    Cactus don't grow in concrete. No Phoenix doesn't limit the amount of grass you can plant, the residents do that to themselves. Everyone gravels their yard because they can't be bothered to mow. Large swaths of grass, in extremely hot environments have an evaporative cooling effect, while...

    Grass in cities is important. It helps alleviate the urban heat island effect. The Phoenix metro area needs more of it. But LA keeps taking all our water because we got screwed on a treaty a hundred years ago. Oh, and screw Mexico, they dont even get a Colorado River.

    They're called "Wonder Knots" as in "I wonder how that got there?" They are an inevitable fact of life with throw lines, from everything I've ever seen.

    New intro needs a bit of work. Is good, can be better. Nice stock photos of trees, but get some photos that you took of real trees up, break up that Google stuff. Montage is nice, but visually repetitive. That's something you'll have to work with, reordering those same clips can work, but you...

    I'm 6'2" and 165lbs. no body fat, but I climb so infrequently that I'm out of condition for the job, at least in my opinion. My cousin carries an extra 40lbs or so, but because he climbs every day, moves much easier through a canopy than I do. Albeit, the gulf of difference in experience also...

    We love you, you kinky phuk! Lolz. What's your opinion of Technora? Have you had the opportunity to play with that stuff much? My main attraction is its fire/heat resistance, for various reasons.

    Knoto and his kinks are so far over my head, I mostly don't bother trying to keep pace. Blake's Hitch FTW! I'm a simple wood butcher, I need not pretend to sophistication. The kid and I do enjoy watching him though, if only because he's in Arizona. Not sure how my daughter will feel about...

    Novice! Neophyte! There is no white or black, just as there is no light or dark gravity! Magic is a just a thing, a force, there without intention or design. Back to the vaults. You are in need of much toiling. Return to transcribing the crumbling grimoirs of dead mages, the capabilities of...

    Lolz no, I meant down with the like button, so I don't have to post an actual reply, just more effectively acknowledge the post. Also, for some reason, this phone ghosts all of those buttons, can't use them, hence the various other tactics I've used for emphasis lately, since I've been robbed of...

    We need more emojies. I didn't haha, but I did smile. We could also do with OooOoo and ewww or perhaps icky. If I'm gonna keep playing in the political threads, I'm gonna campaign for a poop button.

    Could mean nothing, could mean a revolution in gaffs. Enough R&D could lead to more ergonomic climber frames, and a "perfected" gaff angle and shape, and even location, possibly tailored to species or characteristics of the wood. Any and all of this could lead to more efficient climbing, and...

    What about a sprung system between the Gaff, device, and the climber? I've seen such gaffs before, on this very forum, for climbing dead eucs as I recall. Perhaps such a system could be used to reduce the human variable. Also, there are far more proficient gaff climbers than myself, who might be...

    Joan, Gertrude, Massdam and blocks, my neighbor's big Case backhoe. Lots of ways to pull a rope, both slowly and quickly. I like the idea of a LoadCell3 installed into a climbimg system, it goes with my earlier post about gear being stronger than people. I've always wondered... If someone...

    Also, Ryan is very busy guy. Give him time, he's got quite a few irons in the fire. I appreciate the sheer number of break tests he has on the channel. While I can say I've learned an awful lot, there's one main takeaway. I break before most all of my gear, by orders of magnitude.
