what I need for the job, I hate having things getting in the way. Lanyard, caritool, 020, 50cm sling and retrieval ball for rope guide. other stuff if I need it.

 

Festooning your harness with bling is for poseurs. Rather like the saddos who have a vauxhall corsa bearing half the stock of halfords.... cocks

just a saw, and occasionally a side strop......just incase my climbing line has to become a pulling rope:blushing:

 

You don't regularly carry a side strop? What do you do for a secondary attachment when using a saw?

 

I have a 5m lanyard with an isc mini rope grab (find a long lanyard handy), handsaw, small prussik (purly if needed for rescue), spare karabiner, cambium saver til i put it in, DMM ring (as the sequoia doesn't come with one and i think it makes the vt work better).

 

Keep meaning to get some blood stopper things and a few slings.

 

Anything else I get sent up, proper pain in the arse having to ascend to an achor point with a 20 hanging off you.

Lanyard , saw hook and first aid. I have a bag full of crap I could put on there but only select some thing from it if it's going to be of use for the job at hand... Minimalistic is the way forward. I might even cut all those bits of elastic off on the tree motion to save weight and eye watering momments.

Get some thin PVC tubing from a DIY store, cut the elastic to a single length not that doubled set up chuck the plastic adjuster toggles put the elastic through cut to size tubing, nice n tidy and no eye watering arse twanging. Tried without the elastic but it was not comfy.

keep it light in my opinion, tree motion is heavy enough haha, lightweight lanyard, silky, ART friction saver (until it goes in the tree) and chanson bungee, if i could get it any lighter i would, also small caritool, doubles up as a lanyard holder and general slings and strops holder
