you can set a friction saver from the ground outlined in tcc they great for long hauls or alot of up and down stuff. buck has excellent fs and they have a prussik fs for sparsCRN Tree said:I hear a lot of people taking about the false crotch system. Whats the best method for using a false crotch for a climbing line?

Erie Buoy said:Is the adjustable FC adjustable from the ground? Or, do you set the friction hitch at what you think will be the correct length before you run it up the throwline into the tree? If it is adjustable from the ground, how do you make that happen?
It looks like you've tied a Blake's Hitch with the small (8mm?) line around the piece of (11mm-12mm?) climbing rope. Since the small line is a loop anyway, is there any reason not to use a Prussik instead of the Blake's Hitch?
Thanks for any insight -- I'm going to see how this works for me since my homemade conduit rope saver didn't work very well.
