  9. Cheers Ian.That was me rigging that poplar and another guy as we had 2 rigging point's on the pieces otherwise the drop would of hit the house plus it had a good lean on it.Haha I'm still trying to master the spinning of the logs to make them land flat.have to push down and spin them at the same time.
  10. Hi Ian,My understanding of it is that its the only obvious way to take the wind sail out of the trees(as they are tall and spindly)Yes they where all spiked which is the only productive way of doing them.We could get 2 or 3 from one tree as well.Maybe Reg has a different opinion.Thanks
  11. Yes we wind-firmed them (topping) as the client was a bit paranoid after a storm we had.

  19. Maybe so.. As he said he is new to srt so its easy to get sucked into to much info that is out there,best for him is to stick with a simple anchor to get used to climbing with a new technique and adjust to his skill set..IMO
  20. Pinto tie off works best for me.Keep it simple and don't get sucked in by all the gear junkies that complicate things.
  21. How do you tension your zip lines..on the beach and in general?
