Mini-Traxion as a rope grab, and a petzl
osciallante or Ultralegere as a pulley.
