- In this episode, I go over the majority of the hitch cords available on the market right now for use by arborists and tree climbers and I provide specifications and technical details for each one! After that, I provide my personal opinion of each cord. There were only a few that I thought weren't that great, so it was hard to find anything truly terrible in a sea of good choices. My goal, more than anything else, was to help raise awareness of all of the different choices that are available right now from places like TreeStuff, WesSpur, Arbsession, SherrillTree and Bartlettman. All of these sites can be visited by adding a "dot" com after their names in a browser. My personal favorites are WesSpur and TreeStuff; just look under "prusik/tech cordage."

@@Knot-orious thank you my good Sir, this was wicked to sea 👌👌
I’m still baffled why no one likes or reviews the Ice prusik by R. logic. It is by far, to me, the best gripping flexible prusik made. It grips awesome and releases awesome as well.
First of all, the Prusik is a friction hitch, not a friction cord. The Ice HITCH CORD by Rope Logic is a great one, but, if I'm not mistaken, it's single braid, and not kernmantle, which makes it sort of a relic in the climbing world unless you need a split tail or foot locking prusik for a 12-16 strand rope Thanks for commenting!
Video yang bagus pak.
Dalam video ini, anda tidak menyebutkan kabel halangan singing rock arbo prusik.
Saya menggunakan kabel halangan singing rock arbo prusik 8mm untuk tali 11mm.apakah anda akan merekomendasikan kabel halangan ini ?
As far as I'm aware, Singing Rock is a website that sells climbing equipment and sells A LOT of products on Amazon. I tried looking it up and all I could find was another cord called the Timber by Singing Rock. What is your cord made out of? Is it an eye to eye with sewn eyes? All I can say for now is that there exist better hitch cords. Have you ever heard of Wesspur.com? They are my go to distributer for anything related to arborist style climbing and have the best hitch cord selection hands down. You can buy them with sewn eyes, they have a few spliced eye to eyes, and my favorite, bulk hitch cord sold by the foot where you can create your own eye to eyes by tying poachers knots at each end and tying hitches with it. For an 11mm rope, I would recommend the Sterling RIT Response www.wesspur.com/ROP356-rit-9mm-prusik-cord-by-the-foot
Or the EpiCord 9.3mm www.wesspur.com/ROP361-epicord-9.3mm-prusik-cord-by-the-foot?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAt5euBhB9EiwAdkXWO2xhZzxjvRE_t15I3ytFPBxuytwJjyE1Ocm7iZKZOt1fNB_v5PJw_hoCzwEQAvD_BwE
The picture on the website makes the EpiCord look brown, but it's actually a deep blue with cream accents. You can call Wesspur and ask them to make you a hitch cord of any size you want. Say you want a 30" eye to eye. They'll sew viking eyes onto each end at that length. You can also ask them to splice certain hitch cords if you prefer for a bit more money. The reason I'm recommending the 9mm and 9.3mm cords is because, on an 11mm rope you will find that your hitches are much more responsive and less grabby. So long as you set and dress your hitch properly, you don't have to worry about it failing at all. Tell me what your hitch cord is made out of. If it has any polyester in the cover, I would recommend buying something different. Here's the Wesspur bulk by the foot hitch cord selection...

They have pre-made eye to eyes in a different section, so check it out.
Ya, lebih tepatnya tertulis singing rock timber accessory cord.
Made of : polyester, technora.
Saya menggunakan sambungan mata ke mata dengan panjang 30 inch.
Maaf pak , bahasa inggris saya kurang bagus ,jadi saya memakai bahasa yang saya.
Jangan khawatir tentang menulis dalam bahasa Anda sendiri! Saya sering harus menerjemahkan komentar dari pemirsa asing! Sejujurnya saya tidak keberatan melakukan terjemahan, jadi jangan khawatir! Mengenai kabel gesekan Kayu, saya yakin Anda akan baik-baik saja. Ini memiliki sarung poliester/technora. Satu-satunya kelemahan dari jenis sarung ini adalah poliester akan meleleh, rusak, dan berubah bentuk seiring waktu. Namun, technora akan tetap tidak terluka dan tidak terpengaruh oleh gesekan tersebut. Sebaiknya gunakan tali yang sarungnya seluruhnya terbuat dari serat aramid. Saya tidak menyadari bahwa Anda berasal dari Indonesia, jadi rekomendasi saya untuk sebuah vendor mungkin tidak berguna bagi Anda. Namun rekomendasi saya untuk kabel halangan yang lebih baik masih tetap kuat. Jika Anda lebih suka kabel 8 mm, ada banyak opsi yang lebih baik. Tapi apa yang Anda gunakan saat ini baik-baik saja. Jadi jangan terlalu khawatir tentang hal itu. Kabel halangan kayu adalah pilihan yang baik. Itu tidak akan bertahan selama tali pengikat dengan seluruh serat aramid di sarungnya.
Mungkin di waktu yang akan datang saya akan mencoba kabel halangan yang lain, yang lebih baik. ya,,saya dari indonesia pak. Trimakasih sudah meluangkan waktu anda untuk menjawab setiap pertanyaan saya. Dari video anda, itu sangat berguna dan sangat membantu saya dalam merintis karir saya. saya banyak belajar mengikat berbagai macam simpul , dan belanja beberapa perlengkapan panjat pohon. Semoga Tuhan memberkati bapak
