as we mentioned before in the board.
just wondering when we are going to come to the Araps to have a look and see what needs to be done. (anchors? study etc).
im interested in having a look the same as we did over at straddie.
can we invite the TV along. (it would be a lot of fun getting it on the news).
ive developed a book on the straddie trip for all to read and keep. anyone want a copy ill have my USB drive with me.
let me know
thanks
Clinton

No. A TV circus at Arapiles would not be fun.

If you want to do the tyrolean because you enjoy being on the rope then enjoy. If you are doing these to get your face on TV, plenty of better ways to get attention with the wanted result...

there looks like a victorian effort going into this again. this time i think we will need more pulleys. there where 3 in operation on straddie. maybe we need pulley posties to keeep returning the pulleys to the other end. or a bit of string to pull the pulley back to the other end yeh.
i can see a traffic jam at the start line other wise........now where did the pulley go....--->

It seems this time round might be a solo mission Clinton.

Is there anyone, apart from Phil Box, who has the gear to rig an Arapiles tyrolean?

why. so your saying ill have to do this alone. building a long tyrolean is not a walk in the park? its not something we can do alone?

Not saying you'll have to do it by yourself Clinton, just that this time around will be a whole lot harder gear, and seemingly people wise. Hopefully you'll be able to get something squared away;)
