GRCS worth the cost ?.

[Pete Mctree]

Appreciate the input, I take it they are reliable and no one has bent one ?.

 

You can damage them through abuse - what can't be?

 

Great bit of kit IMO

Mind is made tax relief on thee way in the form of the GRCS. Thanks guys.

Does anyone regularly use one to pull over leaners instead of a winch!

depends

I probably use a tirfor more for pulling trees over. but weve used the grcs to hold windblown trees while weve climbed them, then used it to pull the spar over several times

[Mark Bolam]

That's not what I want to hear John.

The Tirfor is great but lugging it round and setting the cable is sapping my spirit.

We do, often. Stick a pulley above the grcs, it works brill.

haha me to

the problem with pulling stuff with the grxs is you need stuff of a larger stem diameter to anchor it. plus the grcs is more likely to slip than a tiror

 

if your trying to justify getting a grcs, just say I said it was ok

[Mark Bolam]

Oh ok then, I'll get one.
