This rig is used in conjunction with 2 regular daisies.
Letting go of the clip in option for the reduction in cinching length is a fair trade.
The fish adj are the longest, Yates come in second, and now we have the allfrifi taking the lead.

What? No hate on this thread yet? Well then I'll start.
Daisies and fifis are for Noobs and South face of The Column first timers. Real wall climbers leave that shite on the ground. Get up in those top steps and quit hangin' on your gear ya Nancies!

How does one top step on vertical or even slightly overhanging terrain without some tether to keep you from falling backwards.?
You must have a killer set of abs.

I'm still waiting for mine. I messaged you a while ago and never heard back. How do i get one? You were trying to figure out payment methods. I can give you the money in person if you ever want to head up to the Tunnels and climb sometime.

Actually those things look killer. Excellent thought and nice execution of the idea. My up thread comment was a joke. I forgot I posted it until I got a text from MH telling me you might not have known I was kidding! Sorry brah!

This thing rocks!!
I just got home from playing around with it at Stoney Point on the aid ladder on the Jesus Wall. While not a challenging aid route it gave me a good opportunity to play with it. I did a couple of aid solo laps with it and really dig it. The buckle is super smooth to operate, smoother than my Yates adjustable daisies. I put a keeper cord on it with a locker to clip in at belays or when resting just in case it slipped off the biner or hanger but I never felt like that was going to happen, it feels very secure and I may have to rethink even using a keeper cord.
This will definitely have me rethinking my aid system and use of daisies, I'd like to hear from others and hear exactly how it's used.
Thanks Skot!!

I used mine on Genesis recently and was very impressed! Being short, I need to be in my top steps a lot. The Allfrifi buckle is smooth as silk, even under tension, allowing me to step up high and still be comfortable.
Loved it!

Haven't gotten one of these slick ones yet (Gonna get an order in soon!) but have been using my own crappy and quickly made adjustable fifi for about a year now. Its def a superior way of doing things up there. Really believe in the system. Thanks for making legit ones Skot!

The Allfrifi ROCKS!
After 18 years, I have cut off my Kong adjustable fifi and permanently replaced it with my Allfrifi. Hows that for design innovation?
Wow!!! That's saying something Pete!!!
The 'design flaws'...
The super short girth hitch loop has been enlarged to allow the threaded buckle to pass through the loop while maintaining the short cinching feature...
I will be experimenting with the angle of the hook in relation to the buckle to eliminate the tendency of wearing the webbing on one side, if needed the hook will be minorly redesigned to eliminate the uneven wearing of the webbing.
The hooks are currently available in both right or left facing hooks.
Place your order now, The current production run is dwindling and the next batch is a few weeks out.

So cool to hear that this thing is seeing some action! So commonly in a sport or a hobby we all think "....If I only had a little thing that....." and we go on and on daydreaming but never make it a reality. Nice work Skot.
Anybody wanna help me with my idea for a spoon/fork that has a camhook and a toilet paper dispenser on it? The "Wall-In-1" is what I'm gonna call it.

No need for a pull cord as the hook is rigid
Let us know!
