    Petzl OK carabiners

    We had the same problem with Petzl Williams, even on brand new ones. It came to a point where we stopped retailing Petzl Karibinars and switched to DMM.

    Crane course in Norway

    Thanks to good prices on cranes, sponsorship from Stihl, volunteer work, and a good price on the trees we dismantled we were able to offer the course at the price of NOK 4000,- .
