DQ the cheats

New rule? The RO will indicate on a board at registration what kit you are required to carry. It therefore makes sense to bring all of the following with you:

Hat/gloves/windproof top and leggings/waterproof top and leggings - with a hood and taped seams/map/compass/whistle/food.

replace Minimum

Agree, Very simple

[Rob Furness]

Does sound like a good idea, but it is already stated in the rules and safety requirements anyway if you check the wording. Unfortunately it's usually displayed with some vague wording so it isn't exactly clear.

I can't really be bothered debating it anymore as it always comes to exactly the same conclusion

So why keep posting to help this thread approach a new high in length and a new low in inanity?

[Rob Furness]

Im not debating it anymore, I was just agreeing with a comment that sounded sensible. I keep forgetting that the forum isn't for discussing things. Sorry about that

[Sara]

That's not what it's about at all, it was about people not being sure what the kit requirement actually means. I think most of us involved in this sport would prefer the kit requirement to be a bit clearer (and nobody mentioned suggesting certain brands and models which are suitable, that is ridiculous) and tightening up the kit checks so that nobody is able to be foolish and put people at risk by either not carrying kit or carrying unsuitable or inappropriate kit.

If nobody at the FRA wants that sort of thing to happen then that's fine, it was only a discussion anyway.

So post 327 which came after 289 was just "agreement"?

I don't really care. Well done you've caught me out

[Rob Furness]

You know I really shouldn't go on the forum (or in any way communicate with people) when I'm in a narky mood. Fair point, I did say I wasn't getting involved anymore, and then continued getting involved. I'll try and butt out now

[Henry Porter]

What is the least you can get away with? Is it OK to carry tiny kids waterproofs that don't fit? We must be told.

Rob indeed you should keep posting
This is a place for debate. Keep it up. Dont worry I get posts dragged up from the first forum.
