    What am I missing here?

    i spliced this rope once and if i remember right it was tight but doable.

    i do like a steel carabiner for advancing, too. also great for smacking myself in the face :)

    alternating between SRT and DdRT

    i used to carry a throwball around for that but now i just tie a hangman’s knot with no bight… the joining of lines is a good one, also for switching out rigging lines. might be smart to have a dedicated piece of throwline for that, mine get shorter and shorter ;)

    The latest Matt Cornell harness

    roperunner pro, openable links… are you sure you don‘t want a protos aswell ;) what do you like about the setup? streamlined and quick change of the bridge or is the bridge „behaving“ in a way?

    maybe it was the speedclimb event where you „free“ climb a tree while bering belayed by another person.

    What can I or we do to get a better file on our chains?

    how is that possible? when you look at a round filled chain it‘s pretty obvious that the top is hollow ground like an edge that you would grind on a tormek or other wheel-grinders.

    if you lower with one carabiner as a terminal rigging point or 3, what will be gentler on the rope? the rope is maybe flexing twice as much but only a quarter turn. i agree, i‘d rather have two slings with one ring each than one sling with two rings..

    Show off them splices

    it spreads the bend over more fibres and is therefore more better, stronger, gentler for the rope.

    nice, the knot is for decoration or does it serve another purpose?

    i just cut mine off completely, never had a problem with the wrench engaging but might’ve been lucky.

    In the latest episode of “Idiots with chainsaws”

    where no directional control is required and where the lean is too severe for bore-cutting because the holding-strap will rip. i use the coos-bay alot in combination with rigging for instance when swinging around large braches that are mid or tip-tied.
