1. compared to a cover with technora or polyester, is it easier to splice with Dyneema cover. 2. In what application do we use this type of technique? Halyard, Mainsheet with block?
It's maybe a bit easier with Dyneema, but it won't ne a big difference. The technique is mainly used to add extra abrasion resistance to jibsheets, and all types of halyards
@@Premiumropes Thanks for your response. it was indeed easier with the Dyneema cover. I tapered 1.2 meter since it is for a tackline on a small boat. Nevertheless at the end I was not able to tuck back the dyneema tail cover inside the initial cover (Polyester and Technora) the cover was so tied so I was not able to insert a fid. any tips for the next time? I just did a whipping
@@laurentb5401 I dont know which rope you used, but some are difficult or in some cases impossible to splice proper;y. Ask the brand or supplier if a rope can be spliced.
@@laurentb5401 that sounds like VPC to me. It's nice & cheap, but an absolute nightmare to splice. Note that Technora doesn't have great UV resistance, so it's good to make sure it's covered.
That’s some fine work my friend, WAY beyond my rope work and knotting ability.
Excellent video quality, edited very well, and an immaculate working surface. PLease keep making videos. Jim H. Portland, Oregon
Thank you very much!
I kinda miss the music you guys used on your splicing videos from like 9 years ago. Glad to see you guys are still putting out quality content though!
Congratulations your video coming here in Brazil / São Paulo.
Looking forward to this one!
Hope you like it!
brilliant!
What's the length of the dyneema cover used in this example? Thanks
We use 3 meter cover when we want to re-cover 2.5 meter of rope.
@@Premiumropes Thanks! So you strip at the 3rd meter in the example, and the additional cover is 3m as well.
@@GoodOldSlav take 0.5 meter extra for the cover
