Thanks B!
I just re-read this thread, looks like I got the HC this time last year. It only took me a year of fooling around with it to get to the stripped down version:)
New twist on an old theme. I've seen this done with a ropeman, and an extra 'biner.
I just added a slipknot, and ran the spliced end of my rope through my swivel..
definately takes some time to get it dialed in. I've had a few scares myself:) With the tachyon and bee line it works much better than the fly and tenex. I use a distal hitch, which also helpls grab more.
I'd like to see that system you are describing
It works greak for big prunes with lots of up and down and long limbwalks. Its sort of a version of Beddes' "secret weapon" just a little more functional in everyday work IMHO.
Its always there but by girthing it onto the bottom it stays out of the way when I want to move my fh closer to me by hooking up to the upper part of the swivel. Make sense? sometimes hard to explain even with pics..
I like the M hollywood, gonna give it a go tomorrow.
Here's my hitchclimber with the new tachyon and beeline, definately looks better, and more importantly works better:D
