    Rigging Tip Failure

    The tree they took the top out of was sure strong enough. Not only did it hold the top but for a while it held the failed lead too!

    Rigging Tip Failure

    Obviously he could have went smaller. Let say we take the same sized piece. How would we set the rigging up differently to allow for success? I agree natural rigging was a factor, also having the second rigging point to high seems to be a factor. If the guy on the ropes let it run the full...

    Recommendations for footwear?

    I really like the ArbPro's ArbPro evo They have stood up to the abuse that i put boots through. I have only had one pair of boots last over a year and those i used only for pruning. These i used for everything pruning and removals. They stand up to the abuse a climber puts them through. If...

    Tips and Tricks

    I'm not worried about the bend radius. I make sure that the line does not run across the biner. Thats the bigger concern i have. The munter holds it place well. but some movement isn't a bad thing as it adjusts as needed. So are my field findings

    Tips and Tricks

    [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] This tip brought to you by Derrik Martin....When redirecting a single line, use a munter hitch on the biner. This dosent allow the climbers weight to pull branch unions together or apart. rope then acts like a brace. a definite game changer...allowing you to redirect into...

    Is it really this complex depending on equipment?

    I was on vortex for a while as well, eventually i got tired of all the rope weight. I am on Imori and am loving it. It has a little more stretch than i like for SRT with a basal tie off. But its so versatile and is easy to grab. The other really solid line is Kernmaster! Can hardly go wrong with...

    Wrenchin on the Fly

    The fly rope by New England? I like it. It was my go to short line, used it a lot!!! It kinda fuzzes out and i think it makes it easier to grab then velocity or blaze, if your looking for a real light weight rope. Has more stretch then some of the other choices but overall i find it a great rope...
