I like the idea alot, but do you have to keep a hand on the line while descending? Will it lock up if you needed to be hands free to cut something?

It didn't lock up on me when i tried it today. But i had to take it off everytime i ascended, descent was nice and easy. I don't have a revolver so maybe it will be better when using that. Just like your climbing hitch you probably need to fine tune it depending on your size.

I think that's cool Bing.

Looks like a piece of cake to tend the slack, I'm going to give it a try.
