Buying guide
Small gear, real time savings
A dedicated saw holster keeps a top-handle saw secure on your saddle when it is not running. A large gear hook carries rope or a rigging setup up the tree. A soft canopy anchor is a textile anchor you can set around a stem or limb for a tie-in. Each of these makes a common task safer or faster. Check whether an item is rated for life support or for gear only, follow its instructions, and inspect it with the rest of your kit.
Choosing accessories
The best accessories solve a problem you run into often. If you climb with a top-handle saw, a holster like the Sawpod keeps it secure. If you carry heavy gear aloft, a big hook like the DMM Captain Hook spreads the load. If you set many anchors, a soft canopy anchor gives you a quick, rated option. Avoid adding gear just because it is new; more items on your saddle means more weight and more things to snag.
Common questions
Is a soft canopy anchor life-support rated?
Rated textile anchors are designed for life support when used as directed. Always confirm the rating and instructions for the specific product.
