Have done a search with no success, so if any else who is more computer experianced than me and can find links for me I would greatly appreciate it.


I need to get an anker for Cliffhanger and want to know a bit more about them from people who have used them. Any help appreciated.

Thanks

smithie you can borrow mine to model off if you wish, let me know or you can borrow it for cliffhanger, if you break it just have to replace it.

Might take you up on that.

I made one some time ago but have not realy tested it. I don't want it to fail up there.

If I could have a look at yours it will give me a chance to compair.

Mate in my humble opinion don't waste your time building one, buy one of Roger Smiths Ground Grabbers, we have used one in a few comps, Cliffhanger and OBC and they set really easily, they're strong and most important of all......they're proven! I personally wouldn't bother trying to build one (and I'm a budget bandit from way back!) because although they look basic there are a few tricks to them in terms of angles and strengths, we've seen lots of them fail or won't set, including those fold up ones.

Good luck with Cliffhanger mate, it's a great event.
