Btw, I am personally back on a Ring-Ring Saver (or kind of a Thimble Saver) for the last 1,5 years know, and love it.
The RE pulley mentioned above is way to big for every day use, in terms of retrieval.
Yes, thats what I think as well.
I wish there was a Pinto or even better an ART Cocoon Pulley with a one way sheave (thats what Rock Exotica calls it on their unfortunately not longer manufactured Omni Block 2" with it), I even contacted ART with this idea some time ago but with no reply.
Maybe...
Paul, you'll find such a rope in every manufacturers assortment who does ropes for yacht racing. I not totally sure, but there might be even a 14mm Ocean Polyester as you wished, did you search for it or ask?
Even so such manufacturers offer just covers or cores. You choose exactly what you...
Oh, I meant to not comment on the fact we made it to have the same weekend for the comps, though I communicated our date in autumn already...
But thats really off topic know!
Ouch, so the Passo 2 fails also, thanks!

The smallest diameter...
The acronyms are one thing, the meaning of them another one.
Writing out the terms will not clear the confusion about the meanings.
Doubled Rope is a confusing and somehow misleading term, thats what the other "acronyms" thread is about. DdRT is a fomr of SRT, and thats not just a problem of the...
Do you really mind for that 18 bucks so much?
Sorry for not answering your question.
I would take almost any Polyamid or Polyester rope that fits by the way, it doesnt have to be Dyneema.
@ Waldo: No, not really. And even if the stitching rips the screw link would be still inside the webbing.
@ Moss: Shipping a harness from Europe to the US would be a little to much for this mod I think...
Thanks! Luckily I have comfortable loops on my sequoia already, the originals are really...
