Can it be used for repelling? (150 lbs)

Rothco is spec'd at a sustainable rate buy myself I would rely on 5/16" or 3/8" for repelling as the polyester cover is better suited for wear. since safety standards are typically 75% of rating you would only repel once and only in an emergency situation. Any failure would be at the knot point as the stress there would exceed the cord specification not in all likelyhood along the rope length.

The term is "rappelling" and no, this rope is not made for technical climbing. You should use only ropes bought at outdoor stores made specifically for climbing or caving for rappelling or doing any rope work involving body weight and your life.

I would say no. I thought this product was junk. It certainly wasnt what they said as holding up to 20 lbs.

I would not use it for that at all. You can use a simple steel rod for that.

It really depends on how much weight you plan on using. I don't think I've gone much heavier than 150lbs, but it's a very solid piece of equipment, the padding is sturdy and doesn't spread too much either!

It was suppose to hold quite a bit, but mine failed within a week. It kept going down and the pump would not work properly. I do not recommend for someone over 150 lbs.

I would say no. Although it could. Think of it as a tightrope. Could be dangerous, but could be fun with a lot of supervision

I believe it would, as when testing it, I pushed down with my hands and it worked...I'm sure I wasn't pressing even 100 lbs. My mother is 135 lb and it works great.

It would not be as effective. It is used mostly as a smacking defense. There are a few YouTube vids demonstrating on how it works.

No way, too much work to get it off. You can't carry much weight with it, not sturdy, like the 157, but a lot lighter. I say good for 10-15lbs maybe.

We have used it on our springer (35 pounds) to get her to not run into the street. Wife no longer allows me to use it (personal objection). It worked great and the adjustments make it serve well.

Not sure of the "limit, but I am a full size adult weight 150 pounds and I used it no problem.

It should work if you can secure it adequately. Keep in mind the 180lb weight limit.

It is currently handling my ~22lb center OK.It doesn't inspire supreme confidence in its ability though. At least in my experience it does the job but it is a little scary looking.

It is designed to withstand 850 pounds but that does not include a sudden jerk on the line which can triple the load. A 150 pound child should be fine depending on how long the descent is going to be. Or if the line will be left to weather etc.

That's not how we intend to use it and in our windy conditions wouldn't try it. I would be curious how effective weights are but can't answer that for you.

Hi - this is not designed to pull anyone on a land board. It's purpose is for learning to fly kites/practice for kiteboarding. I've been using this kite for a few years and if it was blowing 15kts or more might be fun to try a land board with it. It's great for practice, but at 185lbs I've never been lifted.
