Special thanks to the commenter who inspired me to make this content in the 103 F degree heat simply so that I could defend my friction hitch and verify/validate my claims regarding its amazing performance!
TL;DR: This episode is my attempt at proving that the Blizzard friction hitch (a hitch that I created and promoted) works extremely well. This video successfully proves my claims about this hitch and demonstrates that a climber can trust their life to it (so long as it is used correctly).
This episode is response to a commenter who told me that he was unable to make the Blizzard friction hitch (a hitch that I created and recently made a video for) with three wraps; which should be more than sufficient due to the two marls below the coil, which each act as one additional wrap each.
I told him I would make a video the very next day showing him that this friction hitch does, indeed, work. And that, even for me, a climber who weighs 230lbs, this friction hitch works beautifully with only three wraps in the coil.
