Go to pulley

[Fairfield]

If you could only choose one type of pulley to climb and rig with what would you go with? Not talking about blocks. I am going with Omnis

That's no fair, Jim!

Only one??? There's no way I could narrow it down that far. I suppose I would take all DMMs - 2 pintos and a hitchclimber. Three is the lowest allowable number of pulleys in any given gear bag, I think it's a rule somewhere, look it up.

 

[treebing]

Ill go with the omni too

 

[oceans]

If a pulley is already integrated into my climbing device, does that count?

Pinto Rig

 

[treebing]

I never could figure out how to utilize the rig

 

[Motak Abon]

Pinto Rig!

 

[CutHighnLetFly]

red pinto with bushing. most of what as far as rigging goes we do can be done on 1/2" line

 

[Adkpk]

I like the pinto but don't go for it much although it looks useful. I use an omni almost every climb.

 

[CutHighnLetFly]

yeah i gotta be honest ive never used the omni block so i feel like i cant say i wouldnt like it more. I just like how with some pieces of cordage lying around i can come up with all times of set ups for different applications. much like what you see off of Oldfart's U-Saver or Bonners U-Rig things, just instead of one does it all, i just mix and match for what i need. most of the time it just turns into pulley on a sling though.

My CMI pulley comes out more than any other!

 

[KevinS]

I run the small 1/2" steel cmi pulley with a becket the most.
But on that note I've been running x-rings for a lot more than pulleis lately.

We have both the pinto rig and now just got the omni. They are both so useful but I do like the mid line attachment of the omni. Either way they both fit in your pocket and are perfect for light duty stuff!

I forgot about my CMI, I take it so much for granted. I would feel naked without them. My omni is more cherished but my cmi pulleys are so much a part of my life I don't even think about them. I would agree that they are my go to. My rig is beautiful but doesn't get used much.

I find the Omni Block very useful for drift rigging, though for most cases, a carabiner works well in leu. I used to have a Pinto on my lanyard, but now it's just a brass swivel snap. My go-to for primary rigging points was an ISC Flame, but I can often get away with rings for that. I can use the Pinto Rig as a nice redirect, but the Omni Block is midline attachable, as well, and can be girthed more easily than a Pinto Rig, so I'd go full circle back to the Omni Block as my go-to. The Rope Runner has an integrated pulley, so if that technically doesn't count, RE Omni Block 2.0
