  3. being using SJ on tachyon for last 2 weeks and like it alot but miss my friction hitch. def gonna try and stick with it. havent tried it with swivel yet, finding it alot harder to use with left hand.

  7. im gonna try and make it,would like to compete but ive got a shed load of homemade splices
  8. yeah m8, done the double beaner dyneema sling thing.works well. def gonna keep with it
  9. been on the SJ for the last week and its been good fun but surely makes you appreciate the skills in joe's video. i like it for lots of reasons but appreciate its gonna take a wee while to use it at the speed im looking for. its def like starting over again,bring on the quick decents.
  10. nothing wrong wit the speed of that filming steve, smooth as even the pendlum is free flowing,whatever that is. oops
  11. sweet as mat.just seen your pics. any vids ???
  12. if you think that video is not real time you might need your eyes testing barefoots ive been trying one out with tachyon steve and have not come across any glazing but have a few big pops to do this week so its gonna be put through the hard test. also think the velocity that joe climbs on in the vid would be ideal for quick decents especially if your goona speed it up great bit of kit but not worthy of small to medium trees.
  13. that sure is some disgusting looking ivy covered oak their john. NASTY AS BRO
  14. sorry another question,memory is terrible. is that yale arrow frog in SJ pic and velocity in SJ video. many thanks.
  15. just seen pics on into trees link. will def be interesting to see how fluid SJ works in wide spreading oaks. just got mine too trial,def gonna stick with it untill im past the jerk jerk stage. another toy, when will it end.
  16. Hey Joe have you any still pics of double beaner setup on SJ or anyone else. cheers
  17. 10mm static on a cinch is very sexy,the problem you will have bill is finding a hitch cord to suit 10mm ?? for your vt and pulley.try the cinch m8 not too expensive and has many uses. as for the length and storage,the small rope bags are def suitable for the job but as seen in the joe harris vid the retractable device has got to be the ultimate storage choice and im sure given the next 6 months somebody over here will be selling these.
  18. i saw kia martin using one in NZ and yes they look very effective but a little bulky.
  19. im gonna design or copy what ive seen of the retracting lanyard and distribute under the name.. ..????? wait for it yeeesss STEIN

  22. not really a gd represantation ????? eeerrrrmmmmm
  23. what john turnball improved.naaah
  24. nearly ordered 1 last yr but gonna borrow a nearly new 1 this week hopefully. give it time im told and it works like a dream. like steve ive spent plenty of time with hitches,really engoying my knut at the mo but the spiderjack looks like a lot of fun to learn. hitches or mechanical,that video is pure class. hes an english guy living in oz,he finished second to scott forest last wk end in the sydney prelims. will be interesting to see how he gets on in the worlds this year with it.
  25. CHECK THIS OUT VERY VERY SMOOTH. ENJOY.
