It has come time for me to replace my wirecore flipline and I have a bunch of extra snaps. I am planning on making my own lanyard out of some old safety blue that I have around. I have made several buck strap type lanyards before but I am wanting to try to make something with a prussic cord adjuster and maybe use a VT on it.

Anyone making their own?

Got any pics?

I've got a spare micro pulley as well as a couple of small boat swivel snaps that I could use.
 
Try doing a search for lanyard. DEDA is one of the coolest going now. I found it on here and fixed myself one up and it works sweet. Props to the guys who share info with everyone.:yourock:
 
it was short im thinkin like 26" i know my climbing distel is a 30" beeline and the hrc was shorter..... only thing i need to change on my lanyard is the length of rope i may make it a 30 footer works great for positioning

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. That's why I wanted to make my own so I could have a long one for positioning.

I have a steelcore with a microcender as well. I just need to replace it because I cut it by accident and have bare cable showing. :jawdrop:.
 
hey man. get the isc swivel biner. hold on there was a recent thread with a pic from ghillie let me find it.


edit. thread is "prussic for flipline adjuster" post 47 ghillie put up a pic. i run more or less the same thing (minus that black cordage and different prussic cord). slick.

I got one on my wirecore flipline that I plan to cannibalize and use when I replace my old one.

Still wanna see the pics though. Give me a link to the thread if you find it. I want to check out one of Ghillie's lanyards that I had in mind.

Thanks bud.
