Dak replied to sixstrings's topic in SRT (Single Rope Technique)
Sixstrings, I'm in staffs if you want a rec climb got loads of sweet trees to play in. What you want to know SRT for access or work positioning? Can run you through both if you can get across, I'm just off the A5 nr Gailey. -
Agreed with Ewan.

Theres a dude in France climbing on 9mm Marlow prussic cord..... He's a quality climber.

The insides of the fruit does, but no, they don't smell.

Cheers Mark I'm sure i'll come up with something else soon enough. Running out of Alt-J Tunes

ROB: Yep sorry buddy! Paul: Looks like you had fun, especially with the misses!. Did you check out any of the "big trees" while you where over there?. David: Diddley squat on the baobab. One or two of the yellowwoods had some brackets, I'll see if i can dig out a pic for you at some point. Worcs: That was me on the act safe first time round, Drew on it the next shot I think. Ye great album, It was my "soundtrack to Africa" while I was out there before we started climbing so it seemed fitting to use it. Glad you all enjoyed it.

These trees where planted in early 1900's, they have grown stupidly quick! Tallest known planted trees in the world, and Tallest known in Africa for sure. The video was actsafe to 62m, We ascended on rope wrenches and set the actsafe line for drew. I'm sure a video of his knee will appear soon enough, lots more to come we just want to do a good job of editing it all!

Mpumalunga province, South Africa

We climbed this beauty and set aline for Drew on the actsafe as he had a nasty infected spider bite on his knee. This is his view ascending 62m up.... first of many... [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vD3TIs2EdWE]81m - YouTube[/ame] Hope you enjoy, Dak

Ask in your local arbshop, or ring them. Mine gave me the offcuts for pennies! I'd even go for the rigging offcuts as larger dia is looser therefore easier... Good luck

I got my hollow fids from samson in the states.. They are useless for double braid under 14mm in my opinion, (maybe loose 12/13mm). Piano wire wins for db!
