New Favorite for Schwabish
8mm beeline is my favorite hitch cord with smaller ropes, so I ordered 5ft of the 10mm beeline to try with my new 12.2mm rope. This cord has a bad reputation for not grabbing. When tied in a Michocan or distel I too was discouraged by the lack of engagement from this cord. However, when tied Schwabish, it grabs very reliably! After cutting off my rope splices because of the zigzag and tight unions, I was glad to discover the 10mm beeline Schwabish resists MRS termination knot interference too! The larger size is easier to grab and keep my fingers away from the heat. It’s my new favorite cord. What I love about both 8 & 10mm beeline, is how loosely bound the core and cover are - it bends and conforms and resists twisted hockles very well, which makes it easy to dress, grab (with the right hitch), and release. I’m still using termination knots in my beeline hitch cord, and alternate between 26” 3 wrap and 29” 4 wrap Schwabish with an eccentric pulley & chicane.
Great prusik
Yale Bee-line is awesome cordage. The 10mm is a bit big for my climbing lines, but it’s fantastic for a progress capture on MA systems and rigging applications.
