I used to subscribe to the theory of impact force on thin ropes is less until I read this: http://gravsports.blogspot.com/2006/11/single-and-half-rope-impact-forces_30.html (2nd time I posted URL, yawn..) However its interpreted, its important to realise that rope diameter alone does not determine impact force...spreading the load is the important part in double rope technique.
thanks for the report David. Yates screamers are worthwhile. |
