Replacement pole gaffs for Gecko Dmm aluminum

I’m just wondering if anyone out there knows where I can find some replacement pole gaffs for my first generation aluminum red gecko tree climbing spurs, I want to give Pole gaffs a try, I find that the spikes on the tree gaffs are too long on small diameter tops etc. I feel like it’s like working on stilts, and at times it’s difficult to maintain balance and cut at the same time, which could be hazardous… I feel like if my boots made some contact with the tree I would have better balance and foot placement. Even if someone knows a link or a place where I could order them that would be fine.


Thanks
 
Hollar at me. I got a old pair gecko aluminums but never saw a dmm tag on em.
I got a set of brand new unused gecko pole spikes bc I felt the same way about my geckos until I stumbled ona pair of mint old buck steel spikes and tried out caddy pads and I love em

Had to use the star key on a socket wrench to break the old screws loose and install the new ones, 10 minute job and they look really cool. Sorta low profile. Hopefully will be a lot more comfortable climbing with them.

Heat them up with a torch to break the lock tight bond. Don’t to crazy, nothing hotter than water sizzle, but just about rapid evaporation is just a little too much to just right

Hey Man, thanks if there the ones I’m looking for I would totally buy them, not sure the process. I can get a pair here in Ontario for about $100 at a retailer
 
climbed in them today. two big pine removals, solid 6 hours. gaffed out more than once but the bark was flaky and I was obviously getting used to them, but at some point I realized I had not been thinking about my spurs and just climbing. That's what we want in gear, that it just work so well that we focus on the woek instead. Definitely an upgrade. Comfort level unchanged, but pretty stoked onthe pole gaffs!
