    Courant kanopa splice

    I love Courant ropes, but keeping their splice instructions behind a paywall is double-dipping at its worst.

    ISC Nessie

    I'm weird that way, I've climbed my whole career without clipping up either end of my lanyard, I just let both ends dangle. Rarely an issue. If I feel the need to move the tail or hang it up then I do that, but it's not an ideology for me to constantly be thinking about dealing with the lanyard...

    I've never ever tried to manage my lanyard tail, always just let 'er hang. It's fine, no different than the tail of my climb line. Never understood the obsession people have with looping and clipping the lanyard tail up, extra work for what benefit?

    Ultra sling vs deadeye: double the strength?

    Nick, my real question was: is there any strength advantage with an ultra-sling over a deadeye, since the ultra is spliced in the middle of the rope?

    What's the point of side cuts made after face cut?

    Trying out my mini-wrench hook combo

    Yes indeed, I've been on the same setup for a couple years, love it. HitchHiker is perfect for a hook line eh. Started with 30ft line, moved to 60ft later. Only difference is I attach with a crab so I can tie-in and use the line for working once I get over to the new position. I recently seem...

    T542i advice for longer and better using

    That's how chiropractors work, or so I'm told. Once you start going you have to keep going back. That's why I've never gone to one...

    T542i advice for longer and better using

    I took the clutch off mine. Just put a ratchet and socket (forget the size, maybe 5 mm?) on there, and then tap a flat screwdriver on the mark to loosen the clutch, comes right off easy.
