  1. I think they are mobile link from YouTube as I'm getting them of the iPhone. I'll post them again when I am at my mac.
  2. Try this one for the shadow techniques... YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. Fast forward past the talking.
  3. Another... YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. Do the links work? Posting them from my iPhone.

    Muay Thai

    I know there are a few who train in MT or have an interest. I have a few mates over in Thailand who post fight on sites like Facebook etc. Some good fight are posted and if there raving about them then they usually are. I'll post them here for anyone interested... YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
  5. I guess these things need looking into. The ability for a grounds to be able to lower the climber is good for srt access. A whole different aPproach is needed now work positioning is being incorporated into srt climbing.
  6. Ian, if your gonna go for the base tie that the grounds is capable of lowering the I juried climbed. All good from safety point of view. I presume as you are that safety conscious you will be cuttin with a lanyard attached locally to the tree? How will the groundie get you down if you are side stropped to the tree when you are unconscious and need rescuing?
  7. Just you wait. In the meantime, why not get a Sugoi? Thicker steel, sharPer and longer.
  8. Lanyard, Silky, Ho 2 Ho, Throwbag and mini krab, Caritool on one side to clip things on if I get them sent up and one of them snap hook things on the other side for the same reason. I do have one of them bags to store my Lanyard in but TBH it is a PITA and fell to bits after a couple of climbs. That was 20 odd quid well spent.
  9. Mulletastic!
  10. So am I. LOL. Maybe I have spent enough time with Mark to understand his own version of the English Language. You wanna hear it after a few beers, it becomes even more undecipherable.
  11. He means Baggable, as in throw bag. He is just a Northerner, forgive him.
  12. It wasn't a criticism mate, I thought that would be what you had LOL. I have had a bit a trouble with the 16 strand recently. Snapped 2 fids but eventually pulled through. I made a couple of spider legs outta tenex. A lot easier to splice. Nice work all the same mate.
  13. Nice work John. Just curious why you used xtc over tenex/yalex etc?
  14. Graham, I agree with you 100%. I also feel that the post by Hawthorn is extremely presumptuous. Hawthorn, you believe in God. Good for you if it feels right, then do it. I, on the other hand do not. I don't have a God shaped void in my life that needs filling. In the words of Charlie Brooker, 'There are many deities and Gods that are believed in. I believe in none, you believe in 1. Your almost as Athiest as me.'
  15. Just speak to anyone who sells the harness, they will either have them in stock or can order a replacement for it. I got one from FR Jones.
  16. When I bought mine from HBros, I ordered the pin and the one in my pic turned up along with the one in your pic. 2 options.
  17. yeah I got that pin aswell... did you not get this one. Easier to remove and such like. Pic to follow.
  18. I would stick another krab in there and attach the tether of the WR to it. But I have got big hands.
  19. Especially at Christmas, I get a little laugh at the groundies when they look confused when I ask for the 'Ho, 2 Ho! to be sent up.
  20. The topping bit was a bit tongue in cheek. You do have a passion for the P word though. How about linking it in with the traditional woodcrafts / woodland management of old. You have plenty of pictures from BB.
  21. I had to get rather stern after the 3rd 9pm visit from a CICA rep... I had cancelled the policy 4 months earlier but they would not listen. In the end I told them to take a run and jump, otherwise... It seemed to do the trick.
  22. The beauty of Pollards. Do a talk on topping trees Tony.
  23. Plymouth?
  24. So Butler, if you don't mind me asking, what flavour of Christianity are you and your family?
