For years now I've been using an old eye2eye with a small non locking biner around the neck or my lanyard over the shoulder to tend my system. I feel like it's time for something better and a bit more comfortable. What are you guys using?
Not gonna lie I completely forgot about this and it didn't come to me where I've seen those springs. Why not just contact the manufacturer and ask them?
I've seen these same springs used in the applications I just can't think of it right now. Now that it's on my mind it'll come to me later in the day. I'll chime back in once I remember.
I just find by the time I get a loopie adjusted properly, especially on big wood, I can hitch up a dead eye and already have my saw in the wood. Dead eyes I can get much tighter making for a cleaner setup. That's just me though.
Just bought a 5/8 loopie recently. Broke it out for a small hickory trunk last weekend and remembered why I stopped using them like 4 years ago. Dead eyes for blocking and ultra slings for everything else.
Looking to put together an extra set of gear to train my groundie. Right now just need a saddle and spurs. Saddle must be rope bridge and leg straps and spurs I would prefer aluminum or titanium bucks but will entertain some steelies also. Not really concerned about pads unless they are...
