  1. Will setup a cannobase tomorrow. Pics will clarify things. Basically use a ring/ring on a solid lower section and thread your line up and through higher limbs you would not like to do a canopy anchor on. Key is to use a couple to spread load.
  2. SRT just saves your body. Plain and simple. Get good at throwline. Moving around the tree is so effortless with redirects. Load sharing on PSPs is epic. Cannobase anchor allows for higher TIPs on trees that one might not feel comfortable using that high TIP alone....get sone.....
  3. Good lord not a pic in this thread....across the pond for the first time in ages....
  4. Bro, SRT work positioning is the future period....all good...ITCC is slowly coming on board allowing the RIG and wrench....
  5. enjoy...and I sincerely mean that...lol
  6. Neither, throw the zigzag away....get a wrench...start SRT....and then get unspliced ropes...hmmm...buy a pinto for a canopy anchor...stop the wear and tear on your body all that humping....my stupid 2 cents.....
  7. Petzl, dropped the ball on this one...does not matter to me as I have no interest in things DdRT for a long time....I would check the zig zag often...please don't take any chances climbing on a cracked one...a life is just not worth it...my 2 cents...
  8. sawpod...could never use anything else...hate reaching around....
  9. Oh my....you are a true hoot Mark....parties must love you....
  10. Oh my interesting Mark, front and rear gunner....this should be fun...interesting...
  11. Rope wrench...easy tool to use...if you want a mechanical...go for a rope runner head to treestuff now they got them in stock...
  12. Well that is good damn news, cause i don't like climbing with bungee cordage....that nylon core is just crap on SRT IMHO....well I will pleasantly say for my climbing style....poly core only for me....
  13. Yeah I will be doing that Al.....of the 10 I will bring 3 at least....that will do...
