Re: Ddrt SRT hybrid system
The deal is you basically have two friction hitches on the same rope allowing you to tend either knot. You can anchor one side too a point in the tree and SRT at any point you would like.The last picture shows a predetermined amount of rope ready for the option of doing work on the back side of the tree without a major rope overhaul. One of the pics show a biner used in an anchor for SRT, don't set it up like that i was just in a rush to take pics before dark i would choke the limb or spar with a knot.

This is like what the french pine takedown video had. It has the ability to descent/ ascend on both at the same time, with a stationary rope. The guy demo'd the ability by spiralling on the tree on descent, tending both hitches together.

Are you talking about this, Sean? This is what I thought of when I saw that setup. Very interesting...

I remember seeing the dual hitch setup at the ITCC in Salt Lake City in '97. My mind wasn't as open to new things then as it is now.
