How come you coil it before it gos in the bag? Well if you do, try switching hands every 3rd coil you make. That will help when uncoiled,I hope. Don't you have to feed your rope into the figure 8 when theirs a lot of tail weght. We had to use descenders in the tower world and it was frustrating. Feeding the rope int a descender for the first 200'. I do bow out the fact your not in a rush. It always seems my boss is staring at his watch. He has everything calculated down to the dollar. I have only missed one or two bids in 4 months. Trying to keep up and stay safe. My point being, we descend out of trees that are an average height of 40-60'. Average...When your tied in with a traditional hitch or advanced use it to come down. You gotta take that thing up with you climb around with it, just to use it for 10 sec. on the way down. But different strokes foe different folks.
