I dont regret wfp in the least , i only switched cos i went home bladdered one night with my mum dad and new bird , i shinned up the drainpipe and jumped off in spectacular fashion , only to land and tear the cartilage in my knee , docs told me next day that it was gonna be an op with about 5 weeks of down time
Week later was laying on hossie bed , pre medded up to the eyeballs tellin the missus that the plastic chap in my wallet was gonna take a battering when i was mobile .
This i did , and in a way im glad i did the drain pipe jump as i dont think i would have gone wfp otherwise .
Dont get me wrong , i love to trad , its a skill that i love , but wfp turned things around for me no end .
I remember when i got my brother into w/c , he watched in awe at the speed it could be done , not blowing my own trumpet there of course
But , no disrespect to my bro or anybody else for that matter , the guy is effing useless with the hand tools , like a cow handling a musket my old dear said !
WFP has a lot to answer for in the respect that the old skills are dissapearing , almost any monkey can use a pole system , but trad is a real skill , it makes me wonder how many forum members are capable ?
Come on , you know you wanna bite
P.S. what WFP did for me , before and after
