  1. Nicely done Dont know if i fancy using the bum plank or the rucksack though but its good to see how others roll...
  2. Lucky you, dont let him get away! keep him locked up at night so he doesnt escape
  3. those ones are like finding a nuggat of gold in your local stream, i have yet to find either:thumbdown:
  4. What program do you use for editing your videos? I have a new vid cam but no editing tool as yet so would prefer to get something decent.
  5. I agree too. Hand signals are useful but the problem is some people have signals for things that mean an entirely different thing to someone else. Teaching a universal sign language for climbers and groundies alike in college sounds like a great idea
  6. I dont use it for chogging down stems. flipline with prussic and climbing line with grigri choked on stem below flipline, thats my favourite setup.
  7. Thats wierd! doesnt even look real sometimes. Very talented dude.
  8. pull through the amount of rope you need to get where you are going on the other side of the fork before going through it, simples:001_smile:
  9. I use it on my right because thats the side the tail of my rope is on. I will say though be careful because with the pantin pulling down sometimes the SJ doesnt bight and you can give yourself a heart attack if your not expecting it when you sit back in your harness.
  10. I will be getting mine when i win the comp so your all wasting your time entering it you know:001_rolleyes:
  11. I had a feeling you were going to pee on my parade:lol: You must have better eyesight than me if you can see whats going on with the oak, maybe i am just tired after a grueling shift and see things a bit fuzzy:001_rolleyes:
  12. the beech looks like a classic compression fork crack just outlived its time and came off, possibly weakened by kids sitting on it:sneaky2: the oak i cant see well enough to comment on the picture. Thats my 2 bobs worth anyway
  13. Nice video mate:thumbup: Why did you rig it if there was no targets? was it just to get the video?
  14. You cant just walk up the rope though with 2 pantins because one wont pass the other on the rope. You would have to flick them off the rope every step and then put them back above the other.
  15. I did a lot of planes while in Rome but i never had any bother with the leaves (never noticed any hairs on them, Maybe a different species) The seed pods on the other hand are a nightmare and if your crashing big limbs to the ground, then the pods have a tendency to explode (slight exaggeration, lets just say burst) and throw the hairs everywhere. Not so bad if your in the tree but for the groundies its not nice. They are ok when green but when brown and dry they are horrible:thumbdown:
  16. Yep the pantin works a treat:thumbup:
  17. cheap nasty chain and general bad use by the sound of it...
  18. loving the throwbag shot, thats quality:thumbup:
  19. Never mind your truck porn cravings... what about the lunge?
