Thanks Bino for all the great information! I am taking my skills exam tomorrow, would there be any advantage to using two climbing lines for the test? And will they let you advance the line with a pole and a carabiner attached to the line or do you have to take the carabiner off before you can advance it?
Alot of ropes say like petzl flow come with a tiny slice splice and are labeled like traditional splices..when i got zigzag 4 years ago or so it came as kit with chicane and petzl flow .bought it from bartlett arborist...
