  1. I used to climb on blue tongue using a spider jack which i did like however I find it quite bouncy now compared to the cougar blue I currently use which is great pretty static mind but great for srt I the only thing I'm not keen on is the fact that it flattens out a fair bit when used with certain devices
  2. I personally think they are by far the best helmet on the market as far as comfort, adjustability the quality of the visor, safety and the ear defenders are nice and compact however don't provide as good a protection like others have mentioned and also the fact that the sweat bad at the front fall off all the time great lid though
  3. I bought some cougar blue twice from tree stuff last year which didn't take to long at all to get here paid about £26 import tax but I did order a fair bit of other stuff too Cheers luke
  4. Completely agree with you there joe well said
  5. What are people finding to be there favoured options for static redirects then alpine butterfly and a million? Cheers luke
  6. Hmm bet that was interesting Ian I have looked at a few redirects recently and thought I really hope that. Doesn't snap
  7. I'm finding when using bigger saws that they are pulling the back of my TM down so also thought about getting the shoulder straps would be good to no how you get on with them joe Cheers luke
  8. I too like the hrc ile be giving that new liros dynamid a go next week tho
  9. I tried to get some armour Prus from honey bros the other day they don't sell it anymore due to import costs with it coming from New Zealand.
  10. Hi guys recently bought a stihl 076av which could do with a good service and requires some new parts my question is where is the best place to get hold of parts? I have found some on ebay not all of them Cheers luke
  11. How well are you finding it working on cougar Ian do you have any other ropes to compare it with? Cheers luke
  12. With my limited experience of the srt sequoia I don't think it's that much different to the normal sequoia other than the fact it has additional attachment points for a chest harness but I may be wrong. If this is the case you would be better off trying on plenty of different harnesses and picking your favourite then using a tape sling to create a chest harness
  13. I would have thought so even if they are slight due to the dyes in the rope
  14. Trust me its pretty glazed I really don't like it just my opinion and didn't work well for me on cougar
  15. I had a look at beeline hitch cord yesterday after suspicions that it had badly glazed after a big climb the other day and it was so switched over to some hrc today which seemed to be much better, it did not bind up at all and didn't get hot good cord for anyone on cougar
  16. Great trouser the price seems insane but wait till you put them on
