I'll give the ArmorPrus a try when my HRC wears out. Although, the HRC seems to be indestructible so that could be quite a while.

I was about to ask the same question.

Really nicely done pulley mod Dave. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Dave, I'm also curious to see a closeup of your homemade pulley. OldIrish, the pulley is just there to make slack tending smoother. Any fixed plate pulley will do the trick as long as you're clipping into a ring on the bridge.

The Bat, size XS.

I also clip to my chest harness or lanyard-over-shoulder, whichever one I'm using.

I'm not sure if anyone here cares about competition stuff, but just in case: the latest proposed revisions to the ITCC rulebook now include the use of SRTWP devices. I'm not sure if the RW will qualify due to the use of the wording "stand-alone device", but the HH should be good to go. Here's...

PSP=Primary Suspension Point.

You mean you pulled slack through your HH and then used that slack to tie the RBoaB, or you used a bight of rope from below the HH to tie it? The former makes sense, but if it's the latter then I'm confused.

That's a great tip Sean, thanks!

I had a similar issue when I first started using my HH. I think it may have been caused by a very very slight imperfection on the surface that the carabiner rides on, causing it to get hung briefly before engaging properly. I was going to file that surface smooth, but ended up changing ropes...

I've had a similar experience when shoveling roofs, although I wasn't using the HH at the time. Due to the Blake's hitch slipping when packed full of snow I decided to be smart and use a Cinch instead. That worked fine during the middle part of the day because temps were above freezing...

Oh, I see, I thought you were talking about a spliced eye. My mind was still in another thread. :|: If you milk the cover down towards that end it should suck the core back in. You can stitch the ends to prevent this from happening again.

That is NOT common. The core shouldn't be going anywhere. Could you post a picture?

Bermy, sounds like my setup with the HH is pretty much exactly the same as yours. As far as the chest harness goes, if I'm only going to do one major ascent in a tree then I'll just use my LOTS, but if there's going to be a fair bit of up and down the webbing sling chest harness comes out. And...

I have been through many different climbing systems since starting out on a tautline hitch, and of all the transitions I have made the HH has by far been the best. I have been climbing on it exclusively for the last six months and I can just not imagine going back. I love this thing! Many...
