STICHT Friction Hitch for Arborists & Tree Climbers by Brocky!

In this episode, we'll examine the STICHT hitch. This is a hitch that was created by my friend Brocky, a fellow member of The Tree House arborist forum, as well as of Tree Buzz forum! It incorporates a ring into the system and Brocky says "the ring, or something like it, is needed to put a slight bend in the rope. If the ring is too small, the twist won’t touch the rope and causes more unneeded friction from the v shape of the sections of cord that enter and exit the twist. If the ring is too large the twist can spread out too much and start to bind up." Search both forums for more information!
