game on for sure! can't wait to see if scoring changes are to follow???

I was thinking of retiring after 20yrs competing but only way I was going to compete next year is if SRT (RW) would be allowed.
Hopefully the other SRT devices will follow suite and be allowed.

Going to be fun again, boo yah bitches!
 
I'm from the Philadelphia area . It is just hard for me to swallow bullsh*t . I'll be at the ITCC this year , I will be watching and taking notes . Something seems so crooked about this single line , and it's just rubbing me wrong . I will let you know ! I remember a time back in 94 they(blair) said a sailing winch is no good . Amazing how a taut line hitch got us to where we are now . Can't make money off a taut line hitch , that's a dangerous knot ( but the only one you can tie one hand under load ) but hey! that's all good , but , I am not going to say it ... I will though after my Wisconsin trip . Because it is what it is .... I am a product of my environment , wait till I post my notes . No charge . My critique . I'll keep it real , real " ain't " cool . We'll see . I 'm not selling , I'm telling . Broke country club and I can't be bought . see you at the ITCC .
 
Such a downer. My chapter is "waiting to see how things play out at the international comp" before deciding on the configuration issue. I felt the latest user update, the one that gained acceptance, could be interpreted as an example of good configuration. I was secretly hopeful, but I expected this outcome.

From someone who's used the rope wrench nearly every day for 2 years without incident: thank you to everyone who's worked to promote its safe and accepted use. Keep it up, the truth cannot be denied.

Rocket, doesn't sound too promising for our chapter. I guess they're enforcing the beeline/kernmaster schwabisch configuration for the ITCC, so they probably will for us too. I'm not going to run out and buy a hank of a rope I don't love to use it once so I'll probably be running DdRT. I guess I'd better start practicing. I only run doubled when I'm doing small removals where I'd have to move my TIP a lot. Other than that I'm on the Rope Runner or the Wrench.
