<p>Hi Joe, quick question, do you recommend the petal am'D with the spiderjack dyneema conversion. Apologies in advance if you have answered this a thousand times.</p>

Does anyone know of a triple lock HMS carabiner with a barrel that fits through the eye on a small DMM swivel.
-
Hap Johnson, if only I was that good.
-
Worked a lot in Frankfurt over the last ten years. It's good work, can be quite intense at times. Better pay then the uk. There seems to be a demand for climbers at the moment.
-
Nicely done!
-
Just started using a length, seems very good for the price. 10.6mm seems ok for access, not so sure about the RW. I,ll be using it more over the next 3 weeks, will keep you posted.
-
Do you use dynastat as an ascent line aswell as a lanyard. If so, how do you rate it. Been thinking about replacing my snakebite with some from freeworker. I got to use a workmates recently and was impressed.
-
That sounds interesting Marcus. How much?
-
Recently started using the ART positioner, its a great bit of kit. Can be a bit jumpy on single line though.
-
Pinto Rigs are great re-direct pulleys unless your going big.
-
snakebite is anything but bouncy. I,ve used it for a few years now, on my second rope. Its a great access line, very tough and easy to get hold of in UK.
-
I,m not a great fan. Here is one we tackled recently, turned out to be hollow.
-
You can buy snakebite from vermeer uk or what ever they are called now, could be B-Trac. They import sherrill kit and didn,t charge for postage when i used them. It is not CE marked as far as I know. It is a great rope though. If you want to use Globe and footlock, check out CELOCK.
-
I,ve been thinking about getting one since I first saw it. looks like a great idea. I could live without the snap though. How are you finding yours Steve?

New Pfanner Arborist Chainsaw Trousers Coming Soon!
Qtip replied to Yve_Clark's topic in General chat
Is the upgraded technical stretch air fabric used to make pfanner,s new climbing trousers aswell? -
Thanks for the replies guys, some great ideas and advice.
-
The tree was windthrown and had 2 large lateral roots on the tension side still intact. We wobbled the tree with a rope to see how firm it was, it seemed relatively stable or as stable as a tree like that could be. I then climbed up as far as I dared and dismantled the crown.
-
Says the man hanging from a roof without a harness. It had happened a few days earlier and the cross means fell.
-
Would you climb this? The tree was originally bigger, too big to be felled in one without damaging a metal fence and a platform was not availiable.
-
does anyone know where you can preorder one from and how much they cost? Seems like a good idea. Shame its not made out of carbon fibre, that would be very bling.
-
Are you sure about this Adam?
-
Thanks Adam, sounds like a very well thought out gizmo.
-
Does anyone know if the cams can be replaced when they inevitably ware out?
-
Why don,t you ask them what they are interested in learning. Sorry if this sounds sarcastic, its not meant to.
-
On my second sterling HTP snakebite. Great rope, no stretch, wears well and costs a lot less the an AP access line.
