It's been many years since I was very active climbing, but in the past my take was, use the rubber band to secure the bolt biner, it improves the reach for clipping and allows the rope biner mobility to avoid the rope crossing the gate and unclipping and if there is a concern, the rope biner can be flipped (gate opening up) for greater safety, (almost certain protection from the rope crossing the gate and unclipping. With practice, a single finger in the bottom of the rope biner holds it secure for a solid clip. question_18250 Thu, 28 Aug 2008 22:16:52 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/PTZ0226/Petzl-Reverso-3-Belay-and-Rappel-Device.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_18156#question_18156 Petzl Reverso 3 Belay and Rappel Device<br /><br />How does this device compare to the regular petzl reverso? question_18156 Thu, 28 Aug 2008 08:49:33 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/PTZ0143/Petzl-Grigri-Belay-Device.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_17498#question_17498 Petzl Grigri Belay Device<br /><br />I understand a lot of climbers don't like using gri gris for sport and trad.
