It works on ropes between 8mm and 12mm in diameter. 12 sticks of 1/2 inch are equal to 1/2 inch. Size 7 mm
rope is held in place by putting pressure on the rope against the tibloc by the carabiner. You must pull the carabiner away from the rope in order to descend. As you descend from the tree, it would not be recommended. Unlike a prusik knot, it is comparable to one.

I would rather have them than need them. It's probably the most expensive piece of hardware in my whole rappelling kit in terms of size and weight, but it works and I'd rather have them than need The product is also very light in weight.
It was highly recommended to me by world-renowned experts The big 7 of mountains, including Everest summit, were world-class mountaineers. In order to listen to them, I did. The device is easy to use with one hand and it works well regardless of the weather.
Device is reliable and works as advertised. I appreciate the fact that it is simple and light in The next time I travel, this will always be in my bag!.
This is the traditional, basic ascend. A strange orange plastic thing keeps the carabiner from sliding by preventing it from There is not much tension held by the Tibloc, so you still have to thread the ‘biner through the rope.
I highly recommend this piece of equipment. Emergency situations can be handled much faster with this as opposed to a prussik.
The product is awesome.
While I was playing with it in a tree to get a feel for what it would be like, it snagged the sheath when it slipped a bit. Although it would probably work in a pinch, it would not be my first choice to use on all of my good ropes.
A climbing harness is a necessity for every climber. It is small, light, and handy if you find yourself needing to ascend a rope during an emergency. A quick and easy way.
