Thanks, I have a couple of comments and I hope you don't take it wrong. Park rangers watching a bunch of YouTube videos looking for possible illegal activity when there are guys out there cutting burls and such and who knows what else. What we need is more respectful, tree loving climbers...

Have you considered a Self Advancing Knee Ascender?

Some testing..........

Well, I mostly avoid "work", but I do hang it on the side of my belt and forget about it. Hanging it with the ascender side up, and leaving the foot loop on your foot, does not leave much hanging actually and it is pretty light weight. The whole thing weighs 10oz with the foot loop, if you...

There are lots of dangers mixing rocks and trees. Probably more things not in common then in common.

80% is a good place to start.

Got ya, I don't see much difference and at times I vary the braids depending on the wear and memory of the cord.

This is another way to do it. I can easily vary the number of wraps depending on how much security I want.

Here are a couple of vids that you may find useful. I find the VT smoothest and least wear on the i2i and the distel most compact.

As climbing styles changed, specifically moving from pure DdRT to SRT and a mixture of both, it made me re-think the use of a pulley saver or minimized friction at the primary support point. This may especially come into play if a climber is setting a pulley saver just to block down a spar or...
