No-one has mentioned the holy grail of 13mm ropes, the new england hi vee. Brilliant rope, supple when wet, smooth the touch and havent had an issue with milking. The Spiderjack is designed to take 13mm to 11mm, i think it all depends of the suppleness of ones rope. the smoother it runs through the cam the easyier it is to self tend, you have weight with the 13mm that 11.7 ans 12 just dont have. Yale 13mm blaze of any type, xc, xtc there all to stiff. When wet, a complete nightmare

 

Just in my opinion...

 

Hope you find you soon mukka

Well said I found 13mm new England run better on my lj than my 11.7 pi purely because of the weight and less flex made it guide threw better.

Hi All

 

I've got a customer who's got a Spiderjack and using Posion Ivy. It worked fine for about 2 months and is now slipping any ideas.

 

I've copied the user in on this thread so he can read all your useful info.:thumbup:

 

Cheers.:001_smile:
