Abstract
A tether includes a length of rope with a primary loop at a midpoint for connection to a rope wrench, a pair of secondary loops remote from the primary loop, and a generally stiff but partially flexible rope cover between the primary and secondary loops, the rope cover being pre-curved along its length, the tether also including a tail-portion of the rope between the secondary loops and the rope cover, providing unrestricted 360° flexibility for the secondary loops, the rope cover sufficiently rigid to permit the handle end of the rope wrench to be pushed or pulled by hand and the rope cover retaining its curve to minimise the risk of a user's hand interfering with a hitch cord, and the tail portion of the tether is sufficiently flexible to withstand side-loads.
