Just a few RR pics from the past week in Africa. my RR was a total surprise gift for my birthday from TreeStuff, Kevin Bingham and Dak. was blown away!!
-
yes they do totally Jon all the rope manufacturers offer ropes in diff colours with diff names.
-
( the Kernmaster Safari/Explore is by the far the best colour combo )
-
11mm is kernmaster, 11.7mm is blue tongue, 13mm is XTC. but colour does change how a rope feels and behaves
-
who was the guy who made the SLUG? is it the same guy trying to say hes a leading splicer in the UK on treebuzz?
-
Hedera 11mm is Kernmaster bro
-
Get someone to splice you a new one using te old rings

Harrison Rockets 8-10-12 oz range, didn't like the throwpod and use the bullet section of the rope knight for tight crotches. Zing it and hevea throwline, faltheimer cubes only- stein cube was just total rubbish and same with petzl cube. Couldn't imagine doing treework without these essential tools

RR is a pretty damn cool tool, your gunna like it bro
-
Works absolutely fine
-
I honk it's just personal preference between all of them, they all work well.
-
It's simple, works well on a choked line and that's it.
-
You get the benefits of a high anchor point without having to actually ascend to the top
-
Yep that looks absolutely fine to me too.
-
If just cut it off and start again.( it really shouldn't look like that by that stage).
-
Tibloc is a bad idea to use often, it's pretty harsh. Try an 'o rig' set up using a small prussic cord, better than a cam device in my opinion. Google 'o rig' for description and/or vids. Hitch climber pulley is the mutts nuts.
-
Ascend with a hitch and rope wrench and you can work at any point. No need to go to the top and changeover.

Agrimog- a kernmantle splice looks very different to a double braid splice.. And yep, need to see more of the rope but if in doubt, send it back to confirm
