Some friends and I conducted some completely non-rigorous testing abseiling using the Petzl RAD Line (6mm hyperstatic cord) and thought it worth sharing. We only tested a small selection of the possible combinations due to how many there are. But if you want to know how it performs with a Taz Lov3 as we did, I have the answer!
Testing was done with a very short free hanging abseil off a tree. All testers were reasonably strong men topping out at 95kg.
As usual we aren't responsible for anyone silly enough to rely on anything here without testing it yourself, the conclusions could be very different for different body weights, strengths, and cord condition.

I have some videos, not all great quality I'm afraid.

The most interesting conclusion was that our tester thought an italian hitch with 1 strand was very hard to control and would have very quickly resulted in free falling, but Petzl give that 2 stars.
