    I miss posting pictures on Treebuzz

    Permanent friction saver options.

    "Recommended 6-12 month inspection cycle"

    Permanent friction saver options.

    My understanding is that it is steel core and rope sheath, but they function independently for redundancy. On the web site it does say for semi-permanent canopy anchor

    Permanent friction saver options.

    Just came across this on my daily checks of multiple internet arb shops to look at the shiny things and fibres....then remembered this topic had recently come up....this may a good low cost/impact tool that could be left in the tree for long periods with regular inspection

    Apples growing on orange tree?

    Guns, Germs and Steel gives an excellent reason for the introduction of religeon into society. Plain and simple...a controlling mechanism. Chiefs would claim they were the divine and could speak with their god(s), people would worship these gods and chiefs and that is how they remained powerful...

    Cheeky rec climb in Aus

    Happy to see a picture of something that isn't ablaze. Hopefully some rain is in the forcast and all the extremely hard working people trying limit the damage can get some much needed R and R. Stay safe

    SRT Aerial Rescue

    I feel that it should be theoretically possible...obviously an access line set by the climber would be ideal. In an emergency, I feel I would attempt to make a rescue using the retrieval end for initial access and once in the canopy I would deploy a rescue line where I needed it to be. This is...

    How do you “ethically” ascend redwoods with weak anchor branches?

    I would also like to give him a shout out to his youtube channel. He has a new silky smooth ascent video up....nice lid by the way. His other stuff is youtube gold as well. Based on his experience and the proof in the proverbial boob tube...When he talks about redwood climbing, cutting, falling...

    Biners and friction savers

    Just a couple of the worlds best climbers...Scott Forrest, James Killpatrick Champions on moving rope. I don't believe it is dead. Just sayin

    Bandit GM or Ford Gas engine??

    "Best selling truck"....only because GMC and Chevrolet wear a different badge. Combine the two and it isn't even close....full disclosure I am from a G.M employee family and will have a bias opinion.

    what is model of rope is better to use with zigzag and chicane?

    Have you used this rope? It has been in my shopping cart for a few weeks now and was wondering how it was. I believe it is not available to me until November, but I am very interested in hearing more about it

    UK. Two ropes at all times(USA next?)

    Not overly surprised that ISC is endorsing this technique...or any gear manufacturers for that matter. What it truly means is that every climber needs to have double of everything they alreadt own. I am willing to bet that the producers of such fine climbing equipment were very interested in...

    Ring and ring with x rigging rings

    You can do a locked brummel on both ends, but your second brummel would have to be a re-weave which can be tricky. If you have good braiding skills then you can pull it off. I have done it once with moderate success. You need to tape off where your measurement is then unbraid all the strands...

    Strength Training Programs and the Off Season

    The best off season training programs at the highest level of professional sport follow a principle called Periodization. The idea is that every 3-6 weeks your training program switches phases with different training priorities. This causes "muscle confusion" and eliminates plateaus. The best...

    Strength Training Programs and the Off Season

    Definitely in the cold....I have also been very diligent in my pre climb warm up. Climbing trees and working in them is a very strenuous activity and it requires the same rates of percieved exertion as a workout in the gym. A good dynamic warm up will go along way to help prevent injury. Tree...
