Cavers are weird

We have the best priced cave rope online - ARETE PINK LINE. https://hownot2.com/products/pinkline Cavers always want the wierdest anchors so we tested one for them. A 6mm Arete Cave Bug with 5mm Arete Dolphin Cord on a 8mm Petzl Pulse. In shear it did better than I thought, when the cord broke at 13kn and then 18kn. But pulling in tension with a compromised 8mm pulse it only held 4kn and with a new one it held 14kn. In great conditions they are the equivalent to cams. Any compromise in the rock, bolt or cord and it's dangerous. https://hownot2.com/products/cave-bug... https://hownot2.com/products/arete-do... https://hownot2.com/products/coeur-pu...
