Appreciate. Jim & Jeff-
I'm gona bring the SIDEWINDER to China with me.This is like a wearing a rifle with my body,that can protect me in the wild,makes me feel safe and happy mentally.
The 3 Oz. fishing wight and my farm line follow with Sidewinder rifle can easily shooting up to 180 ft. high,if there is no enemy on the sky.
Hope things are going well with you my friends.
Jim,by the way,how do you like my farm line.If need,please email me,I'll shipping you a spool. Good luck.

Elliot---I like your farm line, but I am having trouble learning your sidewise throwing method. The line is great and really flies high. I just can't quite get it to go where I want it. This is going to take some practice, my friend!

Elliot,

Your farm line is the best line that I have. I like it!

If other climbers continue to like, we will need a spool here. We will talk about more farm line in the future. For now, we're ok.

At the 7th day training,we climb a 140 ft olive tree as a graduate tree. students need to be throwing up to 92 ft high anchor and do everything by themself. they did.

For Taiwan and China are in the same language, students can understanding every word I say.
This time was a creating journey,If you are interesting in climbing in China,we can make a climbing group to go China in the future.
Thanks for your concern.

Elliot,
That looks like your class was a big sucess, and the pictures were great.
Thanks for including the link.

China looks like a wonderfull place to climb.

Congratulations Elliot, and thank you for opening up mainland China for tree climbing. The photographs your student posted are great. When they set up the olive tree for their graduation, did they actually hand throw to 92 feet? If so, did they use your hurricane throw? A tree climbing trip to mainland China would be great some day...!

Great work Elliot! Your students look very happy with their accomplishments, congratulations.
