Left side of my saddle but forward. Right side is for the chain saw . I keep a bunch of stuff on both sides. Biners, rescue 8, i2i prussic, ect.ect.
So far my 193T has been good. But I haven't used it a lot. I got it so I could join beams together with only 1 useable arm to run the saw with. . It worked.
The only time I've had my climbing gear on in a couple years. Petzel Navajo saddle . Hitch Hiker on Samson Static Kern. A 4-12 slope roof usually doesn't require climbing gear. But the roof had major frost on it until about 2:30 pm when the sun got high enough to melt it off. That was the very last day of 2020 that the roof got frost free. It was still wet . and not very warm. So I erred on the side of caution and saddled up.
When the ZZ first came out I was really interested in them. But then they started having trouble with them. They must have worked out the bugs
As far as I know they did work out the bugs. I skipped them because I wanted something midline attachable, but many times I leave the rope runner attached to my climb line, all depends on the setup though. I like those little 192/3, they are very light and not a bad deal for the bucks. The new 194 has even better power, I haven't owned one yet, but I could see it happening someday.
As can be seen from my pics, I'm a bit round . However I started a diet this year and have lost 32 lbs so far. My end goal is to get down to 170 lbs. Which is 111 lbs from where I started loosing. Once I get to 200 lbs I'll start climbing again. When I get to 170 I'll start my tree service work up again. Lord willing !
