[Steve Bullman]

smooth as a babies backside as usual steve, but i have to ask, why didnt you just fell it:biggrin:

 

because my rate doubles when i put my harness on

[White Noise]

Nice work Steve as always Weetabix I must give it a go

you could still wear it on the ground, you need something to keep your first aid kit on:thumbup:the camera is really clear, is that the orange one you guys all bought?

[Steve Bullman]

is that the orange one you guys all bought?

 

yeah...well most of us at least....anyone whose anyone bought one....not got yours yet, no?

[skyhuck]

the retrieval line was just the tail end of my climbing line with a krab attached.....then clipped to a krab on my harness to keep it at hand. obviously you have to be exceptionally cautious and make sure your line isnt going to get snagged....not the best technique to promote perhaps:001_rolleyes:

 

WEETABIX!

 

I was thinking that!!

 

But thats where skill and experience come in!!!

well the thing is, the camera only shows one perspective, it doesnt show that where my line was there was no chance of it snagging....someone inexperienced could easily overlook that and apply the technique to everything.

i thought it was just through a crotch, i usually just leave a loop in my lineand let the guys clip it on, at ground level.

Very good point!!

 

The inexperienced really do need bear in mind that there is aways far more going on in the execution of a good job than can be seen on ANY video.
