What’s your favourite lanyard set up

[Webfoot]

One of the challenges of a double-ended lanyard is that typically it's built on a traditional 4 or 5 wrap prussik. What's good is the prussik holds in both directions. What's bad is that the prussik binds on loading and can be difficult to release one-handed.

What is the solution for a hitch that holds in both directions, but doesn't bind? Mirrored hitches with the attachment in between?

I believe some folks do that, but I find it awkward. I just have two fully separate lanyards at that point.

https://treetools.co.nz/brands/shizll/shizll-easy-balancer-big I've used my own version of this as a balancer and pasted around with it for a lanyard and 2 sperate lanyards is probably easier in the long run.

Mostly though I'd rather use my climb line as a second lanyard if needed and bring a second climb line in the tree

I run two mirror identical lanyards daily, 12' left and right, 24 strand climbline, hitchcord. and micropulley. always tied in and always got nice positioning. works well with spurs or srt.
