8mm Tether
Absolutely great! I paired it with a Kong duck and I’ll never look back! Smaller and lighter then the 11mm and stronger too!

Easy to manage
The 8 mm tree tether is extremely light and compact. The Cornell hitch eliminated the need for a ropeman ascender. The hitch is easy to tend up and down while climbing or positioning in the tree. This set up is extremely quiet due to the fact that there is no carabiner rattling inside of the ascender.
In the event of a fall, the Prusek will not damage the tether by digging its teeth into the rope core like a mechanical ascender could possibly.

Lightweight and mobile tree tether that is extremely beginner friendly!
The 8mm tree tether fits well in my SYS hauler and I hardly notice it while climbing up. Would recommend to anyone who asked!
