Climbing, my thoughts

[parkersdad]

I know people are trying the Lone Wolf hand climber tops for climbing. I was wandering if you put 1 strap on tree step on a Lone Wolf strap if you could grab the step and then pull the platform up like a climber? This is what I am going to try. Has anyone else tried this?

Not quite following? You mean as a separate piece? And kind of use it as a mini pull up bar?

Yes, use the hand climber on my feet and then have a strap on step that I can slide up the tree and do a pull-up.

Don't see why that wouldn't work. Will probably be more strenuous though

You wouldn't even need the step though. Just use the tag end of he strap

Why not use your tether. put tether as far above head as possible, sit in saddle, pull up base, stand up and repeat

I am sure your idea would work

I believe this is how most do it. I'm actually going to try it this weekend prepping trees.

This works well with a ropeman but I struggled when I used prusik knot. Might be a better knot to use but is very easy with the ropeman.

Recommend tethering the climbing stand to you. Hanging in the tree with no way down would look so foolish.

I guess a simple length of Paracord will do. That would really suck
