Would be very dangerous carving with a 200t. Use a 170 or 180 with a carving bar/kit if your just starting out:)

Forgot to ask, whats the best 10mm prusik cord to use with 13mm rope?
-
Great. Yeah the yale rope looks like it could be the one, spliced eye it is! Thanks for your help.
-
Forgive me if this sounds dumb (as im only doing my cs38 in 2 weeks) Im looking at buying my first real climbing rope and would like to know whats best go for, a spliced eye rope or stick to tying a bowline to clip to the harness? Also is Marlow Gecko rope any good? Thanks for any help.

Hi all, I will be doing my cs38/39 very soon at Myerscough College. Does anyone know what knots are to be demonstrated on assessment? Is it just bowline, prusik, figure eight? Also in the details of cs38 it says you MUST be able to identify Oak, Beech, Ash, Birch, Sycamore, Willow, Lime, Horse Chestnut, Poplar and others... Im learning to ID more & more, and have my head in my collins tree guide but if i give a wrong Tree ID on ass essment could i fluff the test? Thanks for any replys:001_smile:

Yeah i have one too, great for back up but the plastic that the chain break is made of flexes to much so on/off is not 100%
-
Yep i would say kwik chip as it looks just like the one a sold about 4 years back:blushing:
