RW and Zigzag

[Mark Bolam]

Because my Cougar Puke is fluffy as hell now and I cba to retie a VT or thread a ZZ through every other climb.

The gear basically just lives on the rope.

A new full fat Cougar Blue wouldn't hurt.

Is that ease of changeover in terms of removing from and installing back on a rope Mark?

No mate, switching between SRT and Ddrt.

It is possible now, but it is a pita.

Same here. Tachyon with ZZ on for DRT, Drenaline with VT & RW for SRT. And an old bit for XTC Plus with a VT for sappy shite.

 fair enough, your kit probably lives in your van. I've got to unload and load mine twice a day so can't be arsed with two lines.

I used to leave some of my kit in my truck some nights, but since the guy I climb for was broken into on Monday night I think I might change that habit...

He had everything loaded up in his Disco ready for big dismantle on Tuesday, including £300 worth of brand spanking new rigging kit. Scrotes disabled the car alarm, smashed window and had the lot.

Well, I think I'm pretty much converted! Got over a few issues that I now think are not even issues! 

 

Got my head round base anchors, top anchors, moving TIP and redirects inc removable ones. Cant imagine doing much Ddrt but I probably will for small stuff thats not worth throwlining. 

 

Also got an ms150. How things have changed! Can hardly lift my 200T now!

The bit about removable redirects - this is somthing i havent experimented with, but must be a game changer, especially being able to retrieve at a distance. What are the best methods?

[Rupe]

Removable in the tree I haven't quite sorted yet!!
