This is the PAS I use anytime I'm multi-pitch climbing. It makes it easy to extend your rappel off your harness and is easily adjustable for comfortable stances at rappel stations.

Specifically for descending. I like having an adjustable lanyard for those hanging stances.

A massive improvement over previous lanyard-styles. Excellent for clipping to anchors on rappels, while cleaning and lowering, or any other time you need to attach!
