All of the above.

Rescue/self rescue. Practice techniques that do not further harm the victim. Some of the things I've seen at comps... Leave me in the dadgum tree, I'll sort my self out or die trying...

Broccoli bands are awesome!

At the risk of sounding like an idiot, I believe the hole and spacing are 1/2 inch for both measurements. Someone else help, it's a REALLY long dig through stuff to find mine, else I'd have sent it off to someone when all that was goin round.

I remember seeing elsewhere on the forum, the Unicender set up with a 3:1. That said, do so with caution. Any situation that could squeeze the top and bottom plates together will release the device, after all. Also I've never used any MA set up whilst limbwalking. The thought simply never...

Big talk from folks who've never ridden the wind to the ground. You'd be less trusting of others knots too. How long does it take to untie theirs and tie your own, just to silence one of the voices screaming in your head?

Haha that's the stuff Monkey Beaver uses for bridges! I don't care for it anymore than you do I think, but I've got a kink for green... it's certianly strong enough for the task. When I re-tied the stopper knots it had decent hand. Dunno about you guys, but I don't much like trusting my life...

I don't own a knee or hand ascender anymore, someone liked it more than me I guess. I've got a notch jet step and I love it. Most of my climbing is on spurs and flipline, when I'm playing with SRT, it's deadwooding smaller pines. My method is throwline-swear-word-game, choke climbline off as...

Makes a handlebar.

Ya know, I was really tempted to post something "Murica", but instead I'll take the history lesson and go do some reading, broaden my horizons...

Phuck you, and your pedantry! Typically, black dye is made from high concentrations of a single dark color like black or green. So there! 😝 Edit: BLUE or green...stupid fingers...

Or you could make one out of a cheap flexible cutting board, for the princely sum of a whole dollar at the Walmart...

Faffed, I'm the only other non brit outside my family I've ever known to use that word and derivatives. Is it common in Taz? Or is that your other colonial roots? I've been trying to replace the F bomb with faff and faffishness for my daughters' sake. P.S. sorry about the faff, marm. I can't...

All that is above is true, but I argue one more point for mechanical devices: compactness. The Uni, Rope Runner, and Akimbo are very compact devices, allowing you to rig your connection low and out of your face. Your milage may very, but that's something I find important, 80ft aloft with a...

I fail to see how. I should point out that the Unicender has two modes of decent, squared. SRT, you wrap the rope, OR, clamp the plates to decend. DRT, you clamp the plates to decend, OR wrap them to waste time, since the friction of DRT is enough to slow you to the point where a wrap...

See, that's why newbies are intimidated. I know it's expensive but just grab a Unicender and an 11mm static rope. Clip the Uni to your bridge and get to work... It self tends on minimal weight, there's no adjusting crap, it's midline attachable, faster than anything else I've seen. SRT, DRT...

Baby steps my Canadian brother, that's what we're here for, to disseminate our knowledge. In this case, the dumb questions are the ones unasked, we wouldn't want you hurt.

Ooh, Threadcromancy! I'll add my $0.02 I love my Unicender, and I love my Monkey Beaver 2.0 harness and suspenders. I do not always like how they work together when ropewalking. I'm just not a big fan of the chest clip, my device is never where I want it, and I just don't like it. So I use...
