SRT (SRS) Rope Walking

[jasonnewman]

How long of a piece of rope did you use? I know everyone's strid is different. I broke my knee acender a while ago and have been looking for another way to get up the rope quicker with out wearing me out.

Love watching for all the little tips and tricks you provide.

I knew this long long ago like around 2000s . I learned almost this exact set up from an coolest Japanese guy. I called him " Krazy climber "😂 he was using sling as chest harness . Even tho, i knew this set ups, i bought myself a knee ascender just to help this industry tho . 😂 Great Video !🎉

I dig it... I ordered the Edelrid knee cruiser. It's designed to attach to the bungee on the Edelrid chest harness. But, I don't have one of those. So I ordered a bit of bungee and will rig something similar.

I saw this on your previous video; and now its my favorite way to rope walk. I use a loop of shock cord that I simply hold in my hand instead of the neck tether. I really like the k.i.s.s. principle!!

I just put a termination knot on a carabiner, and tied a bowline for a foot loop. I used my old split tail from the Blakes hitch days lol

Ok, I got to watch this like 10 times.

The foot lanyard provides a stable position for the free leg while you advance the climbing leg. It is static to the device on the rope. So it's not actually doing any ascending. Excellent videos. 🎉

Like that alot ..hard to get knee sender set rite still learning srt

Teach bro! You are already a legend! Zaccheus!

As always looking for different ways to rope walk up into a tree. I think a Foot ascender and a foot loop similar to your setup looks like a nice setup.

[davilarhymes]

hell ya i find the knee asender helpful for longer ascents but stick to what ur doing for most, nice and simple, great vid!!

25% less gear ⚙️ wo the knee ascender! TY very much for the link in your old video to this one. It turns out I get the new improved version description! Would this system work with a rope wrench or just the Rope Runner Pro? John in Phoenix

I try it a few times. it does work... the "placebo ascender" works as a way of letting your foot rest on a rope to feel that you can step up. even thou you are not necessarily gaining height on the rope. in short I think a knee ascender still has his place and provides a more efficient way to go up. ALSO GREAT TO KNOW THIS as a less equip option

[mreggbird]

It makes sense to utilise the main climbing device instead of adding one extra

[TheManstart]

im using a Rope Man 2 in place of a knee ascender with paracord doubled and looped around my lead foot and hand. its kinda awk, but def less so than a “noose tender”! hah. get a notch chest rig if not a diy wrist loop.

[ClellWise]

Thanx Zach. Looks easy enough but a couple of ? if you would be so kind. How tall are you and how long is the finished length of the tied rope foot loop? How did you decide it was the right length?

I already own a knee ascender but this looks like a very effective way to save almost $200 for the rest of the guys I’m trying to get set up for easier ascent into the tops. I’ll definitely have to play around with this idea. Thanks, oh and I love my monkey beaver suspenders, has the tether and safety whistle built into it and only $100, helps when you need to have a big saws hanging from your belt too.

[robbob_the_climber]

Get the monkey beaver suspenders I’ve been rocking them for two years now. Well worth the investment.

Not only does it help with SRS but when you got a tote a lot of gear up or have a big saw on your hip negative rigging once you have those suspenders, you won’t even feel it

Great setup! I like how easy it was to release the “knee ascender” i usually end up fighting mine off then im left with it dangling from my boot, very annoying. Might give this a try!
