  • flip rope?

    Sorry for the vague post, but i saw in a video once a rescue rope that you can use to right your yak if you flip. It is nothing fancy, just a rope with a triangle at the end that can be used as a make-shift ladder step to get up. My new yak is a pig and I probably could use something extra to flip it. Also since i have missed a few of ballet classes, i can't do my barre leg stretch like I used to to, so the step may help my fat butt get up. Anybody know who makes it?
    I know, i could make it, but for a few bucks, I'll reward for creativity.

    This is what you're looking for. I have two, and luckily haven't needed to try one yet.

        That is a good idea. I capsized once and could not get back in. Guess I need to order one.

        If you are not satisfied with the color or texture of your custom made Doc Irv baits just let me know and I will redo it at no cost to you to your satisfaction, because I am not happy unless you are happy.*

            I flipped at the CBKA a few years ago, they gave me a rope ladder.. I have it equipped every time I go out just incase.
            People who use the word "literally" wrong literally kill me.

              That is a good idea, I actually have something similar from my days as a rigger. It is a little webbing "ladder" that you keep clipped to yourself incase you fall and are hanging by your life line. It lest you take weight off of you harness, which can cause issues if you are up there for very long.
