there was some footage of the boat in action but it was pretty crap...... one of the guys fell in too....i heard a bang, looked down and he was in up to his chest....nice stagnant water.....i laughed like hell! unfortunately no footage. colin went home and got changed, and also had a glass of whisky to get the taste out...swallowed a mouth full of the moat when he went in lol

the closest it got to the lines tensioned was probably 2ft....but obviously as soon as the weight was on the line it was well clear......had to get as close as possible otherwise the stuff would have just ended up in the drink

as if yes not every bit went smoothly obviously. i did include one of the gaffs in the original edit, but the video came in at 12 minutes and had to reduce it to come within youtubes 10 minute time frame. doesnt make for interesting viewing watching me faffing about trying to get limbs unstuck either:biggrin:

dont be silly mate, its a request. not mandatory. i appreciate many of you dont do your own websites and dont expect anyone to go to the expense of getting someone to put it up specially

i'd disagree with this statement..... as i understand it(with my limited knowledge of rope strucutre) kernmantle ropes have their strength in the core unlike arb ropes which is spread between the core and cover.....rock climbing ropes are kernmantle, but the only arb rope i know of which is specifically kernmantle is the New England Fly...and maybe Donaghy's NRG. im ready to be enlightened though by you people in the know discuss

cheers guys

your web guy would be able to sort that easy enough. regarding selling your kit from your site...im not sure the effort and finances involved would make it worthwhile when you have a better(and larger) target audience here that you can sell to for free?

Some of you have links to your websites in your signatures...whilst this is fine for your business websites(so long as it doesnt infringe the forum guidelines or lead to a website competing with the forum sponsors), as you know link building creates a better presence for us all in google, therefore it would be expected(and appreciated) for you to reciprocate this from your own websites thanks

chris, my comment regarding hms krabs wasnt to suggest they dont fit, more that the ovals are the recommended krab

you can tie it absolutely anyway you want. it just becomes a slightly different knot. sometimes i even put a cross over inbetween the braids...making it an xt

naturally its you being daft:001_tongue: it doesnt look like ive done much to be fair...luckily i have the video footage to prove there was some substantial sized lumps removed
-
thats fantastic....hope you have a better class of people over there though, some lout would set that on fire in a jiffy over here
-
i cant remember, im sure ive seen that done though at a comp one year....think they may have drilled a hole thinking about it. i use a sawpod these days so its not an issue.
-
if i remember rightly...a tiewrap will fit in the slot there

varied from tree to tree. couple had to have couple limbs out of the tips, but most of them, up to about 70ft i guess
-
so the hitch climber is designed to work best with oval krabs....by your reasoning, should they also redesign the product for those users who dont wish to replace their hms krabs?

at least this isnt going round in circles

so what you're saying is you've been sat on the toilet for the past hour and telling your missus you're constipated
