The loop hangs towards the back, initially i had a quicklink on it which i clipped to the ring on that side. It was nice cause it kept it straight back. As is, I don't find it bothersome, when I am not using the strap it all pretty much hangs straight. I fluffed it out to show it and the rope...

PICTURES I really like this setup! Ill get a video together soon.

Motion Lanyards: To my knowledge first described in The Wild Trees by Richard Preston, and again to my knowledge designed and implemented by Steve Sillet after learning the Blakes Hitch. Could be used with any common friction hitch and slack tending system. Essentially a Large DEDA. Not my...

You make excellent points. I dont do alot of conifers here in ohio. If we do its usually felling anyway. Plus they dont get THAT big.

Another shamless plug at the same old thread in just under 15 minutes!!! Why shoot to 60' and hopscotch to 100'? you can just use the ol Air Cannon easypeazy https://www.masterblasterhome.com/showthread.php?15243-Compressed-Air-Cannon-Throwline-Launcher

AX-Man, Nice post, good system. i like your setup but i wouldnt like having the seperate adjusters. One advantage i see is that if weighting your primary you can adjust your secondary without removing weight from the primary. I dont run into situations where this is super important that often...

Wow butch, if you put any more unnecessary stuff on that rig you might get to weighed down to climb... :lol: il admit my setup is a little more congested but i have to admire the simplicity...

Burnham, I think the way i have it set up you would like it, it is very much like having two lanyards but with one adjuster and less clutter. For that matter you could use 2 pieces of rope in the same adjuster (shunt) but having one rope gives it more flexibility in the case you need one...

I don't know... when i started my boss gave me an old DEDA and had me climbing ALT for small prunes and such. I guess I got used to two lanyards and never changed. Like I said I just never use my climb line dee to Dee. Maybe I should try it..the only downside I see thinking about it is extra...

I use both sides of my lanyard all the time, I prefer a dee to dee connection I guess when I'm on my spikes and never really use my climbing line in that capacity. Ive only ever attached my climb line to my bridge... most of the time on spikes my climb line just hangs on an equipment loop for...

Dave, the beauty is it can be a 4 and a 5 footer , or two 6 footers. Or a 12 foot... or any combination you like. I kinda feel like the shunt could be built up into a cool device. If you smooth out the bottom add a lever to disengage under load like a grigri And a friction spur like a petzl...

Its a pretty burly piece of hardware and the camming action is no different than most other devices. Besides petzls own instructions show it as suitable life support as a self belay device for climbing with a fixed line. Which I realize is not the application I'm using it for bit IMO qualifies...

46 views and no replies? nobody thinks its a good/bad idea? no one does anything different than a DEDA or a micrograb on single lanyard?

Pics!! Lanyard Innovations Does anyone out there have any innovative lanyard/buckstrap setups? I have never been satisfied with the DEDA deal with a prussik and a pulley, the idea of one of the snaps being able to "run" the prussik in the event of being weighted never appealed to me. Always a...
