Only done a couple of short-descent SRT trips but I'm starting to dislike having to keep the handle held in on the Stop - it makes my hand ache! I've seen other people's worn Stop's creep on a rope making the handle less useful and even though I was glad of the handle when I very first started learning I'm now less keen on it. I don't want to spring for another descender unless I have to and the handle is always there if I want to use it again.
Does anybody use the locking-hole on the Stop (to turn it into a Simple) regularly? If so, does a krab in the hole get in the way of threading the rope? What sort of krab do you use?
