| Eh, that's not really it. Most of the stuff they're using "works" fine. I've ascended a few thousand feet using nothing but prussiks... but it's not very efficient (or as elegant, if you're into that kinda thing). As long as what you're using is safe, that's fine. My point was just that if you do this often, get the actual gear that's meant for it. It is more comfortable, uses less effort, and is far easier than most of the other ad-hoc methods. Heck, my original climbing gear was some 1" webbing tied into a harness, 6 non-locking oval carabiners, and a figure 8 descender. I felt pretty awesome having the figure-8 without having to use interwoven biners for my descender. If you're moving forward with vertical access....move forward with it. Get the gear to match where you're at.
