Just when you think you're at the top of your game...
Pete Mctree replied to Steve Bullman's topic in Video forum
Did the stabilisers have any dynamic properties? As the dyneema does not i wondered if there was an issue with bringing the stem to an abrupt halt after removing or rigging a piece, or if the natural flex of the timber absorbed some of the force? -

An epic ringing down session for sure with some gentle rigging. A joy to watch. Makes you reconsider what is climable -
I guess the fact that the pulley doubles the load at the rigging point. Depends if the piece is being held or let run. Multiple pulleys can reduce the load niceley provided that the angles are kept relativley small

looking a bit skanky that tree carl. Gently does it on the rigging I guess lol

I might leave the odd peg for rope setting or a foothold for knocking a top over, but i'm damn carefull where they are left. If in doubt I will just clean the stem

Best wish to your mate and I hope he recovers quickly. It's a heads up to us all no to become complacent or careless. This industry demands concentration and care to keep you in one piece at the end of the working day

When the sky is blue, the waves are breaking and the ladies are pretty, I must admit my dedication towards work does waiver a little.
