• Important Note on Prusik Hitches: The performance parameters of Prusik Hitches used to belay rescue systems have received only limited investigation through reproducible testing. Several questions remain open such as the effects of wear, age, and other environmental influences. If you decide to rely on a Prusik Hitch-based system, it is your responsibility to determine that the particular combination of Prusik Hitch material (Prusik or accessory cord) and the host rope will work reliably for your systems, level of training, and rescue conditions.
