Just broke one of my carbon geckos. Spent another whole day spiking multiple black wattles on one good and one busted one. I now have a substantial and painful bruise the full length of my right shin.

 

Aluminium version of the Gecko,s it is then!.....

The carbons are really nice Silky but it didn't take much to snap them. Didn't even know I'd done it until I took them off. For the money I thought they'd be almost indestructible. I'd probably still by them again though awesome thread by the way

Fair call, can't fault the logic.

I thought the same... couldn't handle spending out on brand new stuff just to break them.. so I went ally and love them

Go alloy, climbed for years on old bashalins but could not stand them after a knee opp so some1 lent me a set of geckos to try, had some ordered before I got down out the tree, love them!

I agree with you about who you work for, the boss is ment to be the most pro bloke on site not the one acting like a 1st week trainee. You have to enjoy working with who you do as you spend more time with them than your own family. Soon you will get where you want to be

Good luck with gaining grandad status hope it go's easy.
