We knew the rope smoking would raise some eyebrows! ![]() Yes, about the wraps it was correct if u watch the video again you will notice which way the ropes are running and it was tired like a half hitch. When the rope stopped running, it slightly melted together. ACE | |

Yeah, with a decent load over the tail it would just stop and lock itself anyway. What was that rope, tennex?

Jeez, it flattened it out like ribbon hey. Buy them and burn them. Hey Ace, how much you paying for a 100m roll, up here I can get 16mm double braid $312.54 but it's only 5300kg breaking strength.

Never seen a 90m. Seen a video of a 100m but that was a semi trailer. The unit that was all on one truck was like the size of a 15 axle crane. Got pics of what you might be getting?

Holy Crap! I reckon you could hire that out at amusement parks. People would pay money to go up for a scary ride. |
