My "ultra shorty-bury" finishes/tails on Ultraslings, one's the Trex boom-sling and the other's my TEC Safebloc sling, my 2-most-used because they're Ultra's! Am preferring these tiny, tight, redundantly lock-stitched like crazy, shorty tails!! The TRex is short but that TEC.... ;D
Keen to gather thoughts on the difference between three different double-whip rigging setups (when used for negative blocking). Or put in another way - "keeping friction up in the tree when negative rigging". All three setups assume a bollard of some sort being used at the base of the standing...
Most of my splicings, and most of my new "heavy duty rigging kit", sadly once I finished getting everything setup I found far less than stellar usage on-job, the guy I do most of my work for only lets me rig when there's targets, never just for efficiency(speedlines)
So when slinging up a porty or a block in the crown SOP is to choke your cow/timber hitch around the eye splice; not below it. I have always understood that choking below the splice would be asking for failure. But with the safebloc that is essentially exactly what you are doing?
Am I missing...
