    Wanted Arbpro Quickstep

    Not many Germans on here, or Europeans in general, you might have better luck on a german forum. Btw, where in Germany are you?

    Best non protective boots

    I'm wearing Salomon ultra 3 mid gtx, foot ascender holds great on them, pretty flexible sole, great traction, but not so aggressive that it rips beech bark. I needed the wide model, which is hard to find. Even that felt very narrow at first, but now they're great. Haven't worn a different pair...

    Advice to Construct a Tree Climbing Safety Line

    I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "high level anchor line". I do have some other questions though. What kind of harness do you have exactly? How exactly do you plan on connecting yourself to the cables? Are you going to use the system for fall arrest/restraint, or work positioning?

    Advice to Construct a Tree Climbing Safety Line

    I'm not entirely sure how you want your safety system to work, it sounds to me like you basically want to build a via ferrata in the tree. I don't think that's the best idea, although it would be possible to some extent and could be used relatively safely. I do think there are much better...

    Best Saw for a NOOB hand?

    I guess if you're fine with having one battery, it would be alright. I'm not a fan of their chain tensioner, I have experience with them on a corded dolmar, they are terrible. Get one so we don't gave to.

    Best Saw for a NOOB hand?

    I would say no, Makita you can use the batteries for other tools.

    Unicender 3-1 MA and other uses

    Yeah, both EN 12275 and EN 362 require only 20kN.

    Unicender 3-1 MA and other uses

    No, it's a 3:1, because you are the one pulling on the end, making the upper pulley a moving one. It's the same system as RADS. The Rollclip is intended for life support, the manual shows it being used on a bridge to connect your climbing system. It's only 20kN though, so maybe under your...

    You tie the lanyard directly to the Dring with the becket hitch.

    Q('s) on kick-back, especially in-canopy / top-handled saws

    I hear a lot of people put 1/4" 1.1mm (0.43"?)on the echo. That would require a sprocket change, 3/8 1.1mm uses the same sprocket as the stock chain.

    Knot for hanging tire swing?

    Here in Germany chains are standard on playground swings. Probably mainly for longevity and tamperproofing reasons. But I know regulations are quite strict for potential spots one could injure themselves at.

    Hasty harness ??

    No. Maybe a rescue diaper or similar. Don't know if you consider that hasty though. What do you need it for?

    Climbing Pants

    I'm wearing the Clogger spider pants almost daily, very comfortable. Pockets could be better though for my applications..

    Moss Cinching Lanyard prototype

    I often just take another wrap through the carabiner if I'm at a union but want a single line lanyard. If I need to cinch though, I will, and take wraps if it's to skinny.

    Moss Cinching Lanyard prototype

    Whether that's sideloading is a matter of debate and depends on the diameter of the trunk or limb. A steel carabiner is the best choice when using a carabiner.

    Looking for a new harness

    Why the Treecore or the Tree access? What about them do you like? I've worn the Treecore, not very comfortable for me, but maybe it wasn't adjusted properly. I'm 6', also skinny. I had the same issue you had with the backpad on the Tree Austria. I do like the modularity of the Treecore though...

    Leave rope out for months

    Oh, ok. semi-static is the same as static in my experience, maybe it's a european thing. I just got a hank of 10.5mm patron, it comes with the standard manual for kermantle ropes.
