Way much sitback on the hitch in that first photo. I dont have a picture but I use a super short hitch, sometimes spliced which makes the legs stiffer so a VT with minimal sitback got a 72/3cm spliced AP with a 3/3vt and a 70cm HRC with a 3/2vt. All off one petzl willam biner with a fixed isc or hitchclimber. Little throwline loop on the bottom of the wrench tether to tend/clip into the HC. Or just use the Uni :D

 

Edit: the new setup looks mega. I destroyed OP with a knut pretty quick though. Burns up at the half hitch in the knut.

Got some gear there lad! Which do you prefer out of the three? Not had a go on the uni yet. You have a barrel component? Yh im switching it around, making sure im trying to spread the wear rather than let one spot get bad. Also switching to and from vt. It depends on the weather really to what hitch I go for.. also vt on hh?

Does anyone still use just a plain old loop wrapped round your rope a couple of times method or am I the only one?? I look at your fancy thingmabobs with different length whatdyoucallems and I'm lost in the nicest possible way!!??:thumbup:

 

Haha, is you prussik loop just on a double line system? You should have a play with some gear, its defo hard to get used to at first but change is good! Watch some videos on all the different systems out there to get an idea. :thumbup1:
