Lanyard problem

[John Shutler]

Just tried a Moon Trad chalk bag, clipped with a small crab to the right/rear of my harness, behind the large caritool I high-clip my 200 onto.

 

Seems to work really well, but my lanyard is a scruffy old bit of 13mm Marlow, and is pretty stiff. I'm going to replace that with something 10mm and supple, which I think will be a nice neat set-up.

 

Any recommendations for 10mm line? John, which Beal are you on?

 

I'll post a pic tomorrow.

 

mark, i lied to you....

Not many lie about their size and come up with a smaller number John.

 

I forgive you.

I found 8mm friction cord (can't remember what make it is, nothing fancy though) grips my sirius fine. I've got a Cinch you can try if you want - I never got on with it. my kit bag is like the lanyard graveyard

[Mark Bolam]

Thanks mate, I'll catch up after I get my 10mm.

8mm grips fine, I use a knut but a distel would work as well...

[Mark Bolam]

Thanks. Cinch is neat, but I defo rated hitch/pulley over ropegrab on my 13mm.

[Mark Bolam]

Climbed on it today with chunky 13mm.

 

It is a different thing stuffing it back in the bag, but I didn't lose my temper once.

 

Can't wait for 10mm.

[Mark Bolam]

First impressions - worth spending the extra time stuffing into the chalk bag.

 

Pic as promised.

Looks tidy mate! I used to have mine round the back like that but I got pissed off with it being such a reach. Now have it right on my hip, just behind the D. I don't have a saw hanging next to it to contend with though!
