Brand new boat rope.

Why is 8MM a bad idea? Look at the sharp edges. See the REALLY sharp white nubbins in the center? I think the dark spot near the top is a fly, not rope damage.

Don't tie off something that is small enough to move.

I'm sure these slings are designed to hold a ton, or did they already hold a ton?

Two slings on the same rock is not redundant.

Brand new, but what is it? Haven't seen an eye splice in climbing gear.

  1. I recognise an arborist rope anywhere!

  2. So, probably strong enough, I guess it is cheaper than static rope.
