The secret hand shake makes the cable, sling, or chain a bit longer. You use less in the set up. Also is a bit faster. I’ve done it and it worked like a charm.
I remember seeing that at the ‘17 expo as well. Liked it a lot. Doing bucket work I think it would be ok. If I’m climbing, I don’t wanna haul it up there though. It wasn’t ungodly heavy but there are lighter options to haul up. Maybe not as heavy duty though. If they sent me one to demo I would...
The hook is designed to be loaded vertically. Side loading is not recommended. The ones to the outer edges would most likely be balancers so it really shouldn’t be an issue but if something were to go wrong that’s where big brother would look

Same here. Mid to late afternoon Wednesday. Five of us coming down. We can be of service if needed. Just don’t wait till to late in the evening. @deevo and I might be a bit of a hindrance by then.
Speaking of Deevo. Let me know what you find out. I have your care package ready. Just missing...
I’ve done the aerial rescue training several times through different places. I’m in Ohio so prolly not much help. I will say that advanced first aid should be taken. The general first aid class is common sense stuff and basically tells you to get an expert in there. Hopefully taking a refresher...
See you there as well Jamie. Can you ask them to bring me a ball cap with a bill that I can bend? I can’t do the flat billed hats. Just not my thang
I may have some gear with me. Might have to partake in a rec climb
Like already stated with the smaller outfits, al least in my area, winter is basically lay off time. So any and all overtime is welcome. Most smaller outfits don’t offer decent benefit packages. Some do. I can’t wrap my head around guys not wanting overtime. I cut my hours back this year but...
Pretty close to typical. Stay away jeffgu!! You might become infected or infatuated.
Good to have ya back Chris. Although I might not have been a member yet ( or completely forgot because of inebriation) I’m sure you will contribute well.
So you’re saying I shouldn’t look up to my grandfather for doing 40 years in with the postal service? Worked till he couldn’t walk his route anymore? Or my other grandfather who adopted my dad that worked till he died from cancer when I was a toddler? I never really even knew him. What I kno...
What size rope for the rigging Ben? Looked a bit large compared to what I’m used to. It is Sunday night though and I’ve had a few drinks. Could be standard. Lovely video by the way.
