I bought a 50 foot winch rope kit kit from HF made from UHMWPE. I was thinking 50 feet is the perfect length for an SRT climbing line. I tried hanging from the line with my Petzl ascender and it worked OK. The rope was a little deformed but it is tough and strong. I have been thinking about trying a Texas climbing system for SRT so I already have right and left hand ascenders. Using this rope would be the ultimate lightweight climbing line. I tried it through a GriGri and it would not hold. Getting down from the tree may be a problem. I could downclimb using the ascenders but this is not exciting or maybe it might be TOO exciting.
Anyway, I have not been in trouble on SH for many days now, so I figured I would just post this idea. Do you think I will shoot my eye out?
