  1. lol ! yeh its a coded message !!! Trying hard to drag myself disgracefully into climber speak Albedo
  2. No problems with mine .. Pure quality , ticks over beautiful , starts first time every time . I would take some convincing to change brands ( polesaws,hedgecutters etc ) . KM90 R btw
  3. Been seemingly reliably informed i should not use a gri gri in a RADS system because it is permanently sprung open . Can i replace it like for like with an ID / Rig ? Thanks ...
  4. Give Peckerwoo a whistle ..
  5. The Gold rush continues , well done chaps
  6. Its ok bobh we havent a clue what were talking about either
  7. Yeh its the time thing thats the biggest issue , and tiredness when you get home . Would be good to learn some of those techniques though .
  8. Enjoyed the UFC on espn but cancelled my subscription when they ditched the ice hockey I do miss it ( fancy actually learning some mma myself )
  9. Do a thread search on this , i think it was possibly me that started it . There was good answers the best being get shot PS.. pull over , switch off engine . Wait couple minutes , restart , wait till black smoke dissappears thats it sorted ( till next time ) and just dont accelerate too hard
  10. Would seem unfair either of them missing out !!
  11. Everyone up here is getting really into it I was really pessimistic at first but this is just great , well done to team GB . I've registered for Sochi .. bring it on !!
  12. I agree with this ... Watched the interview and he hadnt a clue how he was being interpreted . This situation is within the rules apparently .
  13. Your right , it is always sprung open . So i can simply replace the gri gri like for like with an id or Rig ? I would genuinely love to see some ' experts ' ascend srt if they think rads is slow , i mean how quick does it have to be Ps . I always back it up with a french prussik as i would do with any descender just in case
  14. Why the question mark ? You know i said it . Please enlighten me . cheers
  15. I'd be trying to find out how big the rootball is as this is obviously going to determine how big a hole needs to be dug ( assuming hand digging ) possible backbreaker 200-250 ? More chance of local suppliers knowing this i would think ..
  16. I used to think like this ... but a day involving great TEAMWORK i think is one of the best feelings you can get in our industry
  17. Its just an srt system of climbing where it is possible to ascend and descend with minimum of fuss and effort using the equipment HA has described . Check out the ' Victorian Tree Industry Organisation ' website and youtube for more detailed info .
