Just a thank you to justin (FR jones) who has put up £150 in vouchers for prizes, :thumbup1:

wellies fair very well, saws tend to skid off! not sure about that, but for trousers they have to be wash 6 times and still pass, you would have though there would be somthing similar.

i'll check, but i think its on the 8thMay at eastern collage. the board of the ISA has agreed that full time students who help out/voulnteer/tec for the UK/I TCC weekend will get free student ISA membership for the year:thumbup1:

Hi all, Thought it might make it easier to make the entry forms etc available here with a one click, so you can get registered. It looks like a very good turnout, but until you all register etc., we don't know how many places will be available for students/college entries etc. Also need to know fairly quickly for catering and t shirts. So the sooner you register your place the better. You will need to go to the ISA website to pay for your place on line.Tree Climbing Competitions :: ISA UK&I Chapter The prize pool is looking good at close to £3000 in cash and vouchers with loads of goodies as well. Of course, the main prize is representing your country both in the European Team and at the Worlds in Oregon this year - no other event can offer that ! Have checked out the facilities at Shuttleworth for campers and there are toilets, and showers, but no electricity for hooking up camper vans. BBQ's 18" off the ground allowed, and you could have a fire in a 'pit' as long as that is 18" off the ground as well, but no fires on the ground. Click on the links and register, you can download the Equip Check List as well and complete it ready to bring with you for Gear check, open from Friday lunchtime until late, and for an hour on Saturday morning from 7.00 as we hope to start the comp at 9.00, so turning up at 9.00 it's doubtful that you will get in.

Hi Pete you going to bring your truck to the UK/I tcc at shuttleworth? plenty of space if you want a bit of a display:thumbup1:

flat bed sherpa pickup, wooden body. 026 and plenty of three strand rope which was used for climbing , lowering and then tieing down the load, (chippers were not common when i started:blushing:)

because it was a freind using my computer :sneaky2:

my name is alistair magee- wanted some work in sweden this summer, if your interested my email address is [email protected]/ 0044 7886 028830

dont use gaffa tape to rap the sling as the glue can affect it. if you have some spare climbing rope cut a peice the lenght of the sling take the core out and thread it over, tape the ends to fraying, this will allow you to slide the cover back to inspect the sling and rotate it.

that's age and waist size:lol:

I'll see if we can come up with somthing, if we have time

evrey ones a winner who takes part :001_rolleyes:

the isa, you interested?

get rid of the 10mm rock rope and buy a arborists rope

talking of shirts, any preferance on colour this time, thinking of yellow so you can be seen!

i only get into triple mediums now adays

i think the shrinking wardrobe will stop me from wearing my very old ones:lol::lol:

As alway, its the taking part and learning thats important at ISA tcc's, as many on here know, so hopefully we will see plenty of new faces, as well as the old (coming up to 20 years of comps in the UK:001_rolleyes:) here this year. There will be a novice category for first timers, but that wont stop you from winning with the top climbers get places at the european championship and world's, and a cash prize pool of over £3000 and plenty goodies for every one, it shaping up for a great weekend:thumbup:

if you go to the isa web site you can enter online, to make sure of your place. it also helps with the catering if we have a good idea of numbers, as Climbers will get lunch and an evening meal (saturday) In the bar!!!
