    Thanks, it does seem somewhat vague if one is needed when starting to ascend from the ground.

    Is a tree squeeze required by ansi for any part of tree work?

    How would you climb this without ladder and spikes but only rope & climbing gears SRS method

    Briefly grabbing the string just after the bag has reached the target branch, makes it stop and start to wrap around the branch, releasing the string at the right time can bring the ball back at you. Not an SRT method, but gets you up the tree, fairly quickly, without the branch strength worries.

    I found from doing the double braid SPlife that core reduction strand cuts should be matched with taper strand cuts to get a consistent core diameter.

    No, I haven’t spliced that one, have been meaning to get some since it first came out. If no bumps or thin areas, probably as strong, percentage wise. I’ve recently come to the conclusion that the best way to splice this type of rope with Marlow’s method, is to tension the core strands at the...

    Looking for Trango Cinch

    Yes, that seems the most popular device for saddle hunters to hand on the side of trees.

    Looking for Trango Cinch

    The Click Up is more robust and cheaper, mine is the original model, there is a newer version. Knot and Rope Supply carries the older version.

    Looking for Trango Cinch

    They grab just as well and releases a little easier than on single rope.

    Looking for Trango Cinch

    A couple other devices are the Click Up and Edelrid Switch, both tend very easily and release under full body weight.

    Looking for Trango Cinch

    It is the 8 mm Oplux, I like the similar RescTech better for its firmer core. The top cord is Sterlings 5.5mm V-T X, next down is Camp’s 5.5mm Cordino, and the 6mm core from 8mm Bailout on the bottom.

    Looking for Trango Cinch

    Some alternate options rope grabbing, with slack tending. Sticht Hitch using only cord, a pair of half hitches below some wraps, and a dogbone tender.

    ROPE SOLD OUT New Sterling 11mm H3 Tech11, Bluewater 9mm CanyonLine, Edelrid Treecore harness, and Petzl Wirecore Flipline

    All the ropes are new, and a little stiffer than RescTech. The 9.5mm CanyonTech is somewhat unique, Sterling gives it a static break strength, and ratings like dynamic ropes. The 9mm CanyonLine has the typical thicker cover and is more like 10mm. I’m dropping the price for the two to $1.00 a...

    Round stitching question.

    The second end should exit out of the same opening as the first, and both in the intersection of four strands. Tie the two together a little above the rope so the knot can go inside a little to get fully buried.
