I'm glad to hear that there are quite a few people using cambium savers of some sort. What our ropes do to the young bark at the tops of trees is quite harsh.

Whether you're doing it for the trees or for your equipment, keep it up!

love

From the replies to this post, it appears that everyone uses a leather sleeve on pitches beyond the first. Is there anyone who has found it useful (and goes to the trouble) to use a two-ring friction saver on secondary pitches? What do they teach in the Georgia courses once you are off the ground?
