You can make a single eye split tail (tied or spliced) with hitch cord, just fine. That's what you'll want for tying a tauntline or a Blake's. For the more "high-speed" and customizable hitches (distal, vt, Campbell... etc,) you'll need an eye2eye prussic cord. These can also be tied or spliced...

I'll be there! Looking forward to putting a ton of miles on the vintage cycle I picked up last summer! After 11years in the boy scouts, 2 years hitchhiking the country and many more nights sleeping outside on winter vacations... I'm getting a bed and breakfast! I have a fox tail for a keychain...

So incredibly cool!!! Thanks for sharing, and doing right thing!!!

I love tree stuff, but can't recall if the rep from sterling, or pctree with ropetek turned me on. The rep asked me to drop some reviews, and honest before anything else, I really put that RIT9mm through the paces. Thanks for the tips: I'm kind of a techtard. Still can't find the oil filler cap...

Thanks for the welcomes! I'm looking forward to posting pics of my splicing for feedback, as well as showing off my homemade HAAS... Sooooo many forums to read, and so many cool cats posting some awesome tips, tricks and info!

My biggest problem with buying a GRCS (aside from the serious commitment of cash,) is that I have to trust my groundies to use it properly. As a contract climber, I work with several different crews, and pick up random work off of craigslist and such. I always set the port-a-wrap or bollard...

Bombproof Tech cord I've been climbing on my HH as much as possible, since I got it last fall. I seemed to be burning through hitch cord far more quickly than I do climbing DdRT. I climb a lot, being a freelance production climber, and I've been splicing my own eye2eye's for a few years. They...
