THE TOTEM
The Totem functions like a figure eight, sticht plate and gigi all in one. It will do everything each of these devices will do, plus many things unique to the Totem. Use it to rappel on single or double strands of rope from 7.5mm to 10.5mm. Easy to add friction on the fly. Simple to lock off. Other uses include: rigging releasable eight, joker and stone eight; anchor rigging plate; as a trolley for guided rappels, guided hauls and lowers; and much much more.
