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 8 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"-$2.50 ea, 8"-$2.75
ea, 12"-$3.00 ea, 24"-$3.60 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. $3.00 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. $3.00
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. $8.25 ea.
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". $9.50 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 +/-. $12.00
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.
$17.00 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. $29.00 ea.
