    I'm excited about this development. I look forward to you climbing on this setup. I am requesting you to show from paracord preset to climbing in a tree for a hunting scenario.

      Let me understand: what method are you requesting me to climb? And in a "hunting scenario" ... there's no camera operator when I am actually hunting. And if I put a camera on a tripod, it's kinda hard to follow. This one is a couple years old. I don't always use a platform. I actually look for trees that give me the opportunity not to use a platform.

    Very cool John! The hitch master strikes again!

      The hitch is unchanged, of course. We are simply applying it differently.

    This guy knows what's up! I'm new to the channel but I've been into hitch tying science for a while. I hunt, climb, arborist by trade and rescue operator.
    Have you tested these hitches? Just to get the general slip and break numbers?

      @christianedwards1823 Testing friction hitch slipping points is a daunting task. There are sooo many variables: rope, cord, diameters, materials, wet/dry, number of wraps, and more. For a friction hitch we want to climb on and have great performance, we might tune it for performance instead of strength. Here's one test of one of my friction hitches:

      @@jrbtc yessir I feel you there. The amount of variables is gnarly. It's always expensive to test a large array of potential scenarios too. Ill watch some more and hrt educated, thanks!

    Can the longhorn agile be 1:1 dimensionally with the main rope ? I’m trying to take up slack ascending a set rope, and hoping it will break for coming down ?

    • @jrbtc

      Your question is hopefully answered here. Are you asking if the hitch can be tied with the same diameter as the rope? It's unlikely you will find a rope that bends tightly enough to make that possible. We generally want a cord that's about 70% of the diameter of the Rope.
