Non mechanical one sticking

[bpz89]

Does anyone one stick climb with let’s say a JRB or WLR hitch and then rappel with a munter?

I one stick with a happy hands (distel) on a short tether. I still prefer to rappel with my MR but I have done a munter to practice as a back up

Not one sticking but early on I did some 2TC with a 40 foot length of canyon C-IV and a delta link and used a figure 8 with a Distel hitch above it. The rappel out went fine. I just found the delta link sort of fussy about dropping down and one time I assumed I could wiggle the delta link down without a pull-down rope and got in an extra practice climb for my troubles, lol. I just use straight 2TC now since I find the climb down as easy or easier than the climb up.

I one-stick up with one friction hitch or another and rappel down with a Figure Eight.

If I am going up a tree with limbs I use a locking carabiner in place of a delta link until I get to height then remove the biner and tie off with a running jrb hitch. If it is a light pole, I go up with the running jrb. I use a modified happy hands for my friction hitches and I always come down using a munter. I am not advocating anyone use a biner in place of a delta or quick link.

X2 except I rappel on a lifeguard.
Leaves you an out since your rope goes to the ground. Also doubles as a pull up line.

One stick with Canyon IV using a Michoacán with a ATC between it.

I use this same system, works great. When using SRT on a preset tree I take the ATC out and use a chest ascender with a foot loop.

I 2TC up and will rappel down one the WLR + figure eight on a rappel rope. I leave the WLR On my rappel rope.
