Tail tricks

[Christrees]

What are your favorite ways to utilize the tail of your rope? Tricks for tail management?
Lately, I have been tying a monkeys fist, and sending my tail over a crotch well overhead, and base anchoring it in the tree. I then switch my system to it, hit my objectives, and come back to the base tie. Reconnect to the other end of the system, take the aerial base tie out, and move on to the next. Very useful for decurrent trees with vertical structure.
I have also used this trick to haul a pulley up for a quick FFC light duty rig point, using a butterfly for a midline choke.

This is something I’ve always been curious about and wanted to try.. I’ve just also been told not to so I have enough rope in the tree to bail out in case of emergency.

But I could if I’m doing a 20-30ft climb/Trimb I guess I could try to them as long as I’m using at least 150ft rope. Sounds fun I’m sure there a lot to learn. Cool tricks
