    I had an interesting thing happen coming down on the akimbo the other day...you know the bottom part where your biner clips, and that bit has the 'tongue' that presses on your rope...it normally is oriented in a nearly vertical plane, with a deflection for friction...

    Absolutely, I've told many people how cool it is to have been able to watch your idea gain form and reality here at the house. I've been priveledged to climb on two devices that had their birth in the House, I think that's pretty neat. Nothing like knowing the guy who designed the Gizmo you...

    Yes, it took me a while to figure out the opening...thank goodness for YouTube. I have practiced the positioning for opening and closing. The weather has finally improved should get a test ride very soon, I want to try it first before committing to doing a job on it.

    I've only just joined the Vertical Rescue Team for the SES here (you have to be invited when a space becomes available) It certainly is an eye opener how gear intensive it is. In the short time I've been on, we did a weekend of training with all the units statewide. I have to say that the system...
