Homemade gaff guards

[LordFarkwad]

The new ones do. I have them on my cf geckos, which are the widest and thickest, from what I understand. Have you tried the updated version?

You serious, Clark?

No - I read somewhere they didn't work, so I didn't even try. Believe mine are the new ones; got them in June of this past year, I think.

If they have the tabs at the tops, they’re the updated version.

They are the 2's, and they have little ears that stick out on each side of the 'cuff' (part which snaps over shank). Sound right? I'll go out and try them at some point this evening.

Leaving this here for general info, for posterity, etc....

You were right, @Crimsonking - the Notch Gaff Guardian II's worked excellently on the Gecko's. They snapped right on there, and the cuffs are simply bent out a little farther than they had been with the Climb Right's.

I added a Kiwi Klimber to my Geckos this weekend (ascender on right, spacer on left), and the Gaff Guardians became more snug as a result of the upper portion of the spur pushing out on the cuff of the GG. It still fits, however - just a heads up.

I didn’t realize they’d work with the kiwi ascender- that’s cool!

I won't say it's not a tight fit, but...

Nice!
