    New device from ISC

    Sticht Hitch

    the big ring on the figure 8 is captured below the wraps on a distel hitch. not midline attachable. tends smoothly. (the snap biner is for demonstration only). @Brocky probably knows the correct hitch to use instead of the distel.

    alternating between SRT and DdRT

    you are correct. thanks for mentioning that. It's a good study but with limitations even mentioned in the report. It is debatable what favors longevity. Tree work is unique from other disciplines. Every tree is different. Some senior climbers I admire make a good case for DdRT and legit...
