Hey Jeff! Yes, I've tried this - as the "slowest" one, as well as three other rappel configurations listed in manual. Not a big difference actually (blocking carabiner just slides away from the "pinching slots") and and it was definitely not enough friction for controlled full body hanging double Rad line rappel. Had to add additional blocking carabiners, as with other "non certified" ATC-s, which is making Scream completely useless.

What is the difference between "Haute Route 10" vs "Haute Route 10 Plus" ?

[ver. Vulcan] Replaced sloppy rivets on 8-years old Vulcans. Worked out perfectly as described. As for the installation procedure itself. The most hard and time consuming operation was old rivets removing: drill through metallic rivet axle, carve and pry it out without damaging soft Grilamid plastic clog. There was some noticable play on the carbon cuff/delrin bushing interface (all four rivets, like small fraction of millimiter gap) but resolved with a touch of thick metal filled epoxy ($25 for the set...

Thanks, Jeff! Got reply from G3. For Zed's second year (2020) run: heel molds was changed a bit as well as the forward pressure compensation springs (stronger now). It is possible to retrofit the new springs into the old (2019) heels, and "it should totally eliminate the float issue". Crampons are the same.

Is there any news for upcoming 19/20 season. Did G3 fix Zed's related issues with weak forward pressure compensation springs and ski crampons flat mode? Regards.
