So annoying - you pay about 1 USD/pm for most of these ropes. We pay about 3UKP!
Gave the bone a new look!
Call Nod. He has a lot of stuff in stock that isn't listed on his website.

Hi Tyler, I know the nano swivel is nice and everything but it seems like the opening isn't wide enough to guest two biners...I thought having extra room for a second one would have been good to attach my voltige chest harness when I wanted to relax my shoulders...so maybe the one showing isn't the nano...maybe the stainless round small??? Is it easy on the attachment directly on the bone, like nice and even or is it too bulky? mmmmmhh not too sure what swivel is that!!!

It is very easy to attach to the bone and it is vey nice! this is the nano swivel, just without any paint. I was able to snap a photo of it with two ultra O's in it, but rotating them gets very tight.
I think it's 1US$ per foot not per meter! In Italy it's about 3.50 Euros per Meter... what a joy!
I don't understand why they choose such colors and horrible combination colors...I don't mean to be picky but it puts you in a bad mood climbing on something you hate to watch...despite the good quality and everything!
Thanks biggun...I called him and we are going to arrange something...!
Sorry I don't mean to offend anyone...it's just a matter of taste...
Cool. Nod is the man.
I got my CB off him 18 months ago. I also get most of my splicing stuff from him.

Here is my comfort mod with the shortened arms. In the last picture you can (kinda) see that the rubber bumpers fit nicely in the palm, allowing you to operate the Bone like a hitch with an index finger on top of the swivel link, and the thumb on the opposing side.
Thanks for the Cougar Worthaug. This stuff works much better than the Luna. Hooray!

Tried out my kmIII today and loved it. I hogged out the very base of the spine just for a bit more room on ascent, and it ran beautifully. Adjustable bridge, 1/2" line, clip in haas... I am a pig in shit
Is that 1/2" line available in the "max"? The max has a smoother cover due to the weave pattern than normal KMIII. Single carrier 32 strand rather than double carrier.
Hi Oceans, instead of the Alpine Butterfly you use a thimble loop...but how do you attach it to the climbing line? Maybe with a prusik? Sorry my ignorance...I'm still learning...

Look at the thimble loop on this lanyard, Tico. It's just a prusik loop with a thimble worked in. You add it to a line the same as you would a normal prusik. I think the benefit to using this over a butterfly is that you wouldn't have to take your weight off your climbing line to attach this but you would to tie the alpine butterfly.
Couldn't be any clearer...Thanks! Can you make an example of the sequence since you reach a stop using the BDB and do the swap with the lanyard using the prusik?Look at the thimble loop on this lanyard, Tico.
