Samson Arborfreak

A new look for a tried and tested rope construction! Arborfreak tree climbing rope will be popular with climbers who want durability and ease of handling.

Arborfreak is a durable 16-strand rope with maximum firmness for all climbing techniques. Arborfreak has low stretch and excellent knot-holding capability, with great grip. Spliceable at both ends without milking, it is easy to inspect.

No other rope we stock has the same combination of strength, performance, and durability. This rope is an excellent balance of high strength (6,500 lb. spliced) and low weight (7.7 lb. per 100 ft).

Arborfreak is the replacement for ArborMaster, which was sold under many names: Blue Streak, Bigfoot, Hawkeye, Gold Streak, etc.  This is the same rope construction, with new branding.
