Prussik pulley/Hitch tender

[tinman44]

i have a pulley just below my hitch. i've seen it used here and there, only i cant get mine to work? when footlocking it will hold up my carabiner/roller from cinching up. anyone know what i'm talking about or how to remedie this? i think everyone knows what i'm talking about i will post a pic if not.

Try keeping the legs of your hitch short. Another setup is to skip the pulley altogether and use a rope snap.

i like mine bedded right under friction hitch for immediate push up. i found a fair place on DBY(Double Bowline w/Yosemite tie off) to place keychain carabiner; make DBY to proper size to place keychain carabiner/tender right where desired.

Even if i extend the bridge between saddle D's and real safety carabiner with lifeline and hitch attached, so i can get longer pulls, stay under hitch; get my massive body weight on it more to load into 2:1 machine to lift self, with own weight leveraged back on self.

Or, something like that!
