Bino is a beast come on guys Subscribe to this man he puts a lot of effort into sharing his knowledge to all of us tree surgeons

[@BinoH]

Thank you for that awesome comment. Take care!

@@BinoH just by going thru his videos I've learned a lot. Yes , I subbed this channel also . I also have a lots of respect to him.

[@John-m2s5e]

much respect to those willing to share their knowledge

[@mikesoultanian8050]

Hey Bino, that goove that you're talking about at 2:37 is actually to allow you to remove the slic pin without having to poke your finger inside. If you rotate the pin counter clockwise while it's in that groove it will pull right out which is super handy. Strangely, I only have it on one wall of the bird where it looks like you have it on both?

[@BinoH]

Yes the one I has one on each side.

[@mikesoultanian8050]

@@BinoH grrrrr... and mine is brand new, so it looks like there was a manufacturing error! :( I'm gonna exchange it because I want one that has the channel on both sides!

[@ashleydarby3652]

Awesome piece of kit. I found mine was a bit jerky at first. I reduced the tension ever so slightly and it made it easier to break the initial tension and then it was a whole lot smoother - so much so that I was really smooth one-handed putting Christmas tree lights up in our ash tree

[@BinoH]

Thanks, after I adjusted it was smoother but think I need more time using it. Take care!

[@dalehumphrey4264]

subscribed brother I was one of the 86% I'm in the tree for exercise safe and with confidence love your videos no one is as easy to understand and well explained as you good work

[@BinoH]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@nickknic62]

I like those video father and son . You are a good example for your son , in this days when family dosen't seems to be to much . I give a 10 , for both of you .

[@BinoH]

Thank you!

[@stevebrough304]

I knew that this was your Christmas gift from your wife as soon as I saw the video title. Nice to see you and Noah up in your tree! Interesting and informative video! Like your new bearded climber image. Thanks for the video Bino!

[@BinoH]

Thank you, Steve!

[@johnnyjrgensen8427]

As a beginner i am really getting a lot of good info from your videos. how about safety, with the zigzag you need the chikane. Is the RRP as safe to use alone.

[@BinoH]

Yes the Rope Runner was made to use by it's self. The Zig Zag was for MRS first and then they added the Chicane to use on SRS.

[@caseymyles4048]

i know it's kinda off topic but do anyone know a good place to stream newly released movies online ?

[@paulmorin2582]

Thanks for the excellent content you produce! You guys do a great job.

[@BinoH]

Much appreciated!

[@stevehensley903]

Best video Ive seen for demonstration.

[@BinoH]

Thank you!

[@jdoublev1055]

Bino, with all the content you put out, you should put together a seminar.

[@BinoH]

That would be cool, someday!

[@Raul28153]

nice close ups nice explanation. What I am missing in all the vods I've seen is an in-depth explanation of how it bites or locks onto the rope to keep you from descending. Is it in that middle linkage?

[@zeke1eod]

Awesome job, excellent video. I couldn't agree more, I think to buy a mechanical hitch you should have to demonstrate at least 3 rope hitches before purchase, if nothing else just to show competence in rope work and or safety, but I'm old school. Thanks for all you do, stay safe and God bless.

[@BinoH]

Thanks, will do!

[@mvblitzyo]

way cool both of ya got a try , first thoughts were well put . love the information ..

[@BinoH]

Thank you, Joe

[@iwontbebeat7111]

I'm new in this sports. What I don't understand is why can't use rescue figure 8 for this expensive gadget ?

[@BinoH]

The figure 8 is for descending not for advancing.

[@iwontbebeat7111]

@@BinoH Thank you for your reply. I've just placed an order for Rope runner pro. I just like climbing high trees and somehow get bit by spiders .lol 😂😉 Cheers !

Awesome, thank you!

[@chrislock9283]

And I wanna know what it seems to be working the best? I’m used to climbing on the zigzag!! was thinking about getting this new rope runner Lmk. Tks

[@BinoH]

So far it feels really smooth.

