I'm not touchin' that one, emr. I've never met Vi, so she has no reason to dislike me. I'm not going to give her a reason!

I get it. Vi = Viola..... duh I'm slow. I hope I didnt just give her a reason to not like me. My next saddle she will forget to stitch something important. If she is reading this, I am sorry the entire thing was just a joke.

Re:A few questions about New Tribe Tengu & Vi 6 Months ago  
Ace, I've been thinking more about using an NT harness with a chest ascender or roller for an SRT Ropewalker system, it doesn't seem practical when there are other harnesses more suited to this type of setup.

Sorry I haven't shot a photo of my Tengu harness SRT setup, need someone else to shoot it while I'm rigged up. It is a variation of a Texas System that has some aspects borrowed from a Frog system. I use one ascender and a self-tending split tail attached to the fabric leg strap D (rated for life support) as a back up to the main ascender. The main ascender is tethered to the my saddle delta (a pear screw_link_). I use a Pantin on my right foot and also footlock the tail with my left foot to provide lift. Theoretically a Croll could be attached to the legstrap D but that is far from being a chest ascender

Thanks Moss, I appreciate your input. I think i woould be better off to have 2 saddles, both designed for their particular climbing _style_. The Tengu will definately be my DRT choice.
