Wet steel and bald approach shoes don’t inspire confidence. Also make sure you have a real set up. You’re looking at a fall factor of 5 or greater if you slip so making your own lanyard is a bad idea.

@John – I do, brought it over from Canada with me when I moved to Germany. Definitely worth the purchase.

I was tempted by the kit on sale at Quechua, Domancy earlier this year. A harness with two lanyards, and helmet at a very reasonable price.

Glad you broke through your can’t and did it, Laurel. I’m sure you’re feeling much stronger for it.
