Yeah, but did you trudge through knee deep snow with brush and wood all day? Not fair man. Not fair.

Lots, as in 2. I think that's a lot for one town though?

Thanks Mike for sharing. That reminds me of the ZK-1 and before the stiff tether.
At 1:30:
I keep my tether on my chest harness and clip into the top D ring on the Bone. Keeps the Bulldog Bone clean and clear.

My body might be low on avocado right now. Don't be surprised if I'm on my side, spinning in circles on the floor until I get a fix on them nachos!

Thanks Mike for the great heads up.
I'm still with little experience but I'm wondering if going back to the spine connection whould avoid some of this,... disengage on the sit back, and tethers wrapping over the top arm scenario. I'm still figuring things out but I'm wondering if the tether I made in my post (#2036) might avoid some of this potential. In fact if the tether with spiced eyes at each end is just removed completely each time.
???? again...........just thinking.

Whatever works really. I used to get a lot of drag on ascent. I tried a lot of variations (many including the spine) and nothing seemed to tend on a weighted line as good as that top attachment point on the upper arms. Seems like the money spot for me. But I think Gordon has made some modifications since my bone was created.
I may go back to my bungee. Stays upright. Unless Eric has some of that superman throwline laying around, collecting dust : )

Thanks mike. Gordon thanks for the pm.
The only problem I have with your set up, David, is that it looks WWWAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY too nice.
Seriously...do you use it as a mirror while shaving? Do you actually SHAVE with that thing?
Where did u get that tether from and how did you attach it mate?
It took about 10 minutes to sew up. It is made with 1/2" nylon web folded over the same size D ring. It is held on by an 1/8" steel shaft. It doesn't need to be very strong as all it needs to do is tend slack.

David, that is my exact setup also. I think it works amazingly well and is simple.
Mike, I got mine from the hardware store (Lowes over here in the US). I got it over by the key rings for a couple dollars.
