Looks like I'm ordering some more rope...Exactly my thought! Why carry a stick at all?

Dan O.Does anyone on here sell rope by the foot(ish) or any sites to get climbing rope by the foot instead of ordering 120'? I was thinking about the 2 tether method and just got my 2 ropemans so I can give it a shot

Heres what I'm working on. This is one side. Similar to the 2 tether method mentioned above but assuming this would be easier to navigate limbs and adjust to trunk with ropemen.Dan O.
Not sure how the ropemans would work with this model?

Yeah looks about like what I was shooting for, "similar to a climber". So many videos I've never seen even though I've tried looking all this stuff up. Guess that's what forums are for. Thanks man.This looks like it would be a little less complicated and should be pretty quiet.

My only issue with cam-over steps is how they chew up the tree, if used on soft bark trees like I climb (aspen's). Whereas rope or webbing tethers leave no trace.
How so? I did think about the biner and ropeman dragging against the bark. I also thought of a t hook but figured webbing would be harder to manage going up and didnt know if how the t hooks connection would be a good option in trying to set the cinch by stepping on it which would essentially be trying to disconnect the t hook. And the adjustability of the t hook may not be as functional as the ropemanProbably not an appropriate use for a carabiner.
