There’s a book called plant paradox that helped me lose a lot of weight without trying very hard. Premise is simple: just like tigers and bears will evolve bigger claws and Become faster so that they reproduce. Plants will also evolve mild toxins and so they are less likely to be eaten. I switched from brown rice and whole grains to white rice and largely avoided alcohol and wheat. Lost about 30lbs over a year. Ate as much as I wanted. I know everybody is different, but I thought it was worth sharing. Best of luck man!

@@BinoH Ken Palmer showed me the Blake in 1995. I attended some Arbormaster training and did a lot of jamboree stuff, then didn't climb much for years. I'm getting back into it, and adding some new techniques. I'd love to order a Notch Jet Step, but don't want to get into mechanical devices in place of a knot. I still hip thrust a lot, but this system here looks like I can combine some new things. My legs can help me advance, and this will tend my slack. Together, this will help me rope climb, especially when I use a throw bag to set a line, instead of climbing up the backside of the tree's lean. Great vids. We even have the same saddle!

Not mentioned but I feel this technique could also be good for returning from a limb walk. I feel once you get to a safe part in your limb walk, you set this up, that way as your returning you don't have to underhand tend the hitch. Like you mentioned it would require to do hand over hand witch causes the hitch to loosen up and might be a technique for a more advanced climber and not a beginner. Also not mentioned, but maybe is in another video, is using a termination knot could interfere with the hitch capturing the rope if they get close together. I watched and not once in your video does this happen, but it could. Worth e mention I feel. Appreciate your videos Bino.

Bino, first off, thank you very much for the awesome vid. Secondly, could you eloborate a bit more on the part where you said the hand over hand system may cause some friction hitches to run? I’m new to climbing and am interested which hitches/why they would run when doing that versus the hip thrusts. Thank you

@BinoH 3 жыл бұрын

You're welcome. When you body thrust your hitch goes up a short distance and then your body weight rests on it so it locks. Sometimes hitches may run if you go upward as you do hand over hand and rest. There are a lot of different things that can cause that to happen. the length, diameter of your cord , diameter of your rope and the way you tie your hitch. The best thing to do is to practice your hitch in the method low to the ground.

Hey Bino. I've bene using the clove hitch as you say in this video. It's working really good and makes ascending easier. However, when I get to height I have a real hard time with the clove hitch. I try to just open up the carabiner and slide the hitch off so it will fall apart. however the clove gets so tight that it won't move. I have to take off my gloves and spend a long time messing with the knot to get it loose enough to move off the carabiner. Any advice? I'm using arbor-plex rope.

@BinoH 2 жыл бұрын

When I fist started to use this technique I was using the alpine butterfly but there is a chance that the carabiner can side load. That's why I feel like the clove would be better to use.

@paulhunsicker4271 Жыл бұрын

Bino, do you have a video on when to decommission ropes or more specifically the prusik loops or eye to eye prusiks? It always makes me nervous to rely on the prusik cord as my only attachment to my climbing line. Often I'll throw a loop of webbing and attach that above my prusik with an auto block or klemheist as a backup to my prusik cord. That said, we should hope to never be in a situation where the prusik cord fails or your main line breaks. Perhaps I should be anchoring my backup webbing, lanyard, or tether to the tree separately rather than back to the rope?

I was wondering with the system you demonstrate in this video does it matter if the hitch is VT XT or Distel or will any three of those work ?

@BinoH 3 жыл бұрын

I think as long as the knot is tied correct it should work but if you try to do the hand over hand some knots may run on you when you rest. I would be best to use them low before you take it high.

@@BinoH Kool. Thanks Bino. The reason why I asked is because my prusik is little different than the one in your video. I have a 30 inch where the eyes have to be tied and adjusted manually.

Hey Bino, so the rope rubbing against the tree bark when you are hip thrusting doesn't damage the rope?. I always use a friction saver, but it seems like the ability to toss it up and advance it farther like you do in this video could come in handy . Especially if you can't get a good angle to get your friction saver up to the branch you really want to tie in to from the ground. I mainly climb oaks, which the bark isn't anywhere near as smooth as the tree you're climbing here. That's why I'm not sure if going without a friction saver would be a good idea or not.

@BinoH 3 жыл бұрын

No it has not damaged the rope or the tree. This is a Holly Oak (Quercus ilex). You could always work your way up the tree to final tie and then set up your friction saver. It is always nice if you can throw to a high point with a shot bag and set up a friction saver.

Depends on how rough the bark is how often you use it. It normally does not harm the tree but it also depends on how strong the bark is some trees may peel. On thin bark tree using a friction saver would stop the bark from peeling.

@@BinoH about 24 to 28 inches.. i made my own chord with 8mm, 16 strand static.. with fisherman's knots on the ends to connect to the caribiner. The total length looks like yours in the video.. hey, on a different direction, i love using my rescue figure 8 below the hitch climber pulley.. i gives me confidence as a secondary belay device plus gives you the action of a rope wrench.. i know,, it's in a drt system,, but confidence and security are key to manuverability.. your clove hitch set up allows the room fir the figure 8.. and the figure 8 does more than the rope wrench, it also allows you the lock off.. peace of mind,, low tech

@@tyhnbgtyhnbgt It sounds like your using 5 wraps on a 28 inch cord. If I'm using a 24" cord I use four wraps but is it's longer than 24" I will use five.

Are those belt loops meant for suspending your weight? I had no idea, if they are.

Bino: what kind of saddle are you using? I notice that you have a large ring on the bridge of your saddle: what kind of ring is that? Is it ok to clip into the ring with your MRS carabiners? What do you think about placing a swivel on your bridge instead of a large ring?

@BinoH 7 ай бұрын

The saddle in this video is a Buckingham Master 5.0. The large ring comes with the saddle I believe it's a Buckingham ring. Yes you can use carabiners on the ring. Some people use a swivel on their bridge. Hope this was helpful.

Is it allowed to hang on positioning lugs only without main rope? they are only for positioning, not for fall rescue. as manuals I always believed that for MRS we need at least 2 main ropes

@BinoH Ай бұрын

When you say lugs do you mean a lanyard? It depends where you are here in America one life line and a lanyard is proper. In some places they may require two life lines.

@@BinoH sorry. English is not my native language. I mean the rings on the sides of the harness. These rings are for positioning, not fall prevention as from harness manual which I read. only for positions lanyard and requires main safety rope usage during work at height

I don't believe it works very well with this system. It would be better to use the the regular MRS.

@imaphxaznative Жыл бұрын

This MRS multi rope system actually only uses 1 rope & one lanyard right? Also those rope gloves look like the mechanics gloves @ harbor freight tools, where can I find them?
