    these figures are quite alarming really......80% thats way to high?, what with rapid weather change across the globe, to and decline in some of the most valuable and most important species to mankind him self! this can't good....surely there is good news out there somewhere.

    Looking at the birds is a good start my friend, and its not looking good....... New figures show populations of farmland birds at record low, with woodland birds also experiencing a 24% decline, we can only hope we are at least stalling these declines......... our jobs of retaining these eco-systems are now of a greater importance.....

    There is no wrong or right to this question mate, its all down to tree health, size and location, percentage of reduction and most of all good tree management, If a reduction was in place on a tree where there were no safety factors involved i,e in the middle of a field or woodland then why would you????. Then on the other hand if it was in close proximity of us destructive humans then it would come down to tree health, size and all our professional minds to make the right decision, if the tree was in decline or showing signs of crown failure then to reduce it could be one of its best chances of survival, then it still stems down to how much how regular.........(good tree management)...... or you could just tell your teacher because it pays the bills.....

    Agreed...... I'm a big fan of 2 climbing lines and also a big fan of redirects used in either in conjunction with the V-rig/M-method and also double pulleys, what ever you choose to use make sure your comfortable using it, stay safe and K,I,S. Adam

    Aries is lovely and smooth really supple which makes it great for tying knots, blaze i think is a little more on the hard side, still a nice rope though.....never tried velocity so can't comment on that.....review looks good on it though. Adam

  19. Adam Bourne
    yes mate you can to a normal cambium saver, and the rope guides are well smooth you would not believe the difference they make just using a pulley...... with the cambium saver and a pulley you do get a bit more friction...

    Look quite solid mate, would say you should get a couple of years out them, then i guess the replacements won't be cheap either
  25. Adam Bourne
    had a look at one the other week, look nice, and all components are replaceable, would be nice to try one, but for nearly £100 i think i'll wait till both my rope guides need throwing.......
