Hey yall, i'm going to climb the tower in a few weeks. Where do you need heads if the old ones are dead? Which heads? |
|
You won't need any. |

There is a blind, reachy and airy hook placement on Pitch 1 where the C2F heads are blown...that hook move is truck. Inverted hook moves do wonders on P5 where the heads used to be... I wouldn't even bring heads... GL |

Awesome. Thanks! |

In fact, you should buy a set of my butter knives and spend a little time cleaning up the route a bit. There are at least a dozen deadheads and heads with broken wires that could be removed. |

Where does one find a set of Hudon butter knives? |

PM me. |
