Al_Pine Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 I'm thinking something that might do for a hand line or a pull line for rapping. Maybe just like 6 or 7mm perlon? Doubt it has to be that expensive super-strength shit. Could someone point me places where one might be able to purchase a spool of like 100-200 feet that won't charge you an arm and a leg like a climbing shop might?

Distel32 Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 pretty cheap at second ascent I believe, but if you are set on not going to a climbing shop........could always try home depot or something along those lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinker Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 check rescue supply catalogs, arborist catalogs, fire fighting catalogs, and army surplus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bchaps Posted October 28, 2003 Share Posted October 28, 2003 Climb with half ropes, then you don't have to worry about trailing, carrying an extra line etc.. much safer too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
