  2. did anyone get any videos of the throw line launcher? lol
  3. still no one got any pictures of it been used with a spderjack?
  4. does anyone actually own one of these catapults? a lot cheaper than a big shot, but can't imagine them being as good
  5. honestly makes that much difference?
  6. did you see how fast he spikes up hahaha, if they came back and had all our new shiny stuff they would make us look like babes in a tree
  7. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcEto_Q8MlY&feature=related]Redwood Lumber Industry, Northern California - 1947 - YouTube[/ame] can you imagine topping it this tree out with a axe!
  8. is that darrens cherry picker mate?
  9. great video mate, how you finding the velocity?
  10. yea its the flipping bollard and ratchet strap thats really annoying, cos i like to have things in a bag so its easy to carry and keep separate
  11. if you get one adam do you think you could help convince brian to try SRT? haha
  12. that sounds good mr org, you got a link? those lyon bags do look good, but the bollard is flipping big and heavy, i might just have to keep it separate
  13. what is the best bag/thing to hold my stein single bollard/pulley blocks/ slings and so on in, the bollard is so heavy it rips every i try, and i would prefer to have it all in one place, and taking up as little space as possible, hmmmm...
  14. joe in the trees have you got any videos of ou climbing on the new mods yet?
  15. keep them coming ian, the more i watch the more I'm converted, i had massive leggy oaks today to reduce, i real pain in the ass, slimy, leggy with nothing to put handstand feet, slippery, and i just thought "get a wrench and big shot you spanner"
  16. yea iv read it all mate, i just would love to see a video or pictures of it with a spider jack as I'm too tight to buy a lockjack
  17. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ydt-hUT6aGE]Hitch Climber Set-Up - YouTube[/ame] this video will explain a hitch climber very easily, the difference is you don't body thrust under your knot, but climb above the knot hand over hand, pulling the slack through, under the pulley wheel, much easier to branch walk in and generally move around. personall i use like deer man, ART gear, spiderjack especially video for this is [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBfyrzZzsvk]Spiderjackery III - YouTube[/ame] a must watch, again a lot more money but worth it in my opinion, especially with some find of rolling cambium saver such as this one [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_zDuHgVbBk&feature=related]pulleySAVER - YouTube[/ame] picture paints a thousand words thats what i say, hope this helps

  20. oh wait you have already said haha sorry
