Reg that is yet another set of brilliant work pics. I have been investing in a rigging kit at the mo- I have finally decided to bite the bullet having made do with i wont admit what and borrowing/ subbying. This thread and your vids on HB website have been extremely informative and very inspirational. Thanks for taking the time. I am going for an RC2000 based system BTW, as i think that will cover all bases for the time being. Top stuff sir.

i used nothing but a portawrap for years tom, the rc2000 is a step above this and will have you well on your way

 

great work as usual reg:thumbup1:

Thats what i thought Steve. I have borrowed a portawrap based system when i havent ben using my own, ahem, 'rigging kit' and thought that if i spend just a little more, comparitively, then it should last me my working life.

good show reg, p/s iv just got a rc3001,2,dead eye slings & a big pulley for £400,all in, just shopped about ,already got the ropes may even get another 5,yrs out off them now

Some footage from the headcam. I had better on the other (ground) camera but I think the rain must have got in it on the day because its totally dead tonight and I cant even get the tape out. Sorry about that guys, I’d hoped to do a better job but its just not worked out this time.

isnt five years the limit for LOLER'erd gear?

Nice work as always Reg.

Couple of questions.

1: why in the video does it seem you alternate between timber hitch and bowline after your half hitch?

2: if the double pulley setup isn't set exactly level, would the weight be caught on a single side first (matter of split seconds), and would this make any noticable difference to swl's?

3: can't really see from the video but could you have setup some sort of friction device for the tag line on the tree opposite to make life easier for the poor lad attached to them big lumps?
