Tree climbing line has almost no stretch and is a half inch. Rock climbing line is 7/16ths stretchy nylon with some friction mitigating synthetic like polypropylene, so with her harness the stop would be mellow.

ReplyDeleteRussians - crazy people. The guy who "invented" this bungee jumping without bungee rope died soon after.
