matt.p

Its a bit of where you put the rope guild and a ART Double Snapper 3 is a realy good idear as you can lower is down with out smashing it on the ground and if it gets stuck you can pull it back up to free it...never put my rope guide in with out one. matt

Ayup Gerbutt.... i dont see it at the way forward but another option...no friction yes but no 2 to 1 advantage ether i think its harder work...but give it a go hey!

SRT aint all that mate...we use it for access into big trees then switch over to DRT for the work..but a lot of the time i use the DRT frog system..fastish and not a lot of kit.

I have climbed in Cs for 8 years and for the last 3 climbed in As...yes you are more more vulnerable in As but i think you know you cant cut any corners at all! and thats helps.

Thay are a LOT cooler too, like most things its down to good work positioning.

thanks paul!

Well jon is a very ''my word is my bond'' type of lad which is a good thing.(most of the time)

His work is of a very high standard and he is very professional.

But i think 12 months with no phone call to remind them i a very long time, a call the night befor would have saved you a lot of crap as you know.

and is it going to be worth the hassle? i think not.........matt.

PS yes jon im good ta...moving down to london to start my new job in 3 weeks! swinging in the london plane's ha
