    Hello & Thanks

    Hello and thank all of you for your insightful discussions. I made the decision to leave the ground and found this sight. I am usually the person who dips a toe in and goes cheap, only to spend twice what it would have required to do it right the first time. I believe the post here have saved some serious time and money.

    My set up is as follows:

    Blackbird DL 1.1 with Web Susp.
    WB Superfly
    "Shanes" mini line lok mod
    AHE Jarbridge
    Dutch Stingrz
    Mountain Goat Tarp Skins

    Although everyone here as been extremely helpful on my quest as I have trolled through thread after thread, I must give a BIG SHOUT OUT to SHUG!!!! An accidental video sighting and I have been hooked and entertained ever since.

    Looking to hit Sipsey soon!!

    Thanks Again!

    Welcome from Texas, and yes Shug is the MAN. I think he should either be a Saint or Knighted, not sure which.

    Welcome to the forum from central California.

    Two things about that Shug fella:
    1) The boy ain't right. No one person should have that much talent and entertainment.
    2) The world is a lot better place for having that special fella
    Happy Trails to one and all.
    Enjoy the outdoors wisely and elevate your perspective.

    Good evening, from Michigan!
    I've gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, make sure I stay here.


    When I see lovers' names carved into a tree, I don't think it's cute. I think it's strange how so many people take knives on a date.

    Welcome from Gadsden. I'm from B'ham originally, worked at UAB for a long time. I sure don't miss that traffic!

    You should try to make the Sipsey Hang: April 4,5, and 6
