Is the RR not meeting your expectations? I would really like a comparison of these two products. On the one hand the RR can be LOLER tested, whereas the Bone can not, as yet(as far as I've understood), yet the Bone seems smoother... Has anyone compared these products yet? Cheers!

 

I have had the bone since early summer. The runner just a month longer. In my opinion they both kick equal amounts of ass. The bone is the easiest thing to take on and off a rope EVER. But beyond that, they are very much neck and neck for me. Really I go back and forth regularly. I love them both so much. Buy one, then once you have recovered financially buy the other. Unless you are going to be doing DSRT then you should have two of one or the other.

 

In all honesty I WILL NOT go back to hitch cordage. And I used to love hitch cordage.

That was fast John. I guess customs now knows what a "Bulldog Bone ascender/descender" is in the UK. There is some good discussion at Treebuzz about the best way to advance the Bone while ascending. One way is to fasten a bit of throw line to the top release arms, between the top double joint link and the friction link of the top arm, and tether there to a chest attachment (see Sash style chest harness also at Treebuzz)

Will do Ben.

 

I just ordered one of the new RR's as well today but that isn't due in stock till March 2015. By that time I will have forgotten about the shock to the wallet and a brand new CMI RR will be on my doorstep.

 

edit: Just checked my USPS tracking and it says it is in transit to final destination.

 

John did you have to pay any customs charges on it?
