HOT SADDLE HUNTING TIP: Turn Your Carabiner Into A Prusik Tender

You don’t need a mechanical ascender or prusik tender for safe one-handed tether/lineman operation. Ditch the gadgets without spending any more $$. This blew my mind when I first saw it!
UPDATE: Due to the comments posted (we're always learning & growing, that's why we watch youtube videos right?!?) I have changed my knots to double fisherman's. The lineman in the video is stock from XOP, so I clearly am not the only one who was running it like this. Plus every other stock rope I've had in the past came from the factory overhand knot in the prusik SO...??? Here's to safer climbing!

Great job. My 2 cents on this, I would tie a double fisherman's knot at the end of the prusik. The fisherman’s knot will handle the stress of a fall better. Otherwise great video.

That was 5 minutes of my life well spent. Going to give that a try. Thank you!!

@Jeremy Byng nice video; good tip, and well produced. Based on how well those prusik loops slid on your main lines, I'ld say that you found an optimal pairing for rope sizes. That said, talking about your safety here, I couldn't really tell how those prusik loops were terminated -> if those were overhand knots to close them off, then that's a clear no-go; those need to be a figure-8, or a double fishermans. The issue with an overhand knot is that they tend to roll, and it looks like you have less than an inch of tail after that knot [ scared the hell out of me, for your sake ]. If I were you, I would address those immediately.

[@joehughes6337]

I wondered how they did this, thanks!

[@shanebetts7004]

I recognize your tether rope from Amazon. I have the same rope. I also use a prusick to tend my tether
