    Mike Goggia used to do that! I came back to working for him after a stint with another guy and he had a big deadwooding+removals job at a trailer park, and they were lifting my buddy up with the bobcat while I raced him on a ropewalker setup. I got setup faster and made it to my TIP way before...

    Switching between SRS & MRS....

    I knew there had to be a creative way to cinch an X-ring in there! I haven't gotten a cric yet, so it hadn't occurred to me, but does it do the one way spin thing as well?

    Before I had any ascenders, I put prusiks on each of my feet and had a chicane one my ZZ. I did that at a job interview, and it must have impressed the guy because he hired me, and we kept working together on and off for 5 years until I moved.

    Shagbark Hickory preservation
