Look who's talkin'.:) The guy who used to contract climb for me used a setup like Brian's and he would just pull himself up and let the slack gather and then hang on with one hand while he pulled the slack through the hitch with the other hand.
I tried that yesterday experimenting in my old walnut tree out back and the pulley wouldn't slide the Blakes up the rope. Maybe I have the wrong kind of pulley. Sometimes it would even pull the prussik that is attaching the pulley to the rope down the rope.
