Hey guys! Great to see such a community for the tree climbers. Anyways, Im new to this. Just bought a split suspension cotton arborist saddle, slick line throw line kit, 150' of 1/2" Arbor-Plex, Petzl Ascension ascender, basic figure-eight, auto-locking carabiner, pre-tied Technora prusik loop, 24" nylon sling, 1/4" quick link, and a ascender foot sling.
Also got a rigging system. I got movies and books for rigging, but I failed to get enough information on how to set up the actual rope climbing stuff above. (I also have the tree climbers companion)
How do you put the harness, Petzl Ascension ascender, basic figure-eight, auto-locking carabiner, pre-tied Technora prusik loop, 24" nylon sling, 1/4" quick link, and the ascender foot sling all together!?
I know how to get the line in the tree, ect...
But I cant figure out the system for me. How to attach myself to the rope with all the above pieces.
Could anyone help or send me to a couple simple pictures or something?
It would be GREATLY appreciated.
