Any word if the wrench is legal yet in ga comps? If not what about the F8 revolver?

According to the Georgia Arborist Association's emails, they will be following the ITCC rules and rulebook. I take that to mean that they are NOT allowing any tools or techniques that wouldn't be allowed at ITCC.
 
With any luck the new ITCC Rule book will be out by this comp....

I'm certain that the top leaders at ITCC have finally decided that they MUST address SRT Work Positioning and the inconsistencies with their acceptance of so-called "safe" systems and their non-acceptance of potentially safer systems....

Surely they wouldn't continue the farce for another year.....surely?
 
The Holiday INN is about 3 miles (IF THAT) from the event site. There are other places to stay just on down the road a bit. Other local towns are, Flowery Branch and Oakwood. HA HA - get that, Flowery branch and Oakwood. Ok - it was a tree joke that OH never mind. Those two towns are on the same side of the lake. Other locations are Buford and Sugar Hill, they are about 15 miles along 985.

See ya there.

jz - raising her hand to Volunteer again.
 
Will we be graced by your presence oh great and wonderful Geezer champ?

My hope is to be there help out Eric. Would love to meet up with you and the Georgia crew again.

Of course, if SRT work positioning is not allowed I won't be allowed to leave the ground : (
 
That would be great. I was sorry I couldn't be at Geezers, but had to bow out at the last minute. I look forward to meeting up again. I need to pick you brain a bit. Also want to talk a bit on SRT and the Wrench.
