Frank our set-up's are frighteningly similar.

 

So is our takedown methodology by the sound of things! You need a long extension cable for the bigger stuff though, don't you?

Yeah they are quite similar, and I only just moved onto some 8mm red and black friction cord last week, off of the yellow and black stuff.

 

My take down methodology (is that a word?) is simply, "tree, meet ground".

Glide saddle (want the Tree Austria)

60m of Tachyon spliced end and hitchclimber

friction hitch is the XT (variation of the vt) with HRC Knotted not spliced (so it can be fine tuned)

Landyard is 3m Blaze with a Martin

I wana see some of these climbing systems they sound complicated, i work with a 56 year old guy who's only been doing Arb 4 years and i do feel some times Im teaching him more than Im learning from him.

Any thing any one can show i might not already know would be much appreciated.
