    looking for wider climbing boots

    Howdy, I've got skinny feet that suited my Scafell Lite's, but I have to give them up due to a brewing bunion. I'm not longer fussed about chainsaw protection, and I use my CanWest's when I spur. Would appreciate your recommendations on something wider than the Lite's in the toe area, and...

    Gecko 2.0 replacement pads fit on Gecko OGs?

    howdy. Anyone try converting the new Gecko 2.0 replacement pads for their old red cups? From the online pics the pad profile looks slightly different but not massively so. Also the steel hanger for the new strap is fixed to the material, not the cup as the old version. Again, different, but...

    howdy, for obscure reasons I have never found a crystal-clear resource covering a negative rig double-whip setup with rings and/or blocks to control and lower large chunks down one face of an isolated stem. No doubt vids exist but alongside whatever you might link I would benefit from a pdf...

    wrecked by Geckos

    Ahoy hoy. As the thread title suggests, I just had a bad experience with a new-to-me pair of Gecko aluminum spurs, but given their immense popularity and how light they are I'm hoping the fault is mine and seasoned hands can explain why. Backstory: Last year, as a new climber I bought some...

    climbing slick wood

    Howdy. After two months climbing and doing removals in Ontario, i went to the tropics and was contracted to take down a pair of large eucalyptus trees. I do not know exactly which variety of euc, but they were shaped like head-standing krakens with skin slicker than owl-sh*t. There were...

    hitchhiker 2 versus HHx

    Howdy. Newish climber and new to the site, so hope I'm posting in the right forum. I'm looking for something smoother than my rope wrench on branch walks and was told the HH was the ticket. Is there much performance difference between the HH2 and the HHx? I ask as the latter are not presently...
