Rope twist while climbing DRT? 8 Months ago
Am I doing something wrong? I've noticed when I climb DRT on my New England Safety Blue, the nearer I get to the anchor limb, the up and down legs seem to want to cross and twist about one full rotation every 30 feet or so. Sometimes I even get my knot hand pinched between them. Again, am I doing something wrong, or is this normal?
