I am sorry for the loss of your friend nutstory, and condolences to those who knew John Brailsford personally.
Although I didn’t know him I still respect the innovation he showed and perseverance in making into reality his concepts of climbing equipment.
Thank you for bringing his passing to our attention.

Hmm. If your flexibility is like mine, then I don’t imagine we will be giving Olympic Gymnasts any competition any time soon …
Aside from that, the 5mm cable thing rings some memory bells pretty strongly!
I’d have to peruse my defunct gear pile but there could actually be one of the aforementioned moacs in there.
I know for sure that I’ve got aid gear on such cable (alumni-heads), but having gravitated to the ‘thin aid’ end of the spectrum relegated such to the defunct pile, as RP’s replaced them for the most part.
