I like to keep my other handle ascender on my left side so I can use it to get back up over the edge of a pit if the edge is an under cut & there is no way to push yourself away from the edge. I just clip it on above the edge then unclip the one used with me foot loops. I then pull myself up the rope until my croll touch the edge of the lip. By then I should be able to clip my ascender attached to my foot loops back on again & d-c the extra ascender.
Does it make since?
