Zane's day changed by the arrival of the DMM Pinto!

Richard Tregoweth - Tuesday, April 12, 2011

Popular Auckland contract climber Zane Wedding recently arrived back from aus and one of the first stops was Treetools.

Zane has been waiting (for what seems like forever) for the arrival of the new Treemagineers designed DMM Pinto pulley. He had plans for the use of the cavers Helical ascending knot as his friction hitch and the Pinto pulley is the perfect candidate with its fully rated bottom becket. Read more about the Helical on TreeBuzz.

Luckily for Zane, our DMM shipment had only just arrived when he visited the store. Within seconds, the Pinto was set up in the demo 'tree' on a length of Yale Blaze 11mm climbing line (see picture below).

This will be one of many applications for the smaller Pinto - we'll get them listed on the website over the next few days.
