The traveling ONYX is on it's way to Brendonv.

Sorry everyone! I've been away from the forum and in turn holding the Onyx captive! Looks like Brendonv is next? Brendonv check your pm. Loved the saddle!!! Tip, take some time to dial it in.

Indeed it did! Only used it on one climb so far. Who is next in line?

Would scaffold knots be a better choice for bridge attachment?

Looks like Wood slinger has it

IF no one else is in line I'll take it. PM you my address

OSHA Standard: 1926.502(d)(14) "Ropes and straps (webbing) used in lanyards, lifelines, and strength components of body belts and body harnesses shall be made from synthetic fibers."

I am surprised I cannot find anything on the subject, OSHA, ANSI or EHAP

Couldn't find it in the EHAP manual either...

Does anyone know if there is a OSHA or ANSI rule that says yay or nay on steel core lanyards while working near power lines? looking for the specific standard ID if there is one Thanks!

I modified my CMI foot ascender into a knee ascender... I have cleaned it up since this picture but you get the idea

Have there been any 2nd generation zig zag failures reported?

Gem, Try wearing the waist belt lower toward your hips rather then in the small of your back. Then adjust the length of the leg straps that connect to the back of the waist belt until it holds you in a comfortable upright position. Wearing the belt lower will keep it out of your ribs.

Flip those riggin plates around so the large hole is facing out and change the color I would be all over it.

Proud moment for me..... we started slow and went to about 20' and he did great... Owen wanted to go all the way to the top. maybe next climb. He has been asking me for about a year to go climbing and got his wish. Props to New Tribe on there kids twist saddle, works perfectly!
