Yes Max it is.

Ok update, once I went on the DMM site I remembered checking my swivel...but thanks for the reminder (DON"T anyone dare say anything about age lol) My Nexus is well outside the range of the recalled ones. I also have a Focus, which is unaffected. I still think they are better than the fixed...

Well there you go, no I hadn't seen that! Thanks!

It's all good Brian 🙂 I'll try and get an action shot sometime to show how close my system is. 'Looking fancy' is reserved for going to the theatre, my only concession to looking fancy in tree work is to make sure I'm colour coordinated :lol: The rope bridge is the standard issue that comes with...

Good post, I've been wondering the same thing lately, every so often in my meanderings round the canopy I'll get a twist or two in the legs of my line...great to read the replies, I'll stick to having to pirouette in the tree from time to time, can do a lot of those for $90!
