I think MOST tree climbers would benefit from learning this system. Espeically if they climb on a hitch-based moving rope system. It's truly an excellent way to anchor onto a spar! You woun't know if you really need it until you give it a try! Thanks for your comment, brother! =-D
Great innovation on an MRS set up! I own a DMM Revolver, which I regret buying to this day. That's the carabiner with the little pulley at the top of the carabiner. I has never worked well with even 8mm rope, and forget about rope that is >10mm. I wish I had purchased the DMM Revolver Rig. Did you remove the captive bar on yours? I like the becket feature, as well. All in all, it looks like you've created a fairly inexpensive and practical MRS set up. Thanks for all your other contributions to the industry with your innovative friction hitches such as the Ecstasy and Calligraphy hitches, which work exceptionally well on brand new, slick rope.
I can't take full credit for this spar anchor method as I learned it from someone else on UA-cam, but I can't remember where. And I don't know what to search for in order to find it. And I've tried. But I learned this from another innovative climber on UA-cam awhile back. But I'm glad you appreciate my hitch and knot creations! Thank you for your comment! The Revolver Rig is so much better than The Revolver. I removed my captive bar by hand the first day it arrived at my apartment! It unscrews easily.
Scottsdale. In the desert. It's way too hot to make new content right now! All of my cameras overheat and so do I! haha I'm moving to Massachusetts by early July!
Thx for the video, gotta try this (once it cools off outside). Is it No-shave-November?! The trick (as you showed) will be getting the Ring/pulley-carabiner pair to come down to you once you are on the ground? Retrievable = cut the tree down? Thx KT.
If you had someone descend using this method down a 25 foot spar, they could retrieve it using 75 feet of rope with ease and some finesse at the device or hitch-based system being used.
Another tool, awesome. Especially when you cinch it up tight against the tree. Gives me an idea.
Also wishing you well on your move back to MA.
Thanks! I appreciate it! Yes, another awesome tool indeed!
Very interesting! I could need something like that

@Knot-orious I feel that we hit 116 yesterday and it's the same story for me the gopro doesn't like it . Good luck with the move .
@facelesspsycho8252 thank you, my friend! It's more my phone that heats up than anything else! It'll be 113 today! Ugh!

Retrievable means that you can retrieve your system BEFORE cutting the tee.
