I see this new ZigZag rig as the key that opens the door to more training and assessment of potential of prospective climbers. Get them up in the top on SRT or whatever way but when they get up there they can hook up this system they have brought up pre installed and toss it over a limb and go to work without you wincing at whether or not they have tied in right or will run a suspect hitch.
You have a young kid with no body fat and strength to handle anything and athletic and wants to learn to climb unafraid of heights. I think this may be the answer to training until they want to move to something that may be more sophisticated to them. I am getting one tomorrow and will know more after I try it. Many seem very happy with it.
