Sewn runners are lighter, stronger, less bulky and more foolproof than knotted slings. For virtually every route you will do, some slings are mandatory. As a rule always take more slings than you think you might need. Rope drag sucks. All of our slings are made from Mil-Spec / Climb-Spec tubular nylon webbing and sport a full 9 or more bartacks per bond for exceptional strength. Colors are mixed, but we do take suggestions.
OPEN SLINGS: (available in 1" webbing or 5/8"
webbing)
These are the standard slings for everyday use. A "full length
runner" as it is called would be a 24" loop. The 4"
size is usually used for quickdraws, and the middle sizes can
be looped back on themselves to make quicks that can give you
a bit more length when needed. 4"-$2.00 ea, 8"-$2.25
ea, 12"-$2.50 ea, 24"-$3.00 ea,
48" - $4.75 ea.
RAGE CLIPS:
This is a 4" Quickdraw with a solid body design to keep your
biners from flopping around. Ideal for the daily grind of clipping
up Sport Routes and the like. $2.50 ea.
TWISTED RAGE CLIPS:
This is the same style as the Rage Clip but features a full twist
sewn into the loop. Having this twist in the sling makes the biner
you are trying to clip hang oriented, that is with the gate facing
out, when clipped through a bolt. This feature comes in real handy
on the overhanging desperates, where every second counts, and
a missed clip could mean a run in your Lycra. $2.50 ea.
Note: like duh... the biners shown on all the clips in the photo
ain't included.
Fish-O-Let Anchor
A nice way to tie up the modern sport anchor. Doubles as an over-the-shoulder
runner or can be carried like a quick draw. 5/8" tubular
nylon webbing with two loops bartacked into each end. Simply clip
each loop into the bolts, even out the strands and tie a figure
8 knot. Fast, easy and bomber. Overall length is abour 5ft 6inches.
$7.75 ea.
New
Top-O-Let!
After clipping too many bolts this last year, I decided
to shorten the standard Fish-O-Let and make it more robust. The
new Top-O-Let is made from 1" tubular nylon (versus 5/8"
on the Fish-O-Let) and is the perfect length for clipping the
anchors on the standard sport route. There is room for adjustment,
but you don't look like a total n00b carrying a 30ft hank of webbing
just to clip two bolts. A simple overhand knot is easy to release
after loading and the four total strands of 1" webbing between
the bolts and the lowering point give a wide safety margin from
abrasion or cutting. Overall length is about 43". Intro
price is $9.00 each.(biners not included)
9/16" SUPER
TIE-OFF WEBBING, back in stock!!!
This 9/16" Tie-Off web is thin enough to thread through the
eye of pitons easily or behind a truly dicey pin that is hanging
out a mile. Don't mistake this with the lighter duty 1/2"
Tie Off Webbing sold elsewhere. Our Super Tie Off web is 50% stronger
than the 1/2" variety. Also note, this is not that thick
9/16" SuperTape webbing that is normally too thick to use
as tieoffs. 50 feet per pack, natural color. A standard tieoff
takes 2feet. A loop of this tied with a water knot will break
at about 2600lbs +/-. $11.00 ea.
1" TUBULAR WEBBING:
Tie your own runners, bail out of a tree, set up a slackline,
lash some swag down on your boat. Tons of uses. This is the 1"
tubular nylon webbing to use. Assorted colors. Comes in 50 foot
lengths. Need some longer? Email us. $15.00 for 50 ft.
GRAIN TAMER
The Grain Tamer is an edge protector
that secures itself around the rope used in a toprope anchor.
This little device reduces the chance of not only rope wear, but
heads popping off due to rope failure. The business section of
the Grain Tamer is the same White Vinyl we use on our haul bags,
but double thickness. Each edge has a Velcro strip to secure the
guard around your rope as if it was the filling in a Taquito.
To keep the Tamer in place, each end has a Fastex clip attached
to a prussik. Simply loop the prussik around your cord and clip
it to the Tamer, no slips, no mistakes, and more importantly,
no escaped heads. The Grain Tamer is big enough to use around
11mm ropes, including the knot. Overall length runs about 24".
This is a must have item in every topropers arsenal. $26.00
ea.
