[TowerTalk] Safe Climbing was Re: Roswell Tower Accident

[Wayne Kline]

There is plenty of info  that depicts the catastrophic damage to the human body from a none Shock release safety lanyard even if the safety STRAP is used in the back  center shoulder blade  D Ring.
 
This Fall arrest lanyard with small and Big R Bar is IMO reasonably priced.

YMMV
