In need of a static rope that can be cut to a 75' length for MTCC. It needs to be newer without nicks & abrasions so it can pass inspection. Two specific ropes I've looked for on-line are the Notch Dragon 32strand 7/16" & Inferno 11.8mm 24 strand rope. Willing to consider other ropes as long...
Looking for a used Taz Lov2 preferably around $150 or less. Would like to use it for the ascent event this coming September at the Michigan Tree Climbing Championship.
Thanks for the update. Definitely looking like the Taz is the way to go for the ascent event. I used the rope wrench my first year. Set-up time was a bit slower & I forgot to clip my chest harness in. That was a bitch of a climb up that rope!
I've only seen it used in the ascent event at competitions. I don't know anyone that actually uses it for work. However, I've only been climbing for 2.5 yrs. But I work with a lot of experienced tree climbers.
Yeah, set-up time is part of the comp. That's what I noticed last year with the TazLov2. Nobody could beat that set-up time. Not even the guys with the rope wrench & hitch pre-tied. Would love to find a used one. Any suggestions where to look for used climbing gear?
So I'm new here. I've been climbing for 2 & 1/2 years and will be competing in my 2nd competition the end of September. From everything I've read the Taz Lov2 is the way to go for fastest set-up time on SRS. Just wondering if anyone has used the Gri-Gri for ascent on SRS? I apologize ahead...
