    I don't like having my knee ascender attached to the device. Feels like it drags too much agains the bungee stretch. This is why I still wear a chestie. May have something to do with how he will climb on one UNI dragging another along site it on his 2 rope system. I'll hold for his...

    Thanks Paul, I did a pretty good prune yesterday on a brittle species and was able to get way down on the 3" droppers with relative ease. The return was very intuitive. Couple swings and jumps that seemed easy to feather the device for a decent landing vs a crash landing. I need to play with...

    Pretty much but not as sensitive. I'm in canopies like that pretty constantly so I'm just hyper aware of it. I truly dislike surprises that result in rapid decent.

    What did I miss?

    Welcome back Noel. Always good to hear/see you. Tell me more about this partnership if you can. I noticed some new articles about old threads and there seems to be a push for the buzz. Obviously you guys see a great opportunity for some networking but what do you think the main goal is? Thanks

    Day 3 on it. Nice prune today, Wondering if a little stiffer rope will help it eat up slack on horizontal rope angles. The Kalimba is still fairly soft compared to the Yale 11.7 ropes. Enjoyed the feel of the device. Super solid on MRS. yesterday was a multi stem removal. Many trips back...

    Absolutely takes some effort. I can't see that happening and when I swap it's on my bridge so I don't drop it. Murphy's law

    You’ve gotta have the rope out of the device and you’ll see how there’s a silver thingy you have to move right with your thumb then lift the swivel off the axle.

    There is a trick to getting the swivel off. You probably missed it reading your owners manual. ;))))

    I didn't. had one on the saddle but ran without it. Seemed good. Not too jerky. I need to run it more in SRS to really make a good judgement and then maybe try it with a wrench. Mostly I think I'll use the wrench for the AR event at any comps I might do because it'll help prevent jerking...

    Throw bag-line accuracy issues

    If my shoes aren't tied tight I throw like crap. I feel like it's an unsteadiness on my base and it throws everything off. Balance, and muscle relaxation. I know this probably sounds strange but it's a thing for me. I feel like I'm slipping and unstable. SO if I throw like shit at the...

    So yesterday's climbs were satisfying. Singled up on Scandere and set a Ropeguide and worked the trees MRS on Kalimba. On the ascent, did some up and down to see how the handling was vs MRS. Tended on ascent just as great as anything I've used. Maybe even better than my Vertek. Descent was...
