    When You Don't Have the Right Gear...

    I took a friend rec climbing the other week and somehow left my Rope Runner at home. I was going to use the runner and have her on a hitch climber/wrench. Ended up putting her on a hitch climber DRT while I managed to use a wire gate carabiner to attach my wrench tether (Caralink-type) to the...

    Is This How TreeStuff Ships Life Support Hardware?

    I just received a replacement Rope Runner friction body from TreeStuff, and am very concerned about the packaging, and therefore concerned about the safety of the friction body. The friction body was in a ziplock bag in a thickened (not sure I'd consider this padded) envelope, and that's it. The...

    Lots of extra gear--DMM, Rock Exotica, Petzl, New Tribe Basic, Silky Long Boy

    Going through my miscellaneous gear box and realized I probably wasn't going to get much use out of these. Most of this is very lightly used, if at all. It's basically stuff I thought I'd use that I wasn't able to incorporate int my setup. (Edited to only show what's still available) DMM...

    Makeshift Wrench and Tether(we'll see how well it works)

    Made in one evening of stuff I had just lying around, that I wasn't using for anything else. I haven't put body weight on it yet, but it seems to tend and grab all right.

    Why no hitch for SRT?

    The question is this: Why can't you climb SRT on just a hitch? My understanding: The way we tie hitches for DRT does not work for SRT, because the hitch will bind up, making descent impossible. But why? If you are 200lbs climbing DRT with a hitch on some kind of pulley saver, your hitch and...

    Friction Saver Rings? Buckingham? DMM?

    We have a few friction savers at work made by Buckingham, and I've become a big fan of their rings. They are fatter than most, and have a super durable coating. It looks to me like some kind of epoxy (like the green epoxy coated rebar) that is super wear resistant, but the information online...

    Lightest/Most Comact Climbing Set Up

    Hey all, I'm traveling home from college for the holidays and will be getting around by bike. I figured I'd lighten up my system as much as possible so I can travel with it and get in a good bit of rec climbing while I'm there. I have a standard Treemotion, and for sure will be bringing my 110'...

    Rigging Ring Desires/Suggestions

    I'm working on a project for an engineering class involving arborist rigging rings. What do you like about them? What improvements would you like to see in them? How do they wear out? In what situations/applications have you found them to be unsatisfactory?
