I think it comes down to how much you train on MA. If you use it enough you could totally save someones life in a pin scenario.

All I carry for the most part is a throw bag and a carabiner. If you know how to use a lasso and a vector pull that should be all you need.

Agreed.... we broke two systems on a raft on marsh creek and in the end all it took was a vector pull with a cheesy throw rope with the group pulling and it popped right off...two hours later a change of direction in the middle was all it needed... I'm a firm believer in the vector !!!! good call.....

Wasn't taught to use a girth hitch.

Thanks for the info about the W3P2!
