    Rope bridge recommendations

    Anything thats 100% polyester is what ive been told is a safe bet. From what ive been able to find out thats what the tm stock bridges are, which from memory is globe 3000. I usually use kernmantle safari/blue tongue.

    HUMAN.....man is still at it.... THIS dude is on something

    working on the proper wrapping technique for the duct tape rigging rope. And you have to use the white $2 store painters tape for kernmantle, the easy lift blue stuff wont work with the jacket construction of kernmantle.

    HUMAN.....man is still at it.... THIS dude is on something

    Back on topic. I honestly love human, i love how hes opened up about his life experiences etc and shown his journey. That being said, i dont watch his tree work vids anymore, i cant, too many dogy moves. The constant one handing really does my head in, odd choice of cuts etc, lots of safety...

    Show off them splices

    I totally copied it from watching james Kilpatrick climb. I couldnt see exactly how his was made so this is my interpretation from a fuzzy zoomed in video of him ascending. The top splice that girths onto the hand ascender is done properly, as to say full length burries and what not, life...

    Whipping/lockstitching DB splices

Looking for people's general thoughts on whipping/lockstitching double braid climbing line splices, specifically nylon/polyester and all polyester cordage. With all of my splices...

    ART Positioner HELP!

    I don't have any slipping, I love the tritech and positioner combo, I did end up cutting the other eye off so I could milk it since it bagged up so badly but I've never had slipping.

    The splicing wand and the amazing snare

    I honestly didn't have the money for one so I got a length of 5mm aluminium rod, rounded off the end, filed a notch and drilled a hole. Used a strand out of a bit of beeline for the snair. Works great

    Boots!

    Meindl airstreams are the go to standard here, love mine, comfortable from the first day to now. Last pretty decently but don't have some of the whizz bang features of some of the other brands but comfort wise, haven't heard of anything better.
