Hitch Hiker thread.


Recommended Posts

I'm on the HH1. Never used the HH2 but by all accounts it's the same but smaller.

I would describe the BDB and Akimbo as company mechanical SRT devices, if that's what you're after.

 

Yeah, that sort of thing. It's interesting to see how the devices develop.

For those who have a HH(2) and struggle with it sometimes 'kinking' and being a pita.

Good video Warren. That's great how the shackle pin removes so easily at 4mins 14sec.

Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, one of the prototypes Paul made had a D shackle. Looked good like in the video but in actual use it was not an improvement. When in an awkward position, like passing the HH through a fork out on a limb it could be a real hand full. With the carabiner it can be done with one hand. Not so with the shackle.
