Nice video. In your frog setup your chest harnes was waaay to loose, so you sre losing s lot if efficiency and working harder than you need t. You are losing a food 8" of progress on each sit cycle.
Being in the same position as you, I do like 3,but I dislike having to mount the belaying device while being on top, maybe you have a solution for that?
Nice video! Can you elaborate what the purpose of the lanyard is in technique 1? I am using this technique but without it and I am alway curious at improving things so.. For 2 and 3 I don't like the fact that I would have to mount my belay device while being at height already, I want to be sure it is 'keeping' me up, which is the case when I used it to go up. Maybe I will be working out a way to fix this, I also saw the knee ascenders which compares to the no 3 setup, but it's quit costly if you don't know if it is going to work well. I am dealing with the same issue as @MickeSamurai, quite heavy and not very well balanced (leaning over backwards quit a bit), so eager to find another technique which solves this for me. Never the less, thanks for making this very clear video

The lanyard is an extra protection. If the grigri fails you will be hanging in the ascender. Nice that you liked the video.
