    So all whipped up and ready to role, I made one adjustment after a conversation with Drew B this morning as he noticed it was not a locking Brummell which he was right to be extra save I have redone it with a locking Brummell, the whipping is not the neatest but for my first I'm pleased......

    I agree with Paul here it's not always climber preference it is in fact down to the hitch no matter how you climb a certain hitch will only work good with a certain cord and rope combination, if you have some spare penny's then buy a few lengths of different. Cord and experiment .......when I used 13mm Yale I fount 10mm beeline was best on a distal but and beal regate was better on a helicle ..". for what it costs to do this in lengths of cord £20-£30 depending on what you want to achieve really....

    Did not see this before but that has to be one of the best physics explanations I've ever heard....... You know while I'm taking time out from the thread getting my photos and that back together again, should be good to see some other arbtalkers Rigging pictures systems techniques so on and so on. Don't worry I can still pick back up where I left off. Oh Steve I tried out the shrek system only I have evolved it.....great stuff works awesome.....pics to follow....

    Was nice to see everyone who I did see but everything was so short. And had to get round everything in such a short space of time. I would of stayed over but had big news today as Alex has told me I'm going to be a daddy again, it's been a hectic week after I proposed to her last Friday and today was a nice short break from it all. Great to see some new faces and old ones to, sorry I never got to speak to mr Colin's was looking forward to a catch up, i'm sure there will be plenty more times though....hope the hands are not to sore John shuttler after all the splicing ......those who stayed over have a great night and take care. P.s the T-shirts are great Steve . Thanks mate...

    Thanks for the vote of convedence mate, I'm sure there are better offers out there but up till now it seems I'm the only one to make the offer..... And arron I was not being dramatic about your post nor did I want you to change what you had put, just trying to work out why everyone is wanting to learn more but not pay a small price ? Nice of you to re think though buddy respect for that...
  24. Adam Bourne
    Haha Sam wish I could say the same for my body...... Thanks though mate.....must be the fresh lincs air.....
  25. Adam Bourne
    2 1/2 hours??? What's wrong with you young un's i have had the privilege to work with some of the best climbers in the world. And the late Sam Robinson was no exception.....if not the best at one time. I had the pleasure of being asked by him and severel others on a rec climb when I was 18 the drive was a crueling 3 hour drive the second week I past my test with motorway driving involved.....it's how bad you want to learn not what stands between you and an opotunity ....just my thoughts anyway no disrespect ...
