There was a gizmo that someone came up with for walking up a rope using a foot loop, elastic cord and a chest ascender on the gizmo and a foot ascsender on one shoe - I thought it was called a RapidClimber, there were Youtube videos which I can't find now. There were discussions in here about people making their own.

Anyone?

-Edit-

Okay, I found it - the HAAS.
 
There is also the SAKA by Richard Mumford that you can buy at Wespur. Another option is a variation on the saka that I came up with that has the bungee running around your harness instead of up your leg. I called it Brocky's Belly Bound Bi Bungee Bringerupper. image.jpg
 
Thanks Sgriff, it works very good. The tubes, bungee and pulley stay on the harness out of the way and the rest stores away easily when not in use.
