    My "seacret weapon"

    your rope splice should enter the small ring first then go through the big ring just like a friction saver so i guess it depends which way you have your DdRT system oriented. if your asking whether it matters to start the wraps by going over the line or behind it, then no it doesn't seem to...

    Tried DSRT yesterday. I'm a fan.

    love your video Oceans! (y) totally was one of the things that helped introduce me to DSRT. was even one of the inspiration for my lil go at it. what i tended to think was that the technique was easiest/ useful to use in a big broad tree that had relatively close branches where you could reach...

    it was a nice free form and free event. these sorts of thing should be supported and encourage not just because tree guys coming together, sharing and rec climbing (without fear of being ticketed) are good things but being able to touch, try on and see first hand how gear works is a luxury few...

    the guys name was J.R. Reed and his website is www.treemonkeyfun.com i think you should be able to get a hold of him through that. nice to meet you by the way. check out theschultzeffect.com for enough SRT info to make your head hurt ;)

    Swivel benefits?

    i tend to agree, swivels are nice for when u wanna spin your orentation around too but they tend to allow rope twist to spin your device and make more of a rope mess.

    The Shultz Effect

    perhaps with the rope against the trunk and having to put spikes on anyways he figured why bother?

    This is the Akimbo

    beautifully crafted well thought out device from a mad scientist with a mission of excellence i was also in attendance and got to test out the Akimbo first hand. compact, smooth, easily adjustable without tools, quick on and off the rope. don't know what else i can say that hasn't been said...

    The Shultz Effect

    initially it certainly seems that way but your climbing style adapts and you begin climbing the actual tree more and using your body leverage different. you also start routing the tree differently and using more redirects to change the angle of your limb walks. setting up a quick 2:1 with SRT is...

    My "seacret weapon"

    maybe try this? it's similar to the path you're on. it may help you transition to full SRT as well. fast forward to 2:53

    Best cut for swinging limbs

    i appreciate the nod :tanguero: the the answer to the question depends on alot of things for me, like type of tree/ wood characteristics, where the rigging point is and what's my clearance over the obstacle... very generally speaking i use a notch. a straight up rip cut can be a bit...

    Tried DSRT yesterday. I'm a fan.

    i got a few ideas for set ups but it depends on a few things. like how do you plan to work the tree? it the work all over the entire tree? hit one side on the way up, do the whole top then repel and alternate between the other side and middle? do you want something set from the ground that puts...

    The Shultz Effect

    with most things "it all comes down to the tree" as Drumbo said (spot on by the way). i wasn't trying to put DdRT on the same level as SRT, altho i'm sure it has come off that way at times, but definitely making sure not to promote it's elimination and more importantly, not ostracizing it and...

    The Shultz Effect

    i feel honored really. i've only met him a hand full of times and he's not even that into to SRT, so for him to go out of his way like that was really the motivation for me to get on the Buzz and start living up to some expectations and making myself available for interrogation :tanguero:

    No block no prob

    when you blocked down the wood did you have stubs to run your butt hitch over or did you have to cut grooves in the trunk to run the rope in?

    What rope are you using for the rope runner???

    like the feed illustrates, different ropes for different folks. but for me i've found that the Runner works best on static rope because they hold their shape the best and the tight jackets tend to be smoother and slicker, giving it a gentle "slide to a stop feeling". it's also easier to engage...
