What Style Climbing Hooks?

[MasterBlaster]

Just curious.

 

[brendonv]

Steel Bucks with velcro pads.

Pretty much boat anchors attatched to my feet.

 

[SkwerI]

Titaniums with velcro pads.

 

[No_Bivy]

bucks with super wrap pads...but carbon gecks are on my radar.

 

[rumination]

Titaniums with velcro pads.

Ditto.

I had the Kleins with Caddies, and always thought they were great.
Last year I bought a pair of Geckos and nothing compares!!

Super lightweight and far more comfortable than even the Caddies.

If your considering an upgrade you wont be disappointed!!

 

[lumberjack]

Steel bucks and velcro.

 

[Al Smith]

Antique Bashlins,antique pads ,antique climber .:roll:

 

[pete mctree]

geckos- given the choice i will never climb in anything else

 

[xtremetrees]

Buckinghams, leather pads. 10 years old they are.
Pair of kleins waiting to step into.

 

[FJR]

Geckos . . . and love them.

 

[No_Bivy]

carbon?

 

[FJR]

No carbon fiber ... not yet anyways I picked my geckos up two years ago.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I wonder who will be the first TreeHouser to get some carbon fiber geckos? I hope it's ME.

 

[Greenhorn]

geckos, but with American style gaffs on them

 

[pete mctree]

Aluminium ones here- with the velcro foot straps-

Most of the brits I know with them have the carbon fibre ones

 

[Burnham]

Bashlin Alcoas, with caddie pads. Been climbing in those for 15 years or so. I started out with steel Buckinghams.

I am pretty sure I'll be sporting a set of CF Geckos in a month or so, and I'll order them with the American style tree gaffs. The race is on, Butch!

 

[Mr. Sir]

Bashlin Aluminum with Super Wrap velcro pads.

 

[MasterBlaster]

The race is on, Butch!

First I gotta talk myself into hanging up my good 'ole caddy set-up.

 

[Bounce]

Buckingham steel with ultra stiff wrap pads

I dont really see the hype in the carbon fibers. Standard alum. Geckos only weigh 4.3 pounds per pair. How much lighter can they be?
