Arizona Vortex Tripod - Setup tips

[@colinwalker1626]

This video is the best I have seen on this topic! I don't know why it's taken me so long to notice it. Clear, consise, unambiguous and on point! Thanks Richard

Thanks Richard for the excellent Vortex video. You seem to have covered it all in your relaxed, easy-to-understand manner.

Great Video Richard, I love the powercord and the 3x main anchor setup!

When you tie off the rigging rope - presumably PowerCord? -you use a round turn and 2x half hitches. Is this better than the often used way with ropes - ie: clove hitches? I ask this as when using PowerCord, I found some slight deformations in the cord where the clove hitches were tied. So, do round turns and half hitches remove this issue?

Thank you for sharing. Question: What kind of rope/cord you using for initial three branch anchor?

[@RopeLab]

As mentioned in the video: Sterling PowerCord

@@RopeLab Thanks. I just couldn't hear it because of audio. Maybe it's my computer.

Oh dear, don’t tell me there are audio problems with this video…. I just re-exported them all to this one video and thought I had fixed the audio. Can you hear my voice - or is super quiet and sounding more like R2D2 whistles and pops?

[@RopeActionProject]

@@RopeLab Oh no, Richard, don't worry. The whole video is hearable. I could understand everything except the moment about the Sterling cord. It is important to me because Sterling is one of the brands that we can get in Mexico relatively easy and it's great to know about this particular setup.
