The Pirana is best used with a canyoneering harness (horizontal belay loop), so the Pirana lies flat. If you use a rock
climbing harness with a vertical belay loop, it will work better if you extend the Pirana (and change orientation 90
degrees) with a small locking carabiner or a 10mm Aluminum Rapid Link.
The Pirana can be set up left-handed or right-handed. By orienting the device accordingly, you place the fins in the best
position for your personal use. If a particular rappel would be easier left-handed, you can just rappel left-handed
without switching the Pirana around
…
-- you just would not have the full functionality of the fins available.
