where can i get a Hasty Webbing Harness please.
-
is the tape knot similar to a water knot?
-
Do you have a video of the tape knot?
Maybe I spelled it wrong, but that's what it sounds like.

Continued from woofna 1948 just below this one:
...down the wall. Twenty feet down, I felt the harness start to come off, and then it somehow miraculously caught itself. My "figure eight" descender, however, was now at my chest level, I had a death-grip on the rope, and the tips of my toes were on a little ledge. It took about five mimutes for someone to rap down & fix the whole mess with more webbing.
Moral of the story is that you can't have too many good knots securing that kind of makes

continued from the woofna1948 comment just below this one:
I tied a "granny" by mistake and backed it with half hitches, a near-fatal error that I almost paid for with my life.
Tubular nylon webbing is a "slippery" material that doesn't hold knots well. We had hiked up to the summit and put the harnesses on just prior to rappelling. All it took to loosen the knots on my rig was a little moveing around as I waited for my turn. It came, I clipped in, leaned back, and began tentatively walkin

My POV on tubular knots differs. I came within a thin whisker of falling several hundred feet on my very first rappell back in the early 1970's. It was on a university outing club climbing trip to Seneca Rocks, WVA. I was a clueless, wet-behind-the-ears newbie who knew nothing about climbing. We used tubular nylon to make our harnesses - same harness as the first one demonstrated in the video. We were told to finish the harness with a square knot backed up with a full hitch on either side
-
Good vid ! I have to disagree about the knot though. Square knots, being backed up, are superior to tape knots....in the sense that you can snug it around your waist. If it's not snugged around your waist, you could fall out of it if your upside down.
-
so do you carry the rope on a retractable lanyard too or do you need to take the bag off for the quick abseil?

I know you guys have a store on your website and you have a few things in it. But I don't know if you guys want to or can do this but, I think you should sell the supplies for making this stuff or doing this stuff in your online store. Personally I wouldn't mind spending some extra money if it meant helping you guys out. Just a thought. ~Graham
