Hey all, I've got a question I haven't seen addressed here yet. How do you manage your pull cord for large drops? Do you feed it out of a bag while rappelling?
I'm planning a trip out here on the islands that includes both a 300ft and 500ft drop and am shuffling through ideas on the most efficient way to get the pull cord to the bottom. I'm going to be using 550 paracord for the pull line which is a pain to work with (not ideal, but all I have). My thought so far is to have the paracord on a spool, attach one end of the cord to a gear loop of the first rappeller, and unspool it from up above as they descend. It seems to me that is would be easier than having the rappeller deal with it and/or deal dealing with any kinks coming out of a rope bag. Thoughts? Anyone utilize a better method? Thanks.
