Kong Panic Quickdraw, homemade? Long/stiff dogbone to clip out of reach hangers

Hello! |

Great idea! |

I used to use a "stiffy" draw made out of a regular spirit QuickDraw with clear vinyl tubing over the dogbone. It worked pretty well, but I stopped using it when I realized that it's almost always better to just keep climbing until you can reach the clip easily. |

Just get your taller/stronger climbing partner to hang the draws for you! |
|
when u get to a more comfortable spot after clipping the stiffy ... make sure you put a second opposed draw as well ... |
|
The best one I had was made out of the stiff plastic tubing that bicycle spokes ship in (Mavic uses a plastic tube, DT swiss uses a cardboard box). |

If in a bind, just tape a stick to the spine of both biners. |
