  1. Haven't tried it but a rowing machine might keep some of the muscles toned? Although climbing is the best cure! Jake
  2. I did like my Zig Zag when I had it but now that I have become so acostom to my hitch climbier I'm still unsure as to weather on not I am going to be getting the MK2 tbh. Might just get a new length of rope instead Jake
  3. I have climbed on a few different marlow ropes and just find them way too bouncy for my liking. The rope i put the link to n the first post can be used in DdRT. The 11mm version shouldn't be used. There are three different Hedera ropes, the 11mm SRT, the 11.7mm DdRT or SRT and the 13mm DdRT or SRT.
  4. Yeah I'm not keen on Marlow at all tbh.
  5. Right all I'm in need of a new climbing line. I am looking at the 11.7mm ropes and have found the Yale Hedera 11.7mm and was wondering if you guys have any reviews on it?? It sound like it is a nice rope being as it is fairly static. Pros and Cons will be much appreciated and thank you in advance. Jake Yale Hedera 11.7mm climbing rope 1 splice | F R Jones and Son
  6. I know you might not be allwoed to but are you able to send a photo or two over for me to have a little look at? Jake.
  7. The date that Petzl said was Feb 2014. I do know that some people (Don't know them by name) have already got a prototype Zig Zag 2 to try it out as a kind of R&D. Jake
  8. I'm 6ft 5" and I have Stihl Hiflex in XL although i have to wear braces to hold them up as they are like a 38-42 waist when I am only a 35 waist and I have size 13 feet but I wear size 12 Haix Trekker i think they are called Trekker Pros or Mountain Trekker?? They are a brown leather boot.
  9. Bought a Berretta Shotgun case today for a tenner usually 35 squid.
  10. Hi all just a quick simple question. The bolt at the back of the Rope Wrench, what is the width between the two side plates? (If you are unsure which bolt I mean it is the one where the tether attaches to) Cheers, Jake.
  11. I use a hitch climber on my main line however I still use a blakes on my short line.
  12. Picked up a big fishing bed couple weeks back. Usually £100 in shops got it for £40!! Good condition too!!!
  13. I do actually have a site which I might be able to sort one out at. I haven't long had the permission to climb there but after I have been there a few times and got to know the owners I may well ask if it is possible.
  14. Hi, yeah I'd really like to tag along however I do have the lare problem which is transport!! If there is someone in the suffolk area who is also going and they could give me a lift then I'm In. (also if it fits around me college days) Jake
  15. Nice vid Arran!! Is that the Hero 3??? Just out of interest would that rec climb around the Suffolk area
  16. Yeah it looks to be that. What insect are they caused by and why the increase in number this year as opposed to previous years???? Jake H
  17. Hi all. Every year these bumps occur on the leaves of my Walnut tree. This year though they seem to be in a much larger number and even patches of leaves have become so deformed that they look as if they are dying. Any help as to what the possible cause of the increased number of bumps would be great. Cheers, Jake H.
  18. Great Video Adam! Sweet felling cuts too!!! What song was that BTW??? Jake H
  19. My mate brought me his friends one of these the other day to see if I could get it running. He said it was called an Einhell???
  20. I had oil round the decompression button. Started fine first thing but then didnt cool down at all in the heat so whenever I pulled it it started to flood the saw. I just took the plug out and left it to dry a bit then put the plug back in and it went first pull every time.
  21. Don't think this product will be flying off the shelves!
