    not so simple if there doing tip reductions, you then need to select a anchor point that is not only load bearing but able to support 2 bodies

    good point rich, its also got me thinking, what if something happens when accesing by body thrusting or footlocking. people seem to harp on about how important it is to climb on a lowerable system when using srt but what about the techniques that are approved and used for our industry that arnt lowerable from the ground is it just a case of people over complicating things again, or will we end up all having to climb srt with no lanyard and 2 lines that can both be lowered from the ground

    dont have breakfast, usually have a cup of tea when i get up, then stop at 10 for some breakfast. if its a big tree i might have a chocolate biscuit or something before i start. occasionally we will stop and get a bacon roll if we are passing the cafe, but thats usually only on a special occasion like a friday

    i have 4 cast blocks and 3 or 4 of the redirect style, and can safely say they all get used regularly. its rare that we only install one block in a tree, far better to spred the load. the last cast isc pulley i bought was 85 pounds, it doesnt take long for the daily cost of that to become pence
