  1. Was looking at the airstreams but ended up buying a pair of stein phantoms just waiting for the delivery today. any on e used these boots yet? i have always had haix tough old boots.
  2. Cheers yal. i have been looking at the airstreams so i be reckoning them be the ones.
  3. Evening all. Just wondering if you had any opinions on good solid boots that are waterproof and decent for climbing. I had Haix blue mountains before which were good but are now past it time for a change. Cheers.
  4. Are you sure its not mosquitoes there seem to be thousands of them at the moment massive as well.
  5. 6-7 hours for me and always have a good brekkie to kick-start the day off otherwise get to hungry early on in the day.
  6. Very nice but would be worried about dinging it. which will happen.
  7. Marlborough sounds for the wine you get to go round there wineries and drink loads last time i was there. Fox glacier a pretty different thing to see but if you do go even tho its summer take warm clothes and waterproof as i got soaked when i went. Christchurch is a must to see in my opinion. spent new years in Christchurch 5 years ago which was awesome. definitely try jet boating as well. Im sure there is tons more stuff out there but that's just a few.
  8. That sounds like the same rope i have its the Yale xtc. Im buying myself the dmm hitchclimber this week but with the 10mm op split tale. would be interesting to see which hitch you find best as i will use it as a reference. cheers
  9. Been talking to Chris from treemagineers and he said get the longer cord to try out with different hitches until im happy with the set up. also people have recommended starting with a knut to start with as it bites better?
  10. Its all in the mind i think. although your body at a young age may be younger and tighter. Without the correct mind set you wont get the most out of it. lots of young people moaning that they ache and are tired were as the older generation just get on with it. my opinion anyway.
  11. Im not actually on the Instacanvas site. its the first time i have seen it before just followed the link on your post. great idea though. Thanks for the other links as well. I have been in contact with Chris from treemagineers who has been very helpful as well. so defiantly recommend them. Cheers
  12. That would be great if you can. Great pics on the instacanvas link. What is the cord you are using on your hitchclimber system?
  13. Morning All Hope your all enjoying the great British weather. I would like to ask if i could see some pictures of your hitchclimber set ups so i can get a good idea of different variations for them. Thanks very much.
  14. I was going to say why would you use a double. it is indeed why i come on here.
  15. Lovely job thanks for all the advise on the hitchclimber and cord with the knots.
  16. sounds very nice mate. good luck in oz with the big stuff.
  17. How would you tie the cord off?
  18. Fair play good comment on using the cord cheers for that. im near the Bristol area (Chippenham). got some work but not tons so if you hear of any pm me on here. you worked there long?
  19. Lumberjake who do you work for in bristol?
  20. definitely don't want squeaky gear. another question the place im ordering from doesn't supply the Ocean polyester 10mm eye to eye but do supply the 75cm Stein Copious Cord Silverstreak virtually the same thing but 15cm shorter will that make much of a difference in the set up?
  21. one hell of a home mate. looks amazing.
  22. No fire for me but as i live in a small bungalow if i light it even in the winter i the need the windows open.
  23. Always worth spending the extra money on spikes as you want them to be safe and comfy. Plus they last for ages so you will get your money back.
  24. Well theres not to much difference in price so i reckon the rapide could be on its way.
