Congratulations on a great marketable kit. I too assembled mine prior to, following all your recommendations.
@@Trevor-ps2oe thx... the kit simply helps folks get exactly what they need instead of buying the individual components. But I think this one video will help them build it faster.
Excellent video , I purchased the components separately prior to your kit being available. Looking forward to the assembly with this video for guidance.
@HA-bh1wh yes, this video is a little long but it should basically summarize the contents of Four other ones.
Hey, you got a mention on the Howknot2 channel about the Garda hitch.
I saw that. They didn't test my Garda Hitch variation though and definitely didn't check the website for information that could have helped them. Also, the strength of a Garda isn't nearly as important as its reliability considering we use it as a foot loop. And they didn't test reliability at all. For example, we might step on our foot Loop a thousand times and THEN it slips for the first time... due to a slight movement in the carabiners or the gates touching just the right way. I went through that entire process before I released my version.

Great video! That tree in the background is gorgeous! What kind is it? Also, I've sent you three emails and haven't heard back. You dodging me, friend? =-P
@Knot-orious I did email you 2 days ago.
That tree is a dawn redwood. I planted it in 1998 when it was one foot tall.
@@jrbtc That's incredible! Good for you for planting new trees! Never receieved your email! Check your drafts or resend, please!
@@Knot-orious just resent my last message via email.
can i do the footloop with just Accessory Cord, which is, of course, rated for climbing instead of using webbing? I did it and it funzt . maybe a little bulky, but it worked but maybe your experiance see a point there i do not see.
@Simon-80 I have tried it but dont recommend it... there are a couple of disadvantages in using cord. 1. It's more likely to slip by allowing the carabiners to shift simply because it doesn't hold them together across a wide surface area. This could be mitigated by using a different knot than my bull hitch, but it's nothing I can explain in a comment. 2. It's not comfortable on our feet and can literally cut into the soles of a rubber boot. Consider the case where I am standing on it while hitch climbing with one foot for a minute.
However, on the side of advantages, we can make it much more easily adjustable and would not need the transformation Loop.
@@jrbtc Thanks John! I just ordered me climbing webbing to make it like you has shown it. But I'll just experiment a bit with cord and see what happens. And i take another hitch, because the carabiner moved. I hope i get used to webbing. Because normally i dont like webbing at all. I prefer handling with cord. The advantages will be decisive here.
Building this up today. Hoping to get all components together to demo at the last 3D shoot of our local club (for the season) this weekend. Cheers!
