  3. Thatoldchestnut

  5. Thatoldchestnut
    Can't believe that natural selection hasn't caught these guys out before
  6. Thatoldchestnut
    Nice good job
  7. Thatoldchestnut
    Have you tried using a lyon sling as a chest harness mate works really nicely
  8. Thatoldchestnut
    Think it's pretty expensive
  9. Thatoldchestnut
    Completely agree and Tom I think that tenner is mine it's just a matter of time mate:001_tongue:
  10. Thatoldchestnut
    Have you got a pic old mill?
  11. Thatoldchestnut
    I've done a great mod on mine mate. All you need to do is sell it and replace it with a200t. It works great cuts slightly better and most importantly it doesn't disintegrate into a pile of small pieces of plastic
  12. Thatoldchestnut
    It's really really good I agree with rich nice in the hand an low stretch just ordered some more too go with my hitch hiker and hass looking forward to trying it out

    Just bought a pair of planner type a ventilators with the long leg from honey bros and the ther epic best trouser I've had yet

    Cheers Marc the questions where open to anyone mate I only aimed it at Ben and dan as they both mentioned not using spikes and to me that is very alien as I've always used them for removals drt. And yeh someone else told me that both pantin and spikes can be used at the same time I just havnt tried it yet
  16. Thatoldchestnut
    Hi dan and Ben do you guys choose to not wear spikes because you favour using a foot ascender instead and also because using redirects means you can gain a much better positioning and therefore don't need them. I too currently only use srt for reductions and sj for removals so any help n this is much appreciated Cheers luke

    Hi luke did you have any luck finding some cougar nicked mine with a brand new silky half way along and can't really justify shipping from states
  18. Thatoldchestnut
    I use two retention rubbers one either side of my sj on a dmm ultra o and rever have any probs
  19. Thatoldchestnut
    +1 for cougar it's epic
  20. Thatoldchestnut
    Have you looked at the hass accent system Marc havnt tried it myself yet but seen a few vids and it looks like the perfect setup for the rope walker the reviews on it seem to be very good too

    You can get an attachment for the uni called the drum which dramatically increases the life of the uni and I think also enhances the proformance
  22. Thatoldchestnut
    Hi stubby are they any good for climbing in?
  23. Thatoldchestnut
    Would you advise against getting a stein cube then nifty
  24. Thatoldchestnut
    Couldn't agree with you mor Arran
  25. Thatoldchestnut
    I had the zz1 and then went on to get the spider jack I personally prefer the sj due to the easy self tailing I use velocity for my short rope as it falls through the sj with no rope weight below. And have blue tongue for my long rope as its easier on the hands in big trees
