  4. Surely weight and rope diameter plays a big part in how far the rack stretches? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  8. I think Justin would jus laugh at you considering they are selling like hot cakes for the price he sells them at even tho he isn't the cheapest. Sorry mate I just get frustrated when people say go f.r when there are plenty of other decent suppliers in the country, let people make there own mind up. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  10. High scale is it my eyes or does it look like your hitch is barely grabbing, your legs look like they are just floating? Or is that what happens on a hh? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  11. Lol gotta laugh rob I would hate to be you at the end of the day. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  12. Hey rob I'm Amazed how much chip you got on that truck, does that body get pushed about by the wind when your driving? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  13. Hi mate I just had a look at your pictures the body looks OK but it's well worth trying a new cam as it is worn. With the not grabbing just try having more trust with it and being abit more aggressive with it if that makes sense. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  14. No need to strip it, arbtalk app is good for uploading pictures if you have a smart phone or send it to my email if you like,[email protected] Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  15. New cam should do the trick but if the body is really worn then it could be that! Get some pictures up of the body and cam. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  16. That's strange mate can you get a picture up so we can see the wear? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  17. Hi mate when you sit back in your harness do you ease gently back? I have been on a sj a long time and mine does the same but its just down to how you use it, if your gentle it won't bite you need to trust it and snap your weight into your harness for it to grab! You do get used to giving your tail a flick to help it. Changing the cam only makes a difference to it creeping not the way it grabs. Do you have any rubber stops or your krab?

  18. Thanks rich! When I made it had no heat shrink but I do now and managed to cut the heat shrink in half wrap it around shrink it then tape it, it Was awkward:-). Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  19. Hi joe, I climb on velocity 11mm and have done for a while its a fantastic rope for mechanical devices bet when it comes To hitches it doesn't make much difference than having a thicker rope other than being a pain to grip in the wet! A ideal rope for the best of both would be tachyon 11.5 or poison ivy 11.7which is a fantastic rope on a hitch with lots of flex, but also ok if you plan to switch to mechanical.

  20. Hi mate, nothing in the eye, I will just heat shrink it then tape over the heat shrink.
  21. Lol boys I'm fully aware that its not meant to be used srt alone but I was experimenting with it to see what it is like, it grabs fine and releases easily but it's hard to control a smooth descent! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  22. I'm on it mate! I had a go descending on it today srt with no added friction on velocity it was erm pretty fast:-/. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  23. Spiderjack takes alot longer to get to grips wit it, I have both and I would choose the zig zag over a sj. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  24. 0.0 for that hinge Ian ;-) Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  25. I would like to see a drop test with a zig zag SRT without any added friction, maybe we can have a whip around for a zz,and see if Dan and ian would do the honours of testing it for us as they have experience of doing it with the rw etc. Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
