2 tether or die.

When I first saw a 2tc video I thought you would have to be nuts to try that. Since I am 1/2 nuts, I decided to try it. My first couple of attempts led me to believe my first impression was correct. You have to be nuts to do this. I persisted and adjusted my equipment and technique to work for me and with some more practice, I think it might replace my one stick climbing. I believe I am quieter, create less slack and can more easily adjust to trees that are not perfectly straight. I have plenty of time to practice before next season. Hopefully by that time I will have all the bugs ironed out.

With my 2 stirrups, climbing aider, rappelling length tether, linesman, extra friction hitch and biner I have the option to climb multiple ways. I can use the leap frog stirrups and aider style that I use 99% of the time, reconfigure some ropes around and 2tc, or if the situation is right...I can throw my grapple hook up over a branch and pull my tether up and rope climb.....combine elements from all different climb styles to achieve as much versatility as I can get with the least amount of gear

I'd love to go out there and bring some east coast swagger and see how it plays out....probably never happen but I can day dream right?
