Need to get a bag I think.

 

Has anyone else got so p***ed off with their lanyard getting tangled round their feet/saw/testicrystals etc. that they have taken it off and flung it from the tree in a fit of pique?

haha many times which is why i now have a little bag. I also used to love it when i was tryin to move to somewhere in the tree only to find out that my bloody stopper knot is jammed in a stupid little v!!

[Paul Smith]

umm why? the rope is as easy to cut as a soft link

 

Very true but it would be much cheaper to replace the soft link! I am frugal with my money! If the poop hit the fan it would be what ever is quickest

Thats the fella!

 

Re the soft link thing, I find that most times I have eviscerated myself with my O2O and need to head for the Elastoplasts sharpish, the cost of a new lanyard is not uppermost on my mind!

if the poop hit the fan it would be better and easier to cut the potentially 10m length of rope rather than messing around trying to cut 4inches of soft link close to my harrness

Here you go mate

I use a isc micro pulley and a knut hitch, 8m of rope tucked nicely in my sherril ditty bag.

Wire flip line just rope a grab.

nice setup OS, whats the little blue prussik for?

[old snake]

Its so you can put your lanyard round a branch and attatch it to the small prussik so as not to side load the krab.
