  1. rupe used a similar set up but with a prussik, and a pulley above the prussik with the cord attached. the pulley would release the prussik
  2. thats pretty cool drew, thanks for sharing
  3. it IS a really comfy harness, i know a few people with them. its specially nice if you're the sort of climber who likes to hang around a little....ideal for the bigger built climber also. bit too bulky for my personal liking but undoubtedly one of the most comfy sit harness's on the market IMO
  4. took this little beauty for a test drive today, think i might buy, it corners like a demon
  5. I dont really understand the ins and outs of lease hire but have heard it can be a bit of a minefield. could someone share their knowledge on the subject for myself and anyone else interested....and also is either one better regarding tax?

  7. 9 and 10 years old, i'd be happier being in control of them myself personally rather than worrying if they clipped themselves in each time

  17. i get nervous watching other professionals climbing without any safety....i can understand you not wanting your kids too!
  18. I was working for a regular customer today. They have a large corsican pine on their boundary, beautiful specimen, very healthy crown with no signs of decay or included/weak unions. The main trunk appears healthy with no signs of any fungi growing at the base. The tree does lean out towards the road. Anyway, the customer had a letter from the council reading somewhere along the lines that a member of the public walked past the house and noticed the tree looked dangerous and reported it, the council then asked "when" they were having the tree down? The customer is worried as they really dont want to lose the tree. I advised that the tree was healthy and other than the lean towards the road could see no imminent danger. Can the local council make them fell this tree? Obviously i explained to them now the tree has been raised as a danger and they've been told about it they are liable, also no consultant is going to tell them its safe these days. your thoughts?
