I don't like that D set up....looks like it is put together with loop runners. I have had loop runners fail spider legging and speed lining.

KF I checked on Bashlins site and there is no mention of it. What else do you know about it?

not much, i saw them in the fresco catalog, which i tossed in the trash last week. if i remember corectly they made 2 different style's. i like the wide back on it.

Fresco is the only site I could find any info about this saddle on. Has anyone actually climbed in it? I am in the market for a new saddle. My Petzl keeps on floating up to my ribs and gets to be a PITA.

Loop runners are just like any other fabric gear we use IMO. 1" nylon should have a 4k MBS, I use them all the time anytime I need a custom length I cut it off a reel of tubing.

1300lbs on 2 slings:

NICE !! very nice work my brother !!!

 

[Lumberjack]

There is a 2300lb piece, again 2 1" nylon straps, but basketed with a clove hitch on the piece (but offset so it wouldnt bend the sling and derate the strength.

The X I've seen is not pink, it's orange, yellow, and black. It matches Blaze.

I think the color is off in that photo.

I thought the same thing Nicky, Fresco's 2004 catalog I believe, perhaps the 05 issue.

Looks like a scary design for a big boy like me. I would feel like I am hanging in the tree by a thong Looks like there's nothing to it.

The thought of that is bound to give you nightmares. SORRY
