[QUOTE="Brendon Phillips, post: 4809772, member: 122028"] For my rope walking setup I prefer double rope. I ascend single then switch over. Try the DRT with a Blake's hitch make from the climbing rope but split tailed. I just cut off a 2 ft length to tie it with. Finish off with a micro pulley for tending slack. Works great. Cheap and effective, easy to redirect. The only thing I gave that up for was the new zigzag. Nothing compares to the ease of that thing. For SRT rope walking I just use the two handles ascenders just like I use to climb. It can be a pain to descend and give yourself slack, but ascending is fast. It's the Texas rig. [/QUOTE]
