    climbing on two friction hitches

    Kenny, you are 100% right...I was overwhelmed by all the possibilities that existed to try...reading about VT's and all the variants was mind-blowing.

    climbing on two friction hitches

    OK...Carl told on me and it is true...I did climb on 2 hitches for awhile. I learned on manila with a taut line in the 70's; I didn't know about Blake's or Knuts until mid 90's when I found out treeclimbing existed on the internet...I climbed in a vacuum until that time [I was like a lost...
