Oh yes, you're right. I forgot he had his and was climbing DdRT on it.

 

Sorry Pete:blushing:

 

Where are you now? Still DdRT or SRTWP climbing?

[High Scale]

Both but mostly the latter.

Had a great day with my Hitch Hiker today.

I made a little loop of 6mm cord for the chest harness to clip to.

 

It works really......... badly!

 

The problem is that both the chest biner and loop are horizontal so the biner twists the loop when I clip it.

This in turn causes one side of the loop to move down the spine of the biner and rotate it. If I then sit down, the biner is cross loaded.

Also, because it's all twisted, the HH won't advance up the rope.

 

The loop that I lovingly created is now in the damn bin.

 

Any suggestions?

I, also, would like to see a picture of your idea. It is almost impossible for me to get a new piece of kit and not start fiddling around with ways to make it better. I tried lots of different things with the HH. Some things worked well, some did not, but I think it is telling that the way I like it best and the way I use it, is the way it came. Plain and simple, it is a great tool.

 

Glad you're enjoying it, Ian.
