  • The Agile Hitch (or Agile Friction Hitch) was recently introduced in the following video: • Introducing the Agile ...
    This video is a focuses on tying the hitch, specifically for climbing applications. The Agile Hitch is an alternative for the Prusik, Klemheist, Autoblock and other friction hitches, but unique in allowing the incorporation of a carabiner as a handle, which allows the hitch to be used in a fashion similar to a mechanical hand ascender. The Agile Hitch could be considered a variation of the Klemheist. JRB uses the hitch in DSRT climbing, but does not rate it as a top choice for SRT, given the advantages of the Longhorn Agile Hitch and JRB Ascender Hitch, at the cost of additional effort to construct them.

    thanks for going back over the Agile Hitch in detail, have been playing with it, seems to jam up on me in rappel, have tried 3,4, and 5 wraps, have used it as a back up above the jrb 5-2-3, and solo on the double stationary jrb climb, and SRT pole set cliimb, will have to try the overhand bend, the hunter’s bend has served me very well however as that allows me to adjust the loop length after tying.

    Hay JR, this is awesome, this simpleton understands this one can't wait to practice, great job, I'm all excited now😁👊

    I had to add an additional bottom wrap on my longhorn agile hitch. Using 6mm trc and 8mm truefl as a main line. It slipped immediately when loaded with the 2 bottom wraps

    It is your creation? Looks great Jhon; I trust in overhand in my prusik cords too, so it's strong enough and easy to untie

  • @wm6117

    On SRT, mine jams... I use a pretty stiff 9.5mm Canyon rope with Technora Sheath, tied the Agile hitch with nice 7mm Sterling Accessory Cord... Tied it several different times, with and without carabiners. Using it above a MadRock Safeguard. The Agile Hitch jams going up after loading first with climbing footsling, then bodyweight...

    Great recap. I might have missed it but what is application or pros/cons to the longhorn agile vs the agile with either overhand or hunters bend? I think I heard the profile of the overhand is the most compact - better for fishing through crotches?

  • @verticalfeel

    Hi John, in terms of blocking strong, is it the agile similar to a hedden knot , or less? Thank you man 👍👍
