Subject: Re: Bridle-less spin pole

We thought about boing to a bridle-less system but thought that the loads may cause the pole to snap in half. So we use a spectra short bridle system and don't use a foreguy unless it gets windy. It works great! You just need to move the twings forward to just behind the forward stansion.

>>I'm considering going to a bridle-less spin pole with rings siezed at center for the topping lift and foreguy. The foredeck program is simplified significantly without bridles. Anyone ever us one? Did the pole need to be tapered? Snap like a twig?
