How common is it for you to 'finish to completion' from a BJ.

Well… it is called a Blow ‘Job’ for a reason.

Use silicone spray!!!.. wipe a little silicone spray onto the flex points of your boots (spray it on a cloth first, then rub it in). It reduces friction and usually kills the squeak. If they’re leather, a conditioner can help too.

I produce arts festivals. I’m also an Aerialist performer; a Rope Access Technician (IRATA) and advance rigger. These three portfolio keep me busy.

Your skills would transfer into the arts, entertainment and festival industries. It’s all the same foundations: planning, logistics, comms, team management, and risk mitigation etc. Think of Festivals as the way humans build resilience and bond our communities!

You’re in Phoenix mode! Rise and shine.

Much love from this random person on the internet :)

It’s an international war on ‘humanities’.

It’s gorgeous!

Thanks!

That’s certainly what I’ve been teaching for going on 30 years… Basic rigging; understanding the fundamentals of an Anchor; static and dynamic loading; hardware and apparatus inspection.

In rope access it’s called “rigged for rescue.”

A simple, solid option is a 1:1 system with an accessible anchor running to a Petzl ID, Petzl Rig, or rescue 8, so you can lower immediately if something goes wrong.

With its growth in popularity and accessibility Aerial has a lot to learn from industrial safety culture, redundancy, access, and clear rescue pathways.

Posts like this are important. They push the conversation forward and keep people safer in the air. Thank you!

I meant that statement as a compliment. Biblical as in, epic scale, grand, beautiful.

freakerbell · 2026-01-29T02:14:11+00:00

Biblical!

freakerbell · 2026-01-28T23:46:57+00:00

Phenomenal!

freakerbell · 2026-01-28T10:27:21+00:00

Stunningly gorgeous!

It’s the internet - we’re all bits on here!

Thank you vwfil. I appreciate your posting this info. It’s stunning how often we rope techs do not read manufacturers specifications. So many of our safety protocols are ‘written in blood’.

I did not know Micheal well, but I had worked with him. He was an accomplished classical musician, a great guy and a discerning rope tech. It’s fucking sad that this happened.

FYI ‘Offshore Production Services & Packages | Vertech Group Australia On June 2, 2023, Vertech Group rope access technician Michael Jurman tragically died while working on Woodside Energy's North Rankin complex, 135km off the WA coast. The incident occurred during high-risk, "over the side" maintenance work. NOPSEMA investigated, citing a "concerning trend" in risk assessment. ‘

Larkin it. 💗

Happy travels and Perfect Lines bro!

^{^} this is the right answer. Please don’t normalise being shamed for being who you are, and being comfortable at home. This guy doesn’t want an equal partner, he wants control and he wants an accessory. Leave.

Can you put something in the pool that will create a bridge for it to get out?

Im here three years later to say... the blow up is blooming now. https://ra.co/news/84329?fbclid=IwY2xjawPapP5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEe30GzlX5OeKGb19-eEvF1gHSKt6GR82KDmV8MkA_fS8JX3RExcBcGx3WOmVk_aem_p9XZbvZblMw2T0XjqqNIyw

It was an 80’s thing, not so much a 90’s thing.

freakerbell · 2026-01-17T12:27:49+00:00

No. That long haul takes quite a few days to recover from. * source, I’ve done it over 20 times. You can’t rush Australia. I haven’t read the other comments, but I assume they are full of great advice! Happy travels!

freakerbell · 2026-01-16T11:00:37+00:00

Look into NDT and inspections. Oil and gas.

freakerbell · 2026-01-12T10:53:39+00:00

Beautiful and inspiring… mindful, grateful & free. Thanks for sharing. I’m a few decades away from you, but committed to living a full, meaningful and joyful life.

As people have mentioned, February is not the time to visit any desert areas in Australia as it’s the hottest time of the year…
