Ok, so I am 220lbs. My question is, has anyone rappelled with paracord, maybe using one strand on each side secured around a tree or something so you could recover it?
In theory, 550 cord should hold you, and you got two strands, but just one say around the back of the tree.
I've been wanting to test this. I think in a survival situation if you had 100ft wound up, you could rappel down some steep inclines if need be.
