Yeah, I've seen those. Wasn't there some reg that went in fairly recently (OSHA / Lineman) that said they couldn't fall more than 3 feet without arrest now? My memory is a little foggy, and I'm not climbing towers anymore. On Fri, Jun 3, 2016 at 11:16 AM, Justin Wilson wrote: >

I like DBI-Sala. I became a Miller fan after awhile though. That aircore harness and their retractable lanyards are very nice. On Fri, Jun 3, 2016 at 11:05 AM, Justin Wilson wrote: > Then new designs in “pole technology” is they are actually putting a long > threaded rod through

Then new designs in “pole technology” is they are actually putting a long threaded rod through the pole. The spikes actually screw into them to brace them. The guy who just went through his apprenticeship for line work on utility poles got cynch-lok stuff from DBI-SALA. Justin Wilson
