    New device from ISC

    I saw a video of a Spanish, average build, climber on Xstatic where the reflex would not grab whatsoever unless manually opening the links. He said that he had it happen once before when he was working in Germany and that he thought it was due to how cold it was that day but now that its...

    Interested in hearing more about KM3 and Tachyon Ash with the Reflex if anyone has tried those.

    New device from ISC

    Did you end up trying out those other ropes where the older device failed to grab with the new device?

    Tree man.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're in pain and that you lost a friend. I lost a friend and coworker last year and it puts you in a very strange place. I think you are posting these things as a very misguided call for help and I think that talking to the people in your life who care about you would be...

    The Akimbo 2

    It would certainly be reasonable to expect any good arborist to have read the user manual on their life support device... I'll have to look next week

    The Akimbo 2

    Struggling to get the Akimbo 2 to work on Kalimba. I weigh 170ish lbs and have tried a lot around the C friction settings but had to put it down and go back to the akimbo 1 since I had a big spready silver maple to cable and prune. Going to try A1 next and B2 seems like it worked for others on...

    ISA Webpage

    I emailed them expressing my frustrations with the website, very annoying when you're trying to recertify.

    Communication system recommendations?

    How big is your crew and how often do you work with different people? The older senas are cheaper and are great for up to 3 person crews but start getting annoying around 4 and are basically unusable for 5+. The newer mesh technology is needed if people are going to be coming and going or...

    The Akimbo 2

    Has anyone used it with the Courant Kalimba 11.9 mm rope? I have been going crazy buying gear lately so I shouldn't buy the AK2 but as soon as my gear allowance from the company I work for restarts next year...

    How to keep spikes from coming loose

    Nope, the companies in the Central Wisconsin area are not good to work for at all in my and friends' experience.

    How to keep spikes from coming loose

    I find that there are a lot of factors that go into keeping your spikes tight on your boot but no matter what adjustments I make, within 15 minutes of a removal I'll have them come loose from the middle of my boot and start sitting awkwardly on the heel or slipping off entirely sometimes. It's...
