  1. used fair bit mostly for crane work, saves work on moving round the stem. always clip it to your system as mentioned before, defo the go. i find if you lock your arm you can start the cut not bad, can move around abit at the start. easier to use smaller saw but takes more time. i would never climb up with a 88, thats way you are chogging down or crane. make sure you leave it running, starting if a pain in the tree. Key is good work positioning fellas
  2. sweet, i get a pair and then every time i get to the ground i swap boots. perfect! it will be interesting to see what market these guys hit. i dont really see it sorry

    New shoes

    Ended up getting pair of Salwea Rapace and Dachstein Crest HLS EV. think switch them up and they last very long time (hopefully). i dont see the pantin as a issue tbh.

    U-saver

    sold it too a friend in the end, they give me one with a too bing DMM ring on end. so chopped it off and put my own retriever on. But i climbed with my friend everyday this wk and have to say it works very well. the Big ring on end is rather heavy tho and big, but comes well down. Pros and cons i guess. for the money i think its a good buy basically, and everything is Certified.

  20. some key words in the mark.... hoilday Next Week Maybe Drinking Heavily Best of luck mate haha
  21. Yahoooo day 10 done. 1500 pull ups/chin ups in 10 days. fully stoked to have done this, you notice the difference massively at the end. but i think 10 in a row is fully on. hard if you have a big day at work or go out for a few beers. now will be dropping my training down to 5x wk need atleast 2 days rest i think. thanks for the replys and advice, really helps. kinda having something to tick off.
  22. 1.8ton bro, fully epic ay. thats at 62m reach i think, by 58m high
  23. yeah i am full time climber, well i have 3 month off every year. depends on what you class full time haha. but recovery days for body are good even if it just a normals days work.
  24. Jam butties and chicken legs, so like a good combo yeah looking forward to finishing the pull ups. and on to the next, no rest days is pretty brutal. i think better for the body every other day or couple days rest after heavy work out.
  25. cheers guys, was really fun job. crazy high at full reach 58m
