Trouble is they're not tested or certified, like we'd have to get a few and test them then rate them wouldn't we?

They are a lot more pliable, they react more like natural rope so some people dont like them because of that ... I do as it's better on palm fronds and tighter bends, then again, I used one of the stiff ones not long ago and didn't like it, sort of had a mind of it's own.

Trev, what sort of adjuster do you use? Gibbs, Petzel, Moxham?? In other words can the flip line be made and you fit the adjuster later? You just cant do that with a moxham, that's got to be fitted when it's made.

If you use a snap hook that's gotta be fitted also when it's made.

Trev, if you want one just send me the required length of New England High Vee + 200mm for swage crimp, thimble and snap etc.
