\"CMC_CMI\"<\/a>\"CMC_rescue_8\"<\/a>Here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s another goodie I picked up when Fabio ordered from Rescue Direct<\/em> – CMC Rescue\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Survivor 8 descender. Far smaller and lighter than my CMI Rescue Figure-8, this micro version is designed for personal emergency escape. Forged from aluminum, it is machined to shape and given a mil-spec hard-anodized finish. In conjunction with a lightweight carabiner and a rigger\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s belt, a very unobtrusive escape rig can be put together without a massive weight penalty. The figure-8 and a lightweight carabiner can be easily pocketed or stashed in something like a double handcuff case or exam glove pouch on your rigger\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s belt. I haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t had the opportunity to test it out yet on a descent, but put it on some rope to see how it would function. It is designed for smaller 9mm ropes. I tried running some \u00c2\u00bd\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Army green line through it, and it sort-of fits, but the rope will probably rub in the middle, even under tension when this twisted rope thins down. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not a good idea to run line this big – better keeping it below 11mm. The 7.5mm rope I ran thorough it looked a lot better. It appears that here would be enough room to run that size doubled, or to even pass it knotted.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

About $18 USD<\/p>\n
