What do folks think about Ver III? I heard it has idle / stall issues? I like the looks, price and power! What do folks think about after-market exhaust to amp it up? Thx---
I have been miscalculating (tip heavy / light and butt the same) the dead eye slings when removing long parallel limbs. Maybe the sling angle too great? miscalculating center balance? Curious to rules of thumb too. Thx for help.
Recently bought this. It does not loosen under any tension with steel core (no insert) lanyard. Tightening is smooth! Does it loosen under a load with a rope lanyard (with proper insert)? Recommendations?
Who is liable (contract climber or tree service) when a crane accident (actual pics of limbs / wood) occurs or damage to client's property occurs? I realize this is not true legal advice but looking for insight, experience, or history on this subject. Thx-
My one month old New Tribe (Size 1) is too small. Hoping to make a trade for Monkey Beaver II, because of the additional back support and I need Size M. Willing to pay $$ along with trade.
I recently purchased a Grillon but don't care for how hard the device sinches on the rope lanyard, while fully loaded. Any suggestions for replacement rope lanyard?

Are the actual climber spur (L shape, part that you stand on and goes up inside of shin) of right and left side Gecko spurs the same? I may have mix and matched two different pairs. Obviously the pads say "L" and "R" so I got that right. Question #2 - I have the pads adjusted to @ 2" below my...

I have been using 11mm Blue Moon with my newer ZigZag (incl Chicane) but it has started to slip. I cleaned my rope and ZigZag but still have slip. What are folks' favorite rope (performance / cost / durability)? Thx
I noticed my center of gravity has shifted. It is now hard to balance upright in my saddle while hanging from tie in point. I have never paid much attention to proper setup. Any suggestions to how to properly set it up and create a better hanging balance, I am all ears!
