But what do you mean by pulley? You can use a pulley with a blakes. All hitches are friction based.

ok ... friction hitch = e.g. prussic/blakes hitch (just rope no pulley)

 

 

Pulley = e.g. hitch climber ( friction hitch included (VT) )

Always used prussiks, can't get used to anything else.

Don't we owe it to our selves to use the most advanced systems we can afford? To resist the hitch climber etc is a foolish defiance for defiance sake.

Hemp rope on closed system? Now were talking.

I saw an older guy challenging Chris Cooper-abs at the AA show a few years back, " you dont need all that rubbish". The retort from Chris was superb and the old chap went away to rethink his life.