[@shanetuttz1799]

Gracias por la explicación.saludos C, Bino

[@BinoH]

You're welcome and thank you for watching!

[@mattd6086]

Great job, Bino. I have that same saddle and just bought a RRP. I’ve been using a Hitch Climber and have come to love using the ring on the floating bridge. I’m learning SRT but still use MRS. Giving up the Hitch Climber means losing the three holes, so I’m looking into swivels, but the Master 5.0 floating bridge is flat. Is that bridge replaceable or should I consider a different harness?

[@BinoH]

It's not replaceable on the 5.0. Thank you!

[@harrypurdon4137]

Hey mate do you find that your diy self tending chest click can get stuck in the bird of the rope runner and keep it open? Thus being a hazard ?

[@BinoH]

That has not happened to me yet. thanks for sharing!

[@graysquirreltreeservice7299]

Awesome video 👍👍👍👍

[@BinoH]

Thank you!

[@rtk90083]

Yo Bino def want too see you put the rope runner in a MRS system!! Maybe you could touch on that next??

[@jbcardin]

It works great in MRS. I love mine.

[@BinoH]

Good idea I will work on it!

[@jbcardin]

I use a Bat Plate on my bridge to help keep the terminal end of the rope out of the bird.

[@BinoH]

@@jbcardin I get what you mean the rope is very close while using MRS.

[@iwontbebeat7111]

I'm an beginner on this sports. I'm considering Harken Ninja foot ascender with Haas Velox knee ascender together with this Notch rope runner pro . My main intention is to preserve my rope longevity as much as possible. Do you consider that is good combination ?

[@BinoH]

It sounds good make sure your rope is one that you can use with ascenders.

[@iwontbebeat7111]

@@BinoH Thank you for your advice . I'd look into it much deeper !

[@dankotos61]

Yes I subscribed a long time ago I like your review on the rope runner pro been thinking about getting one for myself I seen another review seems like everybody likes it I have a blue moon 11.7 as my main climbing line so yeah I think I'll be on there in one I have a zigzag which I love just is not midline attachable thank you for all the good information you put out there really appreciate it

Great thank you and you're welcome!

[@gregbrown9271]

Very nice peace of equipment 👍

[@BinoH]

True thank you!

[@brerrabbit4265]

Do you know what the slot on the right side of the RRP is? I found no info in the manual on it and I tried to ask Notch but they never answer my Emails, which is why I am done with them forever but I already own the RRP so I would like to know.

[@BinoH]

What slot are you referring to? Is it where the second slick pin is?

[@brerrabbit4265]

@@BinoH It is on the right side, right under the middle swivel pin. it is a longated square protruding out.

[@BinoH]

@@brerrabbit4265 it looks like it's there to be able to change out the bollard if it whears out.

That's the best answer I have gotten thus far.. Thanks.

[@mymobile5014]

How is it any different to a $10 belay ring??

[@BinoH]

The difference is that you are able to ascend and descend and work aloft.

[@1stFlyingeagle]

Bino What rope do you use for climbing and what dia is it?

[@BinoH]

I have a few types. My older ropes Hi v 1/2", Blue Streak 1/2", True Blue 1/2". some of my newer ones Fly 11mm, Sterling HTP 11mm, Xstatic 11.7mm and Drenaline 11.7mm.

[@1stFlyingeagle]

@@BinoH What one is better than the rest and why. You must have one you like best. Or two due to slight differences.

[@1stFlyingeagle]

@@BinoH So you do you like the 11mm lines vs 1/2" Are you getting good wear sliding them in the crotches?

[@colsinclair7793]

Zig or pro ?

[@BinoH]

I've only used the Zig Zag a couple of times and I'm still new on the pro. Right now I'm leaning toward the Pro.

[@Studmuffinmark]

Nothing but problems. I've owned this piece for 2 years. Every time I adjust it it's too tight or too loose. Also it trapped me in a pine tree when a little sap got on the device. Just use conventional hitches. They won't leave you stranded or frustrated. Just my 2 cents.
