opinions on SRT

[dcitanner]

does anyone have opinions on the SRT (Single Rope Technique)?

I use it to acsend large trees with a floating anchor. SRT is a good technique but does have its limitations.

Please, what do you use as a floating anchor. Thanks.

Dan,

It's rare that I don't use SRT to access the tree. When I work with our crews I use DdRT system. When I climb outside of work I use SRT almost exclusively.

True, there are some limitations w/SRT. On the other hand there are some shortcomings of a traditional system that SRT solves. I think that in time SRT will be accepted as normal instead of being held as a marginal technique for arbos.

Tell us how you use SRT.
