This Arborist Rope Scared The S#!% Out Of Me
🕑 Added 2022-12-31 16:42:33 +0000 UTCPATRONS: Been spending about 3 hours each morning editing trying to keep up with episodes and the rest of the day on the new lab. It's beautiful and I'm already breaking some stuff to see what would make for the best next episode. I have about a dozen videos from the drop tower I'm editing so that's exciting to put those out over the next few months. Got to get the ice climbing course out before summer :). You guys make this possible. π
Tenex Tec is a polyester arborist rope that is rated to 83kN. It is hollow braid which means it's meant to be spliced. We tested this rope with one fid bury instead of two like it requires. We were able to get full strength out of it.

So cool! I have a couple 3/4β tenex tec Whoopie and ultra slings, they are beast! Itβd be cool to do static and dynamic load test of different mechanical devices like the zig zag, with and without the chicane, the rope runner, akimbo etc. π maybe on the drop tower
