The concept is simple - compact rigging plate and high efficiency pulley in one! Developed with those clever folk at DMM, this is the first hot forged pulley to hit the market and was designed to be at the heart of friction hitch climbing systems (with stitched eye to eye slings), but has many other applications. Taking the place of conventional fairlead pulleys, the Hitch Climber helps organise karabiners, reducing the probability of poor configurations such as cross loading. Doesn't matter if you are ascending or descending, karabiners tend to be kept in the correct alignment. A complete second climbing system (or lanyard) can be added to the spare hole, making it easier to traverse between two anchors. There are even rescue and load hauling functions! Too good to be true? An addition to the generic user instructions called 'The Hitch Climbers' Guide to the Canopy' (see 'Downloads' section) helps show how Hitch Climber really can perform!
