You need to get yourself into a shop really Vince to try some gear out I think. Any one of us can give recommendations but while it may well be a good one, you might not like it when you try it.

 

Only going on what I've heard, but if you want to skip 13mm XTC or Gecko type stuff with a split tail then Yale Imori might be a good rope to start on, and buy a few metres of 10mm ocean polyester to tie yourself to experiment with a few hitches, a couple of oval carabiners and a pulley, which could well be a DMM Hitch Climber pulley if you fancy.....

 

Could you sub the climbing work out which you have coming up and concentrate on the grounding and managing the job? If there is any way you can hold on it sounds like we'll have virtually every climbing system and component here on the 20th to see / try with the exception of a hitch hiker and a petrol powered ascender!
