Can you clarify your point about "doubling the rate that you'll burn through gear". Why would a low extension multidirectional placement require that you place more pieces afterwards?
That's only if you decide to: a) use the progress capture device to limit the ability of a pull from below to un-foot the leader, and b) you decide that the low KN ratings of those progress capture devices demands that you place another new piece of pro quickly after the pro that has the progress capture (so that a straight leader fall doesn't fall onto the progress capture device). If you make both of those decisions, then in essence you are placing two pieces.
Great summary, just what I was looking for :)
Glad you found it helpful!
Great information!
Appreciate that! 🙏
