Bulldog Bone in action

[Rich Rule]

John, I want one of them! Can you knock one up for me and I'll pay in Strongbow?

[Rich Rule]

Had a little blast on Tachyon today. Can't really offer a firm opinion yet as it was lashing it down all day! What fun.

 

John have you noticed my advanced tethering point? A bit of used zingit and a ring of one of the good ladies handbags!

Made a new tending point, credit to Dmc for the idea. Seems to work pretty well

Why so technical?

Would a short length of para cord not do the same thing?

 

There's no way that's spliced anyway. I've seen the size of your fingers.

Wow! What an amazing piece of work! I really hate to be the bearer of bad news but things can change fast with new tools. A better spot has been found for the tender. It needs to be on just the top arms, in between the two upper links. I drilled a hole and set a metal pin for mine. Others have used bungee or throw line.

What are the differences between the Bulldog bone and Rope Runner?

Are they both midline attachable? Any up or downside in comparison with each other?

[Rich Rule]

Not got a rope runner yet or climbed on one but have a Bulldg bone. Very nice to climb on so far and getting better each time. Probably a combination of getting used to the sensitivity and the ropes and device running in.

Hi rich could I ask , if you where doing a short climb to another higher limb & it wasn't worth clipping to your neck/ chest tether , would you just take your weight of the rope & devise and pull your tail up to push the bone up ?? I've only had one go on my bone & it was raining / cold & abit push to get job done

[Rich Rule]

If it is just small shunts to a higher limb etc then i would probably put into pantin and then advance the bone by hand.

 

More often than not I can't be arsed with that so I just pull myself up on the rope and then tend as though it was a vt on a HC climber system. I know this isn't ergonomical but it is a habit I need to get out of.

I am currently out of stock with the Bulldog Bones, but a new batch of Bones is in the works!
