<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">(not as good system)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The pipe or stick twist still puts the out of balance load on the floating block below. That over weight load is what deforms and breaks the block from the T-track.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">(good system)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The snub line holds the twist (no stick/pipe), but the load is carried back to the locking rail. Got it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Once I take the rail lock off, I can let the operating line slide out (through) the snub knot by pulling down (gently) on the knot, allowing the twists to rub through each other as the pipe goes out (gaining
weight) and the heavy arbour slowly comes in. That’s how I pictured it using a prussic on a looped rope. Am I still off base?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">As for the snub knot itself: I take it a prussic won’t do. I found Dave Vick’s images on StageSeminars.com for snubbing. I’ll need to look that up elsewhere for some better intermediary images (sorry Dave).
My take is it starts like a Clove, but then works its way DOWN the operating lines, under the tensioned line to the locking rail.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I don’t use loops. You’re referring to a variation on a prusik. All well and good. But I prefer a single piece of rope about 8’ (2.4m). I put a few twists in the operating line and tie the snub knot around
the twisted line. The other end gets a clove hitch around the locking rail. Don’t forget to cinch down the clove with a half hitch.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Remember….The friction created by twisting the 2 sides of the operating line together is what holds the out of balance condition. That’s what’s holding the load. The snub is there to keep the operating line
from untwisting. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Before I start cutting different lengths of rope off the spool to see how much I need to make the loop, any thoughts of how much rope should I start with?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Oh, I had a look today, and the operating line is a black twisted rope (not a smooth “modern” climbing style of rope). Does that make a difference when using a snub knot?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black">While the concerns over a failure in the floor block guide tracks or guide shoes, and even more compelling reason to use a snub knot is focus. Having a lineset
out of balance is a dangerous condition and the flyperson needs to have a clear focus on what’s going on with the lineset. By its very nature, the Uncle Benny (aka line lok, uncle buddy and a host of other names) is difficult to install and even more to remove.
The technicians focus tends to be on trying to keep the uncle benny from swinging up and hitting them in the face. Meanwhile, the lineset is a few hundred pounds out of balance and its operating line wants to move. Fast. If you’re messing with the uncle
benny you may lose the grip on the operating line and then all hell breaks loose.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
