How to Choose a Lanyard for Tree Climbing - TreeStuff.com 

GOOD JOB! I love the double end you can move around faster, safer!

When you discuss mechanical flipline adjustment, I have to say the the Akimbo is far and away, the best option for me, and offers the most options of anything you could put together. Great video!!!

I really like the Buckingham "Buck Grab" adjuster. I never have an issue with not being able to let slack out under load. I just stand up a bit and take my weight off of it. I never look at the thing and the orientation of the attachment point on there keeps it from flipping around. I'd like to try that first rope you had there.

Very informative, thanks for cutting right to the chase 👍

Just got a grillion from these guys and its amazing. Love these videos the rigging demos are great.

Great vid 👍🏼 I recently have been using ocean hitch cord with the Knut hitch and a hitch climber eccentric pulley. Takes up slack fast and grabs reliably. Definitely think using a bidirectional prusik knot is the way to go for most new climbers.

Excellent nick 👍🏼

thanks for the overview!

Thanks, nice video!

That first double adjustable is quite handy, especially limb ascending. But its technically not two attachments as both depend on the same hitch on one side.

I have been working with some pretty basic.Arborist tree climbing equib. Have been browsing around.To how I could improve equib.Good review The double ended adjustable would have advantages.

Great video..... very good info. I was thinking about it today as I was 80' up on my "orange one" thanks for that😡😅

Great video, should have mentioned the thimble prussic! I run it after the adjuster, use it to hook into my secondary D's so the lanyard is truly two independent systems.

I'd get rid of the pulley in a single-hitch, double-ended lanyard setup... I prefer the inconvenience of manually tending a prussik to the risk of taking a 10' fall into my D rings, because that's gotta hurt like hell and then you're left awkwardly dangling with little options for a rescue. Alternatively you can have a full pulley and hitch system on either end of the lanyard. I have a pretty long ~25 ft lanyard with a bare-bones second system (prussik without pulley) on the other side, all my carabiners are triple action 22+kN so I can use them for main life support. It goes as such: [oval carabiner] - (rope)- [

good job.. thanks..

Great video!

Million dollar idea - steel core lanyard for handsaw proof, with braid sheath for hitches, with that chainsaw pant material beneath it to bind up chainsaw. Now go ahead somebody, make that...

Great video tutorial. Thank you. As a side note, this great guy looks a lot like the actor Steve Buscemi, I feel like I am seeing a Quentin Tarantino movie jeje.

Wow. This was recorded a while ago. It's dead of winter. Can't wait to climb without all those layers for warmth again.

Nick - this is the ducks nuts - great insight. Thanks for sharing

Duck and Petzl microscender work mad

Good idea you

Nice stuff there Nick. But I don't understand the bi directional pursick? If I am saying that right???

Thanks

I have. A boat rope ...can I used for Landyar

What length is the wrap star hitch cord?

How long is the wrap star hitch?Thank you

When you say you cant load it out with the mechanical adjuster on the wirecore flip line wht do you mean by that? what are the pros and cons of having a normal prussik on a wirecore as opposed to a mechanical one?

Can someone advise a good prusik rope to use on a 12.5mm wire core lanyard? I would like to give a try to a 2 in 1 lanyard system but don't know wich diameter, material or brand for a prusik I should choose. I saw that there is wire core prusik rope from Yale I think, is it any good?

Great video, very informative. But please pronounce Prusik "prew-sick". 😆

So many technical minds in these fields, not where i come from, rigging

Can you use these for harnesses that only have a from belay loop?

Suppose it’s time for me to replace my Walmart bungee strap I’ve been using

Why does Tree Stuff still sell the Climb Right lanyard if it's faulty?

Question; when making your own rope lanyard are there types of rope that work best? Im thinking mostly of abrasion and how they run with a prussic or rope grab. I’m looking for something 1/2 to 5/8 diameter.

Don't know how people keep their work clothes and climbing gear neat clean and pretty! Doesn't take long for my gear to get that dirty and used look. I buy the cheap clothes to work in because at the end of the climbing day my clothes are horribly dirty. Crazy right!

What's the name brand of the green flip land yard

Cut resistant

Uh no!!! If I fall, I don't want rope feeding out!

Under what conditions is a Rope Logic crimped steel core lanyard better than Yale's Flemmish Splice? There's no way that a simple crimped steel core lanyard can structurally be better than a Flemmish splice. I call BS

Considering it's all free for you.... I'd say you do love the best out there.... "I would've fallen, but that's OK". Says the pro.... Not OK.
