Nice Mod Jimmy.
Here's a UNI with the 'L' on the bottom. It tends really well but I think I'd like to see more to keep the tail inside -- like this here pulley mod.
When I get through ascending, I unclip the top from the wire gate carabiner. Having three sizes of ISC 'biners made it easy to tune.
Just want to chip in about the UNI. I was skeptical at first but jumped on my chance to get one late last year.
I ascend even short hops with it in a rope walker config, adding a Pantin and hand ascender and foot loop. UNI does well in RADS and DdRT, or just foot-locking up, too.
Again, its...

Oh man! Climbing without the BEES! Y'all gather round dis vun. 'Specially sudden Canadians.
Good luck on your quest,

So, is the Awakenings forum doing its job?
When a report of a chipper part crashing through someone's house comes through do you put a little extra effort in seeing things are properly bolted on yours?
When we see someone's bridge fail do you check yours?
Do you put your protective pants on...
Space debris!? Very grateful that no one was hurt.
The talk around the shop was amazing.
Would the operators be able to know that a piece of the machine itself got launched out; with the velocity it takes to put a 5 pound chunk nearly a quarter of a mile away?
The photo used in the paper was...

Curtis, Good to hear from ya!

I've found a ritual once a week of throwing the whole thing out, over a limb or as far as I can pitch the bag onto a lawn. Then taking off the bag if its on the ground or let 'er spin over a crotch. It avoids the snarls that take half an hour to work out. Avoids-- still get 'em, though.

Thanks Dan.
All of my callers wished they could have accessed the site more directly-- anyone think they have a method to let the local municipalities know about it?
Or, is there a way to stuff the site with tags so Google picks it up more frequently?
I could be out on a limb.
Thanks for posting your account, Scotty. Glad you are on the mends and nothing more extreme happened.
Thirty two feet per second per second-- the rate at which gravity sucks.
Is there an adjacent, perceptively healthier tree adjacent for a primary or redundant TIP?
I got reminded in a class a couple of days ago to inspect all the way up, not just where the rope goes. Good to hang around and ask quesions of other arbos. The last thing I need to be thinking on the way...
Hey,
This weekend was fun. Totally spur-of-the-moment, I met Tom and Nevic and then helped at the CTW. Its tough to be just slightly under-dressed for the weather. Should have climbed a tree. That meant supper was not only a generous teppanyaki order, but a dinner-sized sushi roll.
