There is no such rope.

Is that a philosophy question?

Lol!

[Rich Rule]

how are people finding it on couger orange?

 

Only ha d a couple of climbs on it and it is pretty sweet John.

 

Been out in Norway for over 3 weeks now on the truffle burger tachyon and it is pretty bouncy but works great.

I have tried the green tachyon & it was too bouncy , is the teufelberger one made differently ?

I was watching a climber today who took delivery of a Bone and was using it for his very first time. He was on Poison Ivy, which is perhaps not the best choice with the Bone, however with the 3/4" bollard installed, he was able to work one tree to take down several dead branches and then transfer to a separate pre-installed rope (PI also) on an adjacent tree, without having to re-ascend from the ground. It worked well for him. He changed his base tied anchor to a retrievable canopy anchor, and also advanced his anchor higher in the tree to minimize bounce.

Lol!

 

 

Is that the better out of the two makes then?

 

Did you get a bdb in the end Al?

[Joe Newton]

I'd be interested in the definitive best Tachyon for the BDB.

 

I use DDRT currently with a view to buying on of these soon (sounds like it's worth the extra when a wrench and tether comes to nearly £150 with VAT.

 

I'm due a new line but it needs to be easily ordered from a main supplier for the boss's ease, which puts Cougar Blue out, and it needs to come with a splice as standard, since I won't use a knot with DDRT.

 

I've been thinking the Teufelberger Tachyon, unless there are any better alternatives?
