    Why don't yall 2TC?

    Try the Maverick hitch...and try stiffening your tether (several pages back). There's also a good length formula f[r how far away your hitch should be from your cinch point. Using a very short bridge, standing feet against the base of the tree or pole, reach up without straining and set your...

    Standard, small, micro?

    That seems like alot of weight up front? What poundage and speed are you getting and is it just for short shots?

    Why don't yall 2TC?

    Do you find that it thuds or scrapes the tree as you move it up? That's the main reason I stopped using my stiff cf foot loop plate.

    Why don't yall 2TC?

    Yes, he made those. You just can't lift your legs as high in one step as a single foot. Its also harder to adjust your foot tether around the tree as you advance because you need 1 hand to push your body away from the tree as you lift both legs.

    Jokes and Memes - NO POLITICS

    Yep. On a related note to Just_hangin.... My teacher in A&P school when we started the aircraft climate control systems class started out by saying "Who knows what a 'Scat tube' and 'skeet tube' is? Everyone immediately looked those terms up on google images on their phones and regretted it...

    Why don't yall 2TC?

    Yeah, hitches really go well with 2TC. With all the movement of the 2 tethers and potential for clanking metal parts together I've gone metal free except my main bridge to hitch attachment carabiner. No more carefulness to not make clanking noise. Then just use the Figure 8 to rappel....or a...

    Why don't yall 2TC?

    Those are both foot loops. I have a leg loop with the elastic on it.....if you want one. Edit: I was late to reply i see....however I've been using the old style "thigh" loop with elastic as a footloop since I started 2TC and it's still going strong and I actually prefer it to the new style...

    2tc vs one sticking

    In our application of rappelling, since it's such a short distance, I personally feel that the only real danger in a rappel is when you rappel on a single device(ex madrock or Fig8) WITHOUT a backup hitch that will truly give you a hands free stop and hold. With one, there is absolutely no...
