    could you use this as a tip tie off with a rope wrench, and is there anyway of backing up the carabiner at the base anchor, i know its nice to have less hard wear, but a backup is always good, as you can tell im not on srt yet but will be soon i think

    adam is it honestly THAT much better? i really want one but keep putting it off because of the whole switch over thing, and the fact i havnt worked with a hitch in 4 years because iv been on spiderjack, everytime iv had to use a hitchclimber iv hated it
  3. James Atkinson

    yea it is mate, in my opinion the airstreams last longer and also seem to keep there shape better than the woodworkers, but i would try them on they might not be for you

    with a larks head would it sit straight or would most of the weight be pulled onto one cheek of the pulley?

    dyneema is good for light rigging with my pinto rig, but im still not sure if it needs splicing on like adams or is it ok to use with a carabiner, just worried about the heat and friction

    hidden in this bag is 45m rope in its own bullrope bag with spiderjack, climbing spikes with guards!!, wirecore flip line, harness with all attachments i.e. lanyard, chainsaw bungee, all crabs i climb with and rope guide etc, in the little pouch there are my climbing gloves, split tail, random 5m spare lanyard, spare bridge for harness, and as you can see on the outside there are all the spare stuff i dont always use, buts its there for the groundies to see when i point it out. so everything i own for climbing is in or on this bag, and i know its going to last for years with all of that in it, hope this helps

    im sorry but your wrong pine, iv climbed on a spiderjack for around 4 years, and i had to clib a tree the other day on a hitchclimber, hated every single body thrusting pulling slack with sappy hitch cord second, i kept thinking, if i was using my sj, the sap would not effect it in the slightest, and every movement up the tree was a smooth effortless no slack pulling thing of coolness

    yea i was lucky found one on ebay for 40 quid hadnt been used just badly listed!!
  23. James Atkinson
