    Holy cow

    Very cool. I just came here to make a crack about cow videos belonging in the tree free zone. What a pleasant surprise.

    Basking Ridge Oak Dismantling

    Great documentation. The big bugger deserves no less. A magnificent tree, even stone dead. Good luck with the next phase.

    Rope Runner hard to advance?

    I found resistance with the tending point on the runner being lopsided. I have a throw line loop running to the other side of the slick pin. More symmetrical

    At no point will my six year old be unsupervised climbing trees. I believe your concern is slightly reactionary.

    Kids twist mod

    My goal is to have my boy self sufficient by the end of summer. His mom said he can't climb trees without gear anymore. So he better figure it out

    Kids twist mod

    Red one in first post is the new tribe twist. Which I would recommend for the six year old. They make the kids basic with side d's as well which I would recommend for the ten year old. Both are great harnesses. My boy just graduated to the basic and he is really stoked on it.

    Kids twist mod

    She is six, so probably just positioning. Who knows how much she actually uses them. I just got a bug up my ass about it. Harness didn't look right without d's

    Kids twist mod

    Alright, tell me I am crazy. I think it's pretty legit. For the daughter, she's less than sixty lb. Gonna put some lock stitches on the knots. The knotting is super convoluted. I forgot how to do it by the time I got to the second one, took me a bit to refigure.. ?

    Swan spawn

    first two are my ten yr old, he was climbing doubled rope, on his own. Threw his TIP in three shots. Last one my six yr old she was mainly just swinging around. They both had a blast. He woke up the next morning and was out at the tree again within two hours.

    Was running this set up with two Foot ascenders the other day. I like it. Was surprised how smooth it went. Any other time I've tried ascent it was a Gotdam yard sale

    Unhappy hips

    If loaded with enough force it could pinch rope to failure. I run one as a bridge adjuster and just have a thin back up bridge that doesn't run through the rollnlock in case.

    Unhappy hips

    I haven't. It looks/feels roughly the same. Seemed like the same structure, just set up differently.

    I like the new tribe onyx. I am not terribly old, but nothing on me is happy.
