Hey noob stop pinching my mentor Rupe . :lol:

Rupe that is proper cool and may well take you up on that offer . Ive done the pulley thing only with a blakes though . I do fancy the Distel / Shwabish . I,ll take it slow as changing your game at 38 may be like taking the horse to water . Teaching old dogs and all that .

Rupe that comment has made my day . Cheers Paul . I always knew there were better systems .Its just making an effort to change from something your so familiar with . All these years on the prussic and blakes . Doh I need sectioned .

Surely you dont take the jet boil to work . Are the jackets lined ?
-
Yeaa haaa All ordered now Cinch , rope grab , pulleys etc . Also some decent 10mm rope for the cinch . Booked some good trees in after crimbo . Hey did you ever get one of those jackets from GO Outdoors ? My climbing has been the same for years. If it aint broke dont fix it . Some of these guys on here have just opened my eyes . Ive been stagnant for so long cant wait now . Will have a few days playing with them before going back to work . Whats your climbing system ?

No worries Liam . It just takes a bit of time and before you know it you will be sick of all the small trees and be cravin the big uns like Gavin off here . Glad your getting better . I,m just starting to try and make things a bit less of a strain . I tryed the pulley behind the blakes on a decent birch the other day quite liked it . I even had a play at our yard on a Ash tree using the hand over hand realy liked it again . Only prob was the massive pulley I used . So I am investing a few hundred quid on new kit cams pulleys .

Thanks very much wirecore flip line it is . Well tbh a fellow tree worker uses one and has done for a while . He comes from a climbing back ground ( industrial ) rope access and he loves it . I better tell him what steve said . cheers Matty
-
Yeah valid point there as the cams are quite serated . Ok for hauling up a big saw . So all good for a wire core flip line .
-
Hey Liam I,m just gonna try and make it a little bit easier on the old bod Hows ya back ?
-
Surely the ropeman mk2 rope grab would be ok as a positioner with a stopper knot . Or am I just waiting to get laughed off this thread . Please be gentle as I,m just coming out of the prussic age
-
I mentioned it as someone elsewhere on the forum was using one . I,m not familiar with them .whats the main use ? Back up for srt ?
-
Cost of the eddy may be a factor . It is a lot bigger and heavier than the cinch . Why not use petzl grigri . Getting my cinch after crimbo and loads of other new goodies well excited . Anybody use the wild country ropeman mk 1 or 2 as a positioner .

You could just get a swing check pulley from Treeworker £13 / 15 . Its rated at 35 kn which is 10 kn more than the art one
