multiple uses

[DrewB]

Been trying to use individual items for multiple uses whilst climbing for a while and made this a while ago.

Rope guide that is spliced with a large eye on end and a ring on the other, the large eye can be tied as a klemheist for footlocking(clip small crab and pulley to shirt to keep out of the way). Get to anchor point and it can be used a rope guide (ring). Just move the small crab to the large eye for retrieval. Also, as the pulley is already on, you can work/rescue straight of your fl prussic. For srt attach the lge eye to hand ascender and clip the ring to the pulley to use as a footloop. Its not perfect but it works well for now

Very nice!

Thats cool drew.

 

You could also use it to walk a dog or skip with.

 

If I could splice I would make myself a 4m lanyard from velocity with a back splice as a stopper knot, a tight eye for a DMM sentinal, and an end for end splice about 50cm from the first eye. THis would allow me to clip the lanyard back on its self for single line use without having to tie a knot or have a little prussik.

 

It would cost a fortune to get someone to do it and might just be rubbish.

Good inventive stuff. A couple of questions:

1 what are you doing in photo two ?

2 What are you using to retrive the system from the tree when you are one the ground ?

Mid line anchor on srt...i think?

photo 2 is my footloop for my ascender in srt.

I retrieve my rope guide by using the tail of my rope attached above my hitch or throw a throwline into the tree and attach it above my hitch.
