Finally swapped from my old two-block system to a single line whip for close quarters lifts

The difference in control was huge, especially on a tight site in Tacoma last week. I could swing a 5-ton load within inches of a wall without any of that old jerkiness. Anyone else made a switch like that and found it smoother?

Reminds me of switching from a complex knot to a simple bowline for rigging. Sometimes less hardware just moves better.

I mean, it's funny how often the simple fix is the right one. You see it with tools, you see it with software, just cutting out the extra steps. Makes you wonder what else we're overcomplicating.
