So - pretty new here - love the whole saddle concept - way cool!!
Brand new Klein spikes - (tree spikes - not pole spikes) I've climbed a couple times in them so far and notice that I really have to "grunt" to pull my spike out to take my next step - I'm about 240lbs and these guys are rated up to 300 - so I know I'm not overloading them - is it that they are too sharp?? Is it that I'm climbing some older ash trees and the bark layer is pretty thick - enough to kind of grab my spike and lock it in??
I've watched a few videos on here about climbing - really helpful!!
Any thoughts guys??
