ArboristSite Lurker
Hi people. I've been getting some great info from arborist site for a couple of months but I've been kind of quiet. I'm new to tree climbing but as I'm married, middle aged, and have kids, I value my life and have treaded cautiously into this endeavor. I have a Petzl hand ascender. The booklet that comes with it describes it as being made for use with kernmantle rope. It makes no mention one way or the other about use with other types. I'm using Arbor Master single braid. Does anyone know if the hand ascender will work acceptably with Arbor Master rope? My use would be simple SRT ascension; no unusual lateral uses or other radical stuff you pros do.
Thanks,
AP
