I use sirus 8mm cord at 52" for vt knot on blue tongue I would use the same length if you use a distil knot on your 12.5mm rope

 

That's it , game over ..

I can Recommend 10mm Ocean polyester (tried 8 and a bit fiddly), using a distel.

 

Childs play, as you can see! my 4 year old wanted to climb our tree today, so I went back to a prussic on a spare rope as he nicked my stuff, I forgot how bad a prussic is!

 

As a dad it was an absolutely priceless day.

 

He got the hang of coming down and going up really quickly.

 

I tie my own lengths and keep them as short as possible so that the 'sit down' to tighten the knot is minimal.

I use silverstreak come to like it alot. And I have 2-3wraps 1 braid a twist then another braid. Really fast hitch. And if the cord length I'd right it grips well.
