Rope material and lengths
Posted: Wed Feb 23, 2022 11:54 pm
A bit of a double question here as I'm curious for others opinions on the matter. What do you think is the best material to use when tying someone. Jute, hemp, cotton, Nylon... ECT?
I myself use cotton and I have used a bit of jute in my time both handle fairly well, I've considered getting some nylon rope in the future but I'm struggling to find a good place that sells it and I'm not sure how it performs I'm worried it'll slip and slide everywhere before I can get knotted. So that is my first question.
My second being what is the largest rope size you have in your collection? Now it's not a competition so don't start comparing sizes with each other . The largest one I have in my collection is about 25 metres in length as i always like to have an excess amount when I move onto tying the chest harness as it gives me plenty to play around with and to make a few patterns as I try to coordinate and match it up on both sides if possible.
