Our grotto does an award for climbing with knots (really, hitches). No mechanica devices are allowed. So. Keeping in mind we use stiff 11mm, what are your favorite climbing knots? Only one person in recent history has won the award and ive thought it would be fun to try for. Prussiks can be a bear to climb with but there are so manh other options (and systems such as mitchell, etc, are all fine, just as long as no mechanica ascenders). Im thinking a friction hitch in which a carabiner can be incorporated as a handle of sorts would make a nice mitchell, perhaps. I have resources localy to help of course but thought maybe someone there knows a cool hitch we dont usually mention or use. I will need to prussik a 300 meter single pitch at some point for the award. So it needs to be easy enough it doesnt get overly exhausting.
