  1. nice video, I dunno if Im a grumpy old fart but I would have been cursing my groundies if they didnt let it run a few metres.
  2. why does my pet rock get quite chatty after Ive had a few beers.?
  3. I asked the boss for a couple of cmi ultrascenders for sit stand srt and he more than delivered with a marbar system.Ive assembled them, but have yet to try them out, any regular users here or any tips. The only complaint I have so far is that the instructions are written so small that Im considering buying my first pair of glasses. oh by the way the avatar is a c/saw carving I found on a japanese site, its a man about to cook his eggs for brekkie, cool eh:thumbup1:
  4. We usually call them stringbarks up here but I know what ya mean.I see your online, us downunder folk might have the forum to ourselves at the mo, I just got done replying to ya on the members forum too.
  5. I gave my dvds to my offsider and groundies to take home and study. I told them to watch them at least 3 times each until they are familiar with the content and I also take the book to work for reference, so yeah its been good value.
  6. For a lightweight speedline or zipline a truckers hitch will give you a quick 2 to 1 tensioning.
  7. I realise youve done the job by now,but when I rig bluegum(smoothbark) I rig the pieces with a marlin hitch and a clovehitch tied off with 2 half hitches as opposed to say a half hitch and a running bowline,I prefer cow hitches for the block if the sling is long enough.
