I also tried to buy one off him but gave up. Bought a strap instead.

Same here, he went out of his way not to make a sale so I also gave up.

You can get from Southern Ropes. Same thing.

I don't do trails - none of them here.

When I do venture into the bush (read Kaokoveld, Opuwo, Ruacana) I take the following:

1) Hi-lift Jack;

2) Box of assorted bolts, nuts, clamps, cable ties, electrical fittings etc.)

3) Tyre repair kit

4) Compressor (160l/min)

5) Tow cable

6) Shovel

7) Tool box

8) Beer.

No gloves. I am not afraid of grease or splitting a nail.
