Here a while back I got stuck in a pine , my akimbo wouldn’t ascend cuz my rope was full of pitch ! Found out that brake clean desolves it instantly, and I see no damage to my rope ! Try it
have you ever consudered taking up a bottle of hand sanitizer to help free up the RRP? I know its mainly the lines causing the issues but it works to remove sap and could help free it up a bit if the joints starts to stick. Just a thought.
I take a spray can of brake clean and a rag up with me, it cuts desolves it instantly. No damage to my rope . Ben spraying it on my rope for a year now !
I absolutely hate climbing sap covered pine trees 🌲. It was actually really hard to even watch this video because I couldn’t shake the feeling of being in the tree and getting all sticky. Props for even taking the job I hope that you were well compensated and it was worth the mess. Climb safe and GOD Bless my Brother. 🙏😇

Love the video, wish the music was 60% lower.
I use the Xstatic rope with my RR2 also..I love the static rope more then a dynamic one. Is your rope destroyed from the pitch?
The rope is still good with zigzag , so not totally destroyed. I use on side sticky trees and and the other is for using the RR.
On non cone bearing.
So, what do you use to clean up your gear of the sap?
Gene Kuhns, Jr. So sap Zapper or veggie oil or just burn it off with continuous use
Spray brake clean from your automotive store !
