DM sentWoodCutr,
DM me your address and I’ll send you a Roll’n’Lok to try (as soon as I find where I put it!)
I had the Roll’n’Lok on my bridge for a while but found I hardly ever used it. Switched it out with my most recent bridge change. Almost no wear on it at all.
one of many reasons I decided to try itthey are sweet for hip thrusting or anything like that if you still do ddrt (or whatever they call it this week). You can run a long bridge, and then you just pull the tail, self tending hand over hand ascents
update for you, still using it to this day but its on my dads saddle, I gave that one to him and bought a treemotion, havent felt the need for an adjustable bridge so much any more, if I do decide to get one then I will probably get an ART positioner to adjust itLooks good. We have 150 lb test zip-ties we use for breakaways on lanyards when dismantling sketchy trees while staying ‘on the crane hook’. I found that had the girth and strength to hold it well. I should have thought to toss one in when I mailed it ☹️
I use SRT on spars, cant recall the last time I used DRT for anything other than when I forgot my unicender or something and had to use 2 lines to have a double tie in while taking out some trees that fell on a house during a landslideFwiw, minimizing the distance of your climb line to saddle while maintaining some light taut-ness, in the emergency situation of accidentally cutting your lanyard to failure, should greatly increase the chance of keeping your spurs in the spar for the greatest amount of time and swinging into your climbing system, rather than a fall and very jolting stop.
If you are not using a choking system, the MRS may not catch you.
Did you see the recent video of the guy sliding to the ground, racing the tree top down?
im having a moment myself lol, first time ive logged into this forum in months, and I had 2 notifications, yay lolWow, talk about a "blast from the past!" I started reading this under the false assumption that it was a new thread, but in reality that is hardly the case. It's always nice when an old thread's stage two "comeback" burners begin to fire, accelerating its overall proverbial velocity through the 4-dimensional space that makes up the World Wide Web.
spar work for meSo why do folks need an adjustable bridge? What issue does it solve for you? Curious
