I cant personally think of anything more frustrating than having two lines. All a complete nonsense. Seemingly with no evidence. I can't see how its possible to have 2 sperate anchors on a single lead tree! If the other line is a foot lower keeping equal tension will be nye impossible. Im certainly non compliant so is everyone I've worked with, some being 30 years served climbers! I suggest the aa and hse do us a proper demonstration.

Become a good groundsman and in your spare time become a good climber when i started seemingly ages ago now, i used to climb in a local forest and got really good at limb walks and swings. But as the saying goes, start low and slow see if you have a local recreational tree climbing group near by.

Isnt the simplest solution to this towing an asap or duck on a second line much like irata

Just checked mine its dated 2013, I'll be using my camp non stop now

Rubber mallet works well, also double apline is easier to untie

I would be looking at a sensible reduction and thin, pollard it and it will almost certainly be back to where you started in a few years or a year. Last sensible reduction i did on my parents lime lasted 5 years then the neighbor had it pollarded year on its bushier than before.

To chuck in another option, ive got a camp gt access with shoulder straps i bought it as i was doing loads of abseiling work (irata) i really like it, previous to that had and still do occasionally use my treemotion. The gt access i find really comfy well set up gear loops and legs straps i also like the shoulder straps when running a big saw. The shoulder straps come of really easily aswell.

I know the are pretty well and will say that the woodland is noticeable from the road. i also feel the council are very fair in regards to trees. -

take out the inner and sew them into another pair of trousers

Now i can agree with that entirely

Need somone who would like to tryout my new tether for the rw ive been using mine for about 3 months. i like it would like a second opinion before i make a bunch. If your interested let me know. want to know how often you use your RW and what length eye to eye you would like. Many thanks
-
its like telling somone you must wear a seat belt. its really down to them. if it works for you cool man. i used to off road (motorbikes) i used to ride stupidly aggressively with no added protection one of my knees doesn't work properly when its cold. but i chose that, i now accept it/ live with it. and i wouldnt advice/tell anyone to do anything they arnt cool with. unless new to the sport or activity.
-
well that was rather unexciting. worked perfectly.
-
Dont disagree with that. but i was self taught by watching guys like you. if i strop in its normally in a position where i can reach more than one cut
-
i agree. its just being complacent. i find i do what i can to get my self in to a safe position, if you can strop in easily your probably stable and not over stretching or twisting . but i do feel that sometimes its not always needed.
-
I've made one. But was furniture grade. Aiming is the hard part

I bought the weaver saw scabbard from Honies seems to work well. Gets it first tryout tomorrow
-
I stopped looking when I put on a tree motion.

STATIC R44 11.0 - SingingRock.cz Did a long line of oaks ground acnhor had a about 2mtr left over on the base anchor, when at full length couldn't feel any stretch. I like climbing on it not sure how abrasion resistant it will prove to be. but it last 1/2 the time of arb rope its cheap.
-
i use a rope made by singing rock its 11.7 same specs as arb rope. ITs strange though as it feels stiff can be pushed up like a snake to a point but runs really smooth and knots nicely. haven't noticed any twisting or milking. i bought 200ft for £80
-
Does anyone know where i can get a bundle of cheaper carabiners preferably steel for zip lining Cheers
