HH2 for sale

[canadianclimber]

Hey,

I've got an HH2 for sale. Basically unused. Carabiner and hitch cord NOT included.

Ideally selling to someone in Canada for ease of shipping and payment(etransfer). $140 firm Canadian. I'll pay the shipping

DM for any questions

 

[CurSedVoyce]

I'll take it.

Good, that'll keep me from buying something I don't need :^D

Everybody needs a HH.

 

[lxskllr]

I have the XF. I love that thing. It makes everything work the way I want it to. I debated a long time between that and the HH2, and $140 to see the path not taken is enticing, even though I absolutely don't need it.

 

[flushcut]

No! You absolutely need one!

Everybody needs a HH.

Not when you have an akimbo 😁. Or the Uni for sappy stuff.

 

[flushcut]

You still need one. Besides all tree guys are gear whores anyways. More gear more better.

Since this deal's complete, I'll ask a question. How do you guys handle a hitch based system in pitch? Best thing I can think of is using an F8 as the main descent device, and keeping the hitch slack as an emergency backup.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Work through it. I find a mechanical devise with pitch is worse than a prussic.

 

[Burnham]

Cussing a lot helps, too.

 

[Burnham]

You have to know the right words...the ones that soften pitch are very angry in nature.

[lxskllr]

I can handle that! I do rage pretty well :^D

 

[SeanKroll]

Ya beat me to it.

Sold

 

[flushcut]

You have to know the right words..

And often in combination and conjunction with other swear words to form long run-on sentences of pure vulgarity and rage.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Embrace the suck

 

[Nutball]

Would keeping a small bottle of alcohol to pour on it help? That might make the friction too variable going from sticky to slippery and back.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Personally. I carry wd 40, carb cleaner, brake cleaner, PB Blaster for the metal bits. Blaster works pretty damn well btw.
Extra prussic cord.

I carry a couple extra hitch cords. Lanyard in and change the hitch and/or flip the rope. I use the HH in the double rope on pines and spruces. If you have 2 HH's then install it on the other end of the rope.
