Compact Bulldog Bone
I just picked it up from the post office and am so stoked to climb on this work of art. My first impression of it falling out the box into my hand was heart skipping a beat surprise of how precise and polished it is. Damn this is actually beautiful. I was expecting cold, rough, mad max ish...- snunyabizness

chinook hitch
coworker and I were simultaneously pruning a large white oak, he was working 1/2 with the 75' bucket truck and I the opposite side Srt with my akimbo+11.7 blue moon. Neither of us could reach one limb with some crispies out over the home. So he set a line for me, groundee base tied it, and I...- snunyabizness

New HitchHikerXF
sorry to have put that in an abrasive way. I like the hh2 and climb on it regularly, but for select work. It is an elegant device that I admire constantly, but there are times when this device is not chosen from the gear bag. There are times that I find myself distracted by how this device is...- snunyabizness

New HitchHikerXF
the most annoying part of the HH to me is dealing with the stopper knot at the dogbone and then never quite getting it right before setting in. Usually I end up retying within a 1/2 hour after climbing. I see you have optimized the lower piece where the carabiner previously sat which is cool...- snunyabizness

[Climbers] Any reasons to hold-off (or reconsider) buying an Echo 2511T?

[Climbers] Any reasons to hold-off (or reconsider) buying an Echo 2511T?
I tried the makita xcu06t a little over a year ago now and was disappointed with it. The marketing on youtube was very compelling. I don't think 18v is adequate. Returned it to the store after a few days and got a refund. The size and weight are certainly impressive for climbing, but the torque...- snunyabizness

Several months ago I stumbled across the twin rope climbing technique (TRT) and wanted to master some of the concepts using the gear I already own without purchasing any specialized equipment, so that I would have effective methods to work certain scenarios (like failed or dead trees), but using...- snunyabizness

youtuber "diagentanoen" in Japan has several pruning videos relevant to this discussion where he spurs up beanpoles with absolutely no supportive branches and repels out from retrievable trunk cinches. What is interesting are the type of spurs he wears. Seems the 4 points per foot would grip...- snunyabizness

Why no hitch for SRT?
It has really taken me a while to wrap my head around this, and from digging through the forums, i'm not alone. This is a summary of what I have sorted out. @TheTreeSpyder and @misfit both bring up great points. A: whether descending or tending the hitch, it has to be unloaded just enough to...- snunyabizness
