New offering from Aero Hunter. Good alternative to ropeman? How does it work?

That’s very similarly to my setup. I like it better than a ropeman on a linesman. You can loosen it under tension/weighted and one hand adjust it when you need to take in slack. The ring puts pressure on the knot and it slides easily. Without the ring the knot doesn’t slide easily to take in slack and it takes two hands.

Did you make yours?

No, I added a shizll to do the same thing. They cost $20.

I was looking in to these shizll rope sliders as well as mirco pulleys. These all work well with arboist as a on handed adjustment without adding metal teeth that are in the ropeman and you can get two for the price of the ropeman as well

This is going to be my set up .. I'm going to make a lanyard that's a 2- and one that's also my tether.

The mirco pulleys version

I mocked one up today just using a ring and some paracord. I was suprised how functional it was. Going to keep playing with some things. I like the ropeman but never fell head over heels with it. I like the adjustment to shorten the belt by grabbing the tag end but never like the other way as much. This has potential and may try a shizzl too.

I saw that video a couple years ago and made a copy of his lanyard for tree work. It is nice having one lanyard that can act as two for passing limbs. I really like the simplicity of the shizzl and a knot.

I like that shizll a lot and now really want a few. How noisy are they?

Not noisy. You aren’t moving fast. A little electric tape stops metal on metal of the shizzl on the carabiner.

I looked all over New tribe and couldn't find this little guy anywhere. Can you post a link?

Did the same. Works pretty well, but probably be better if the ring was smaller so it’s harder for it slide over the knot.
