We mostly do spiking, hardly ever hip thrusting. I could easily pull the running end from above the HC setup to get my self up and pull the slack through. In the video I'm just using a thrust to show how my hitch gives that particular problem.
So I tried the distel hitch and it works great. When pulling myself(hip thrusting motion) it always sets back and locks. BUT the downfall is, it's super tight and not smooth at all to descend. I'm using a 30" 8mm OP e2e on 1/2" NE hi-vee rope. Do you guys think having a 9-10mm e2e would smooth...

Can't go wrong with those Velcro spur pads. I have the Buckingham velcros with steel inserts. Super comfortable. You forgot your stopper knot....Cool pic ;)

I'm currently using this friction hitch. I've youtubed and google searched this. From my understanding it is called the Xt hitch, but I'm pretty sure there was another way of tying it. Can someone confirm if this is the so called "Xt hitch"? Am I tying it the right way? Also by the looks of it...
