adjustable redirects?

[ficus]

Thanks for the great ideas guys

Pedroski- I like your small base tie anchor rope idea

Mog- the desired fork is too far away to tuck the RW through- I have done the throw and hope it doesn't get caught thing though

Drew- nice one I knew you'd have a splicing solution- similar to loopie idea earlier.

 

 

I've got something working OK- i try for a pic or video soon.

Is that a duck in the back ground? Mwaaaa

On a serious note I can't really see what you have done as I'm watching on phone, could you explain it ?

Nice idea Ficus. Could you whack another ring and a long tether above the hitch to retrieve? You in Brisbane? Got a feeling I might have spoken to you on canopy chatter?!

Albere- thats what crows sound like in Aus

 

Just used an old eye sling (i was going to make a pulley saver with before the RW came along) prussic, ring and biner for my redirect. For the hitch tending to work well the tail must be inside the ring.

It means I don't have to climb next to or thru my srt redirects, just get close enought to throw the sling over. I don't mind climbing back up to them with the RW though.

 

Ben R- you sure could,that would mean an extra leg of rope and I'm trying to keep it simple/ cut down on bulk. Thinking about using some 10mm OP and sm DMM ring just to make it lighter

 

cheers

Hmmm think you would have to magically open the Bineer to retrieve it. or have no stopper knot and that is very dodgy.....

 

baiscally and landyard setup ay, if you did it with a hitch climber setup would be pretty trick. but might add a couple of pounds, but would also add more options. To make it even lighter you could use a Knut hitch and that would self advance and then lock off.

here is a redirect i have been playing around with. It is not installable from distances but it is midline attachable and it is remotely removable in a couple of ways. It is a soft link redirect.

I am not sure I am getting this...? Great to be innovative and everything but how are the 2 methods any different from a sling and a krab?
