Is it possible to do this? It looks difficult.
I ask a rep from Wespur that very same question, last year and he recommended the eye splice. He said he liked the cleanliness and low bulk of the eye splice and I concur. All that said, there's very little setback with the sewn eye...both are great!Would you recommend a sewn eye or an eye splice?

The simple method looks easier. But leaves the core exposed on the eyeI just tried to do predator rope and failed. It slides in and out so easy on YouTube. They wasn’t doing predator but another double braid. Man it was tight! Couldn’t make it happen.

Yeah but I don’t like it.
I'm going to pony up at have wesspur do it on predator. It's one of the toughest ropes I've ever worked with.I just tried to do predator rope and failed. It slides in and out so easy on YouTube. They wasn’t doing predator but another double braid. Man it was tight! Couldn’t make it happen.

I gave up as well. @flinginairos is the only guy I know who did it.I think it’s close to the same rope as Samson’s velocity. Same diameter but weighs more. So I’m thinking they got a little bit more added in there somewhere. The outer jacket just doesn’t have enough room for me to slide another rope in it. Tried twice and had to cut my fid out.

There’s been a few guys successfully pull it off. I did it once and will never do it again!
