CALLIGRAPHY Friction Hitch: My FAVORITE Hitch Ever (for Arborists, Tree Climbers & Saddle Hunters)

Re-introducing the CALLIGRAPHY friction hitch! This is a hitch that I created, developed and tested over 2 years ago and, currently, it is still my number one choice for climbing trees! In this episode, I will discuss the hitch (it's benefits over other hitches), show a quick climbing demo, and also demonstrate how to tie it so that you can use it yourself with your own climbing systems! I typically use the CALLIGRAPHY hitch with my rope wrench (for SRS/SRT) or on my adjustable lanyard. But I also sometimes use it for MRS/DRT, in a hitch climber setup! If you have ever wondered which friction hitch Knotorious climbs on the most, look no further than this hitch right here! Enjoy!
