Comfy spikes.

[geoff]

Ok I have been using my Buckingham shin busters for too long,& as my bones show more due to age & neglect,let alone these thin material C.S. trousers & boots we get nowadays,what are the best ish spikes out there.

I want an enclosed solid shin support for my bony pins,& a good hold in the wood when working,Getting a lot of spike work at the moment & fed up with low end kit in this area.

Dont Want carbon super sonics,just a very good ally setup that gives good support with skinny legs.

Stein x2 are light and comfortable. Great grip.

Distel gecko aluminium spikes. Good all round wrap and good grip on the tree. look them up for your own opinion.

I've been using the geckos with velcro straps, I hate wearing spikes and these are the comfiest I've ever worn AND I've got boney legs:lol:

Gotta love the Gecko`s. I`ve been on them all week and they`re fine.

Geoff don't rule out the carbon Gekos, for what you will pay for a set of Ali Gekos a few quid more buys you a very comfy light weight spike!

You could get some caddy pads for your existing spikes or buy new ones if you choose. May have to import them from somewhere like wesspur but they are very comfortable

Thanks guys,think it will be the gekos,probably stick to ally,its a material I understand,bit worried the carbons might get knocked about in the truck.

Geckos with the weaver leather straps!!

 

Hands down!

Gone for velcro ally geckos,they will be better than my buckingham shin busters, which will be going free on another silly thread competition if Steve B says its ok,will be a themed picture thread,something interesting but daft,just got to think it up.
