Adaptability is the name of the game. You can spot the serious climbers cos they have 250kg breaking strain bootlaces.. AFAIK apart from a prussik (sp?) knot the only useful bit of kit for climbing a rope is a Croll (I only know of Petzl ones but there may be others) or maybe a Shunt in extremis. You can't attach a fig8 or Stop to a loaded rope. |
