Work-positioning lanyards are a critical part of your tree-climbing gear. A flipline is a special type of lanyard made from braided arborist rope over steel wire cable. This makes it more rigid and easier to flip up the tree - especially on larger stems. Lanyards without a wire-core are lighter and ideal for line clearance workers to avoid the conductivity of steel wire. Extra-long lanyards can also be used as a short MRS climbing system in the canopy. See our Video Guide to Lanyards or Contact Us for help selecting.
