Fair call Ray, I don't want you to think the time wasn't well spent and it was a pleasure to met you as well as cruise in the jeep ( nicely set up too folks) hope I get to return the hospitality one day. (y)

No sweat man, I'm just excited to see what you do with it. I'm fairly certain we'll all benefit from your unique take on SRT climbing.

I'd love a chance to take a crack at one of those lemon scented monsters. If I ever fall into some cash, I'll come down and check out Adelaide City!

Ben, you are going to save so much energy ascending Srt. My breathing gets heavy watching you man pull your ass up the entire tree. I mean.....I can remember the exhaustion :ROFLMAO:

that was the startling part how easy it was to ascend and then pow up pops Ray like smoke almost scared the crap out of me like some tree ninja :eek:
as with the x-rings it is a matter of time as I work the changes into my dino thinking of climbing :)
 
I got into srt only after Ben made a comment to me about not taking lunch in the big euc,how it's so easy to get back up that it's worth the effort to have lunch on the ground. Lol,i thnkn wtf,easy?!?I instinctively assumed you were on srt ascent and dove in head first myself.

You gonna enjoy incorporating srt into your regular routines and it will soon replace your current style im sure. Thank you for that Ben [emoji6]
The next day...

They treated you well, Ben! If I become wealthy I'll ship you over my BDB and have Surveyor make me up another one. I think it makes the whole SRT experience come together, along with one of Richard's SAKA's.

Cheers!

Umm I may owe you an apology? or accept your thanks? either way not quite sure what wire crossed where so if you are benefiting from the exchange and I look slightly foolish for not adopting my own advice then so be it? :)
looked nice and smooth in the video anyways.(y)
happy to help out, I defend to the death your right to be misinformed :D

Mark these people were the epitome of hospitality , in fact I only had one rude encounter with a USA citizen during my whole time there and He didn't even have the manners to take it up directly so no balls there.
maybe Colorado is an exception but I was impressed with the level of manners displayed by everyone I met.
not so common over here these days unfortunately .
Now anytime you hit that motherlode just let me know :envidioso I will give that BDB a loving home alright :love:
seriously that is a kind thing to offer and well appreciated .
Ben.
 
Epic @Stihlmadd , just about to leave the states now myself, nice to see that vid bro.
I wouldn't worry about using it for everything just yet , try settting a line and using it for ascent and a little bit of work on the way up and switch over to dbrt when you are at the top. the more you get used to it the more you will see the benefits , i know a few people who have tried it and have been put off by the learning curve ......... fight the good fight brother.

:ROFLMAO:
Hey there Jesse :hola:
yeah that was pretty much how I thought about playing it out ascents and work on the start and then switch over for the rest of the day ( excluding a lunch run) and build the system into place from there.
Some one lit a rocket under me now I gotta get moving and grooving :sorprendido3:
perfectly good wrench sitting in the kit bag ready to install don't even have to go climbing to find one :) he he he
on another note will you be posting some pics and vid on those stonking rec climbs held recently on the west coast?
shame I couldn't tee up a meet with you guys by all the content Ive seen it was a mad time.
there is still a cross tasman visit to tick off the bucket list so keep it in mind next time you head back to NZ.
