Basilisk Pocket Sling - 5/8"

Pocket tree rigging slings with Tylaska Basilisk LFB 20 low friction block. These slings have the three-hole Basilisk blocks spliced into the end, and multiple 'pockets' over the length of the sling. Simply pass the ring end through the pocket closest to the needed length. No knot-tying required.

Any of the 3 rigging holes in the Basilisk LFB 20 can be used to run your rigging rope. Vary the way you run the rope to change up the friction applied.
