Yale scandere
It has a tightly woven cover that makes it really nice for mechanical interface. Does not have great knotability or hand, which isn't as important since it's usually a stationary or access line. I like it. Just know I like a lot of ropes; I have a lot of ropes and I switch them up a lot.- roxy

Double Handed Ascender in Comp.?
If I'm understanding this correctly, the descent system tied into the double ascenders..I could see a stopper safety knot being required under the doubled ascenders if that then becomes the primary floating TIP. Or would this be the secondary and thus not such an issue?- roxy

Technique for climbing dead tree while TIP in another.
Another thing to consider is to wreck it from the ground without felling. I don't know if you have that kind of situation, but sometimes one can remotely set XRR and remotely tie off the top, or a piece and use force to pull or pull apart. If the tree is so dead that it's a hazard to climb...- roxy

“Rope Only” Canopy Anchor??
I have never been comfortable with the Yosemite on the bowline. I make a long tail and either used a splice or tied a biner on to clip around a basal anchor for my backup to the bowline.- roxy

Check out the buckles on the TM Light before you buy it to make sure they don't drive you nuts. They are not enjoyable to adjust. Petzl harnesses come in several sizes so if you like that, you could get a size smaller and be g2g.- roxy
