I like the cores with two connection either end. I want one that is the best its simple when i ask for any gear at the shop whats the best im only interested it top gear my lifes worth it.

 

I know were all the same the best the money you have can buy.

 

So common guys whats the best safest easy to use nice grab secure

I have a yale 3m wire core flipline with an ISC micro-grab on it. It's bloomin' marvellous - the snaphook is super easy to quickly attach and the micro-grab works fine on it too.

i use one from treeworker with a art swivel positioner have used most others and this seems best but not the cheapest way of doing things

[Paul Barton]

I think mine was about £45 for the line with snap hook and another £20 for the micro-grab.

If you're not often in conifers or other pitchy/sappy trees I think a friction hitch with tender makes the best lanyard adjustment there is. Easy one handed adjustment in both directions.

I us ethe skinny red komet one with a snaqphook and an isc micro grab, used to use the thicker blue/white one but the komet is way better.

 

If you're not sure go for a grab over a prussic, grabs are much better at dealing with sap; dismantle a big sitka and a prussik will just stop working. Also a snap is much easier to use than a karibiner although technically its only 2 way locking.
