    Free fall with Rope Runner Pro

    I have had almost the same experience except without the pitch with my RRP. It has gotten to the point that I am seriously thinking about selling it. I retrieved my OG runner with the baby bump from my northern gear stash and like it so much better other than putting it on and off the rope. My...

    New saddle for heavy guy?

    I have the MB-1.0 with the 1.0 suspenders and love it. I am 6'4 but have recently dropped some weight. I am averaging about 275 out of the shower these days. I would love to have the MB 2.0 but can't really justify it at my age. I will be celebrating another trip around the sun in a few days and...

    A couple weeks age on a very hot humid day I was pruning a huge Water Oak and was soaking wet with sweat. About midafternoon I noticed honeybees seemed to be attracted to me. I had about a dozen on me for about an hour or more. only one stung me and that was because she got under my shirt sleeve...

    Contract climbers and liability insurance

I believe the trigger amount for issuing a 1099 is $300.00 in any one tax year. After that everything you pay them must show on the 1099. They will most...

    Bad Petzl, Good Bartlett Arborist Supply

    For some unknown reason, I don't like Petzl products either. I have some biners I should put on treebay. Bartlettman is great though, as is Gap and Arbsessions.

    Marlow 11.8mm climbing lines?

    Almost zero elongation, not stiff like xstatic and when they developed the technique for an eye splice, that was the selling point. Although it is not supposed to milk, I got about 16 to q8 inches over cover to milk when it was new and before I spliced the other end. Came to me with one splice...
