NICE vid!!!

Made in Dee-troit!

I liked seeing you drop through the natural redi at the end. That is one of the big advantages of SRT.

I was saving my 1000th post for something good. How about congratulations to you. Super demo and product.

I've gone hardcore.

Very nice demo Kevin!
I have had the ZK1 for about a week and think it's great. I like it a lot combined with the uni and tacyon. It allows superb control on descents by just squeezing the cams as opposed to having to loop the rope around the uni like I used to do.
With a hitch and pulley I enjoyed it the best with 11mm KMIII but overall after more than two years with the uni I dont care to go back to a hitch in regular work setting. Thank a bunch for improving my climbing system with this tool.

Thank you Luke for getting those out to me and for being a great supplier all around.

I shouldn't have watched that.

Now i want one. I swapped over to srt ascents about a month back, and makes any other entry into the tree seem foolish. I love efficiency, especially when it means not abusing my body!

Truly brilliant. Beauty in simplicity.

What a great animation! I've fallen in love with my rope wrench already! Thanks Kevin and Treestuff!

I watched a guy win the OTCC masters challenge using a metal rope wrench in combination with his friction hitch. He descended from his last station srt. I liked seeing it.

Good job with that idea.
