Half term - messin about in the woods...

[prd]

Not quite arb, but a good way to spend a day and I'm sure some of you lot have some good toys.

 

Looking to do some low level super safe climbing, swinging in the woods with my lad, whose 9, and a few of his mates.

 

I'm thinking about a zipwire of some sort (couple of feet off the ground at the most) whats the best rope and way to tension the rope? 10 ton ratchets?

 

I've spotted the 24kn Petzl P21 Tandem pulley on Jones' but any other ideas more than welcome...

if your putting anything around living woody tissue be careful not to damage the bark.

 

those tandem pulleys will be ideal for this!

 

have fun!

xx amout of rope depending on how long you wont it to be It would need to be 13mm to work with the tandem pully they would be best to use on the rope,and either 2 1Ton slings wrap them round the tree the cheap way or get 2 cambium saver and do it that way Have fun and stay safe
