climbing set ups

[Nick Waring]

I could be wrong but that knot sure looks like a Swabish prussic Although Ive probably spelt it wrong

 

 

This is a distel.

Its a modified prussik or Swabish, if one of the legs came out the opposite side it would be a Distel.

I should learn to type faster!

This is my usual set up now, hitch climber with destil, cambuim saver with pully and sling for quick ascent.

 

How are you getting on with the hitch climber set up?

[Samuel]

forgot to mention what system i climb on

 

I use a lock jack on my main climbing line,and use valdataine knot along with a pulley on my lanyard.

It's Awsome mate, no more body thrusting or overheating of knot.

Call me old fashion too

too old to change now & happy with what I got, although it isnt used much these days:thumbup1:

 

sorry should clarify, i AM using a VT BUT only on the bigger stuff, when using the tachyon 45m for my two short lines i use good old fashion prussik

This is a distel.

 

My bad! Works well though.

[Samuel]

thats good sam, when i used it i found it so much better than a prussik:thumbup:

Just looking at my old threads that I have started and realised how much I have moved on . I now climb SRT nearly every tree at least medium to large size trees .
