  1. Hi guys we are after a groundy/2nd climber to help 2 days a week for the next few months.the work will all be based in a forest,so lovely this time of year. Stansted, Essex. Need climbing experience but don't need tobe a pro,pm me for further details. Cheers joe.
  2. Exactly! Hopefully someone else can put there stamp on it and help it evolve.
  3. It's not perfect but it works, it's a stepping stone! You get a little friction when it pushes against the rw but with a little cut out on the pipe I think it will be better.
  4. Hi guys thought I would share my sj set up with rw. As you tend the sj the tube tends the rw it works really well.
  5. Hi guys would anyone be interested in a rec climb this Saturday? The location is near stansted airport but I can't say the exact location for certain reasons. If interested throw me a pm and I will tell your more info. Thanks alb
  6. Iv recently replaced my clutch and my body is really worn so I'm getting a lot of creep I just lock my line off around my brake lever.
  7. I'm pretty sure they have red stalks when young.
  8. Wow she won wucky wady. Sorry I had to!
  9. Iv got to go Greenwich tomorrow to work on the olympic site I'm not looking forward to it, I bet we don't get much done!
  10. Dan what's a constrictor hitch is that something you made up lol;-).
  11. There is a different cam for the positioner for flip lines.
  12. I will get some pictures for you tomorrow it's a nice tidy set up with a short tether, also came up with a great idea i will be putting to test tomorrow,I will share it all with pics I'f it works:-).
  13. Had a go with my rw today with my sj and it worked really well, I need to get my head around srt, it all felt strange and I had a few trust issues but I'm sure I will get over them with more practice on it.
  14. Tried most ropes on it and velocity is the one low stretch and beutifull self tending.sam do you have my number? Throw me a text and il meet up with you and show you a few things.
  15. Did you ever try tether on the left side using the Velcro to hold it against the sj ? Because using it on the right doesn't work bc you need the fitting I.e the Velcro.
  16. Hello jake iv not had a chance to try it yet but I take on board what you have said, sounds like you had similiar problems to someone else who I no, how long was your tether?
  17. Great axe! if I sold firewood on a small scale I would buy one.
  18. Can't say I'd want to put my finger on it if it looked like that.:-)
  19. Tried that but they get in the way of the brake lever, I'm going to get my friend engineer to make me a dog legged metal tether that will keep it inline.
  20. I will let you no tomorrow when have a proper climb on it,iv heard mixed views on using the sj. All seems good when playing with it tonight!
