  1. I've got a couple of Petzl throw bags, Stein cube and spliced Zing-it. Can't hit anything one handed though!
  2. Honestly, Pop down and see Jonesie. I've got lots from him in the past and he's more helpful than anyone local in my experience
  3. Whereabouts in Hertfordshire mate?
  4. Interesting. I would have thought that it would've been a thinner rope than 13mm. I know the Zig zag worked better thinner. I'll have to have a look at one in the flesh but it would have to be brilliant to replace my current lanyard!
  5. Wifi kills it doesn't it. I've ordered a speed charger and 2 extra batteries from amazon for about 20. I'll let you know if they're any good. Nice vid Reg
  6. As I understood the OP, he was describing a system that has 2 legs of rope and a prussic on each which would mean that he could footlock up, moving both hitches(1:1), then if required, you could adjust one hitch while the other remains static and turn the whole system into a DdRT system. If not, I'll get back in my box!
  7. Will it be possible to use your own rope Barry?
  8. Any time mate. Make sure you use a stiff tether with the wrench. Makes it run a lot smoother.
  9. Be interested in the results from Hadleigh. Think the taper and bury are longer but let Drew confirm
  10. Blonde dreads? He'd look like the dude from the Matrix!
  11. I have a unicender you can borrow for a couple of weeks if you want to have a play with it mate. Its cracking!
  12. They chose a lovely few days for it!! Good video
  13. Good man!! You're as sad as me now!!
  14. Most users online 47:laugh1:
  15. We got a mate of ours 2 black fist dildos and forced him to wear a Union jack suit with them duct taped to his arms. We found this hilarious for exactly 30 seconds. It took him 30 seconds for him to realise that he could use them to beat the life out of us.
  16. If you can slightly modify one of the pantins so its around knee height. You'll need a footloop and a bit of elastic, you'll have a HAAS system.
  17. If Mark can't get all if it, you're welcome to drop it off the the college mate.
  18. Can't take credit for this one, watched Dan Curtis use this to good effect. Tie a slip knot and clip a throw bag onto the rope above the knot. Will add enough weight to the system to allow you to climb SRT from the ground and a groundie can easily remove it.
  19. Next time you are in McDonald's, grab a load of straws. Place them over your chainsaw files so you can carry files in your trousers. Saves ruining the pockets more than necessary
  20. I'll get a photo tomorrow mate. Be interesting to see what you could do!
  21. Very cool. I've got a Tsurugi, otherwise I would have one.
  22. Whoops!!
  23. Start a thread and let people bid on it mate:001_smile:
