  1. I've got a camelback thought they weren't worth the money but was given one and it is awesome I would definitely pay for one if I had to buy a new one I use it for jobs when I know I'm gonna be on the ground all day. There is enough space to fit in some food aswell, and it's got cheststraps so doesn't fall off I also found that I didn't even notice it was there. Only one downside the mouth piece does tend to get saw dust stuck to as its wet.
  2. Honey bros go on the ART spares page it's the same size ball
  3. I can't remember the first time I was allowed to use an axe but I must av been 3 n all my cousins have grown up the same I got my first pen knife when I was 5 and that slowly progressed as I got older. I remember the first time I drove my granddads 4x4 (shogun I have now come to my senses n got a real 4x4) I was 6/7 thankfully I was tall for my age n could just about reach the pedals!!
  4. If its not setting itself when you ascend then it will be to do with your not generally I find that trying as many different amounts of wraps and braids. I tend to tie mine so it is leaning more towards not setting itself for two reasons: 1. It's good practice to set the knot everytime and this becomes second nature after enough use. 2. If it is tied so it is like that it's a much more sensitive faster (sporty) knot:D hope this is of some help. Oh yeah the other thing is gettin armor prus!!! It's the best:)

  19. Awesome!! it will be interesting to see how it stands up to wear being that AP i the best wearing friction cord in my experience:D
  20. Haha this is gonna be fun to keep an eye on!! Now I'm not an expert and never will be by any means "Big Joe" but surely from what you said there that means that there should be NO trees in the urban environment and all the ones in that environment should be felled because NO tree is in the right place in an urban environment. Right?
  21. Nice one!! Expensive lanyard rope lol I like the look of AP in blue pretty cool!
  22. Yeah used rope is always much more difficult that stitching does make a massive difference Hope it goes well for ya
  23. Have you got any pics and what rope is it? It's usually quite a struggle but you get there in the end but some times you get a bunch up of core at the crossover that needs to be stitched but if you show some pics might be able to help and if not then some of the other guys on here will definitely be able to help
