Post by: Kev R on March 29, 2008, 03:32:32 pm: I bought some too. I used them today to get the microbore past a car tyre. Excellent.

They are big, but to carry them just slide one end into your back pocket!!! ;)

Andy and Amanda were great, down to earth and fun too ;D

NHW do you have some slipnslide's ?

they do the job they are meant for, sometimes the easiest things are the best and I would recommend these to any one who uses wfp and at £15 you can go wrong.

Anyone will have had a hose stick under a car tyre that costs time.

Post by: NWH on March 30, 2008, 04:18:30 pm: They have a thing similar to a tent pegg for helping it stay in position in the grass so it`s the same idea,so when you look at it there only use is for going round car tyres.

Post by: Captain Scarlet on March 31, 2008, 01:19:21 pm: I bought some too at Windex, will be tryinf them out and maybe posting some pictures. Nice man Andy too. I think they will be worth it as recently Ivehad some bad cuts in my microbore. I also bought a WCWarehouse backpack to suppliment my van mount so I will do a review of that later....and hopefully soon the new Gardiner brush and possibly he sl-x, Luke

i found they are great for car tyres and brick corners, but if grass/ground really wet the tent pegs too wimpish and pulls out so using a stronger metal tent peg. The other problem i get is i keep forgetting ive used them when packed up and leave them behind (muppet!!). first class buy only let down by the user. ;D Syd 8)

Post by: Nathanael Jones on March 31, 2008, 05:08:58 pm: Am I the only one who doesn't have trouble with hoses snagging????

Looks handy for some situations,... but to me it just looks like another bit of gear to drag around, and that will get forgotten and left at a custies house?!

I'll prob get an awkward job come in and be eating my words in a few weeks,... ;D ;D ;D
