    X Rigging Rings, thoughts

    For people who like the idea of a big ring here is your chance. http://www.treebuzz.com/forum/threads/x-ring-ring-and-ring-sling-info.34994/ I think the short story of it is about $200 per ring and a production run for a specific number of pre ordered rings will happen soon. (Just go to the...

    I can't speak for David Frans but I really doubt it given the response I gathered from him when that big ring was first shown. Also if you were on the ground when David or Lawrence load up a single line or double line rigging set with log I don't think you would see the need for any more...

    Good of you to acknowledge not watching a lot of vid. I have watched everything I could find on XRR's because I was so excited about them. (Then went and worked with David for a couple of weeks to learn more - so I'm not an impartial observer.) But, the thing that struck me from your post...

    I would say one other thing now. As with most tools, with the right technique or a little more effort there is some way to screw em up. Turns out the perfect way to do some of that with the Rings is to run muddy rope through them. I guess it has about the effect that running 100 feet of sand...

    Ha, ha, ha, I wasn't "wondering." Great video with a lot to think about and appreciate about the uses of XRRings Reg. Thanks for making it and for putting it out there. XRR's have put a lot of the fun back in tree work for me because there is so much you can do with them and so many creative...

    In one of David Driver's earliest videos of the Rings, "Testing to Destruction" I believe, he said that when you do throw enough at them to get the 'system' to fail, what fails is not the X Rigging Ring or the X Rigging Ring Sling. What fails is the rigging rope when put through a single Ring...
