I would like to incorporate some of these ideas when climbing trees.

Thanks for the awesome walkthrough! I love the canyoning vids you guys are putting out recently! Quick question if I may - Isn't the EMO a little bulky? Seems like there's going to be a high chance of it getting stuck in something while pulling the rope down. Would you recommend a different system for when it looks like it might get stuck on the way down? Thanks guys!

I can't speak for Brent, but I would say it's a judgement call. In many cases, you would be fine and it would be quicker than re-rigging. Also keep in mind that he is often doing rappels into moving water so you want the rope to be just long enough to reach to avoid entanglement. (The other side of the rope would likely be in a bag to contain it.) If one isn't worried about water, but there's a concern about the EMO getting stuck, then a double rope system could be set up. (What canyoneers call "toss and go".) I like to use an ATC style rappel device when rappelling double as it doesn't twist the ropes.

I've watched a heap of your videos and learned a lot. Thanks very much! Your alpine quickdraws always catch my attention. What's with the twists?

So it functions as a biner block, but also allows lowering. I wonder what are the rigging scenerios would be where this would be best practice

This is part of a 10 video course. I guess this is out of context being a public video haha

So last person just removes the draw and descends leaving fig 8 in place? Looks like it could possable be a snag problem on retrieval from below

More or less yes, like a knot block. See this episode it is paired with kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g7-pbN1-1969gqc.html
