They are ingenious. 

 

I'm not a huge fan of rope grabs, I wildly prefer prusiks for a load of different reasons, but combined with a pulley like that it's a really elegant little unit. Quick and easy little personal haul system.

 

Found them for 85-120 quid, might get one as an early Christmas present for myself.

Marks not in your gang 42 he is big enough to speak up for himself

To be fair, the fact that you've been able to list so many, even with a slight overlap of some topics, suggests the opposite of hyperfixation. 

I think his problem lies elsewhere, though that's just a matter of opinion.

I’ll step out now as thats 3-4 nipping at the heels again. I’ve no real problems as such, the list pretty much covered all the topics covered over a long period on various threads. Anyway you SP and 42 can relax now I’m off.

Wow, that was easy.

Anyway, in the news today apparently Simone Biles is pretty good at this sport? I don't really follow the Olympics, but this was bloody impressive:

 

 

She had a bit of a stumble upon landing which lost her some points, but I believe one judge said that "as long as she lands somewhere inside the building, she will have the highest score."

 

Strong stuff.

Bro, do you have someone there to show you how to post links instead of a screenshot? 

I can get my 79 year old mother to talk you through it if you find the technology challenging 👍

 

Just while I am waiting for the carrots to cook (late dinner today). 'Screen shots' via MS Paint. Simples.
