    Spider Legs

    once you start using them you will prob find that you want longer spider legs. That way you can use a combination of nylon straps and spider legs. They are great to have when you need them. Plus the crane operators will give you mad props for having perfectly balanced picks.:D I also like 20'...

    Spurs

    Geckos work the best for me. They are the only thing that fit my chicken legs. I'd say which ever fits u the best. Except, don't use pole gaffs:vomito:

    AR Question

    Climbing the tail presents a few problems. The main one being what Tom mentioned. Also if they r out at the tip of a branch bucked in the extra weight may cause the branch they are bucked into to break, depending on the size and angle. Also it may be very difficult to get your self above them or...

    Which cut to rig down a spar?

    Notch or snap cut. I don't think u need a notch every time, but why not make a close snap cut. Say 10% on the lower cut( direction of fall) and 90% on the back cut. If the piece is small enough it will still give u the ability to direct the fall by hand. It is the same amount of cutting but it...

    Scoring the Masters: Big Shot

    Each judge has their own opinion of what deserves extra points. I get that it is harder to throwball into a 100 ft tree, but my preference is to award extra points for hitting the first shot or not having to manipulate the line as much. I doubt judges would award extra points for hip thrusting...

    warm preformance clothing?

    Patagonia long underwear is the best. I have a couple different thicknesses depending on the day. Both tops and bottoms. I also like something windstoper with a full zip for my outer layer. It keeps u really warm without the extra bulk. Also it is easy to unzip and throw out of the tree as u...

    Lost a large removal job to a landscaper... Decided to say something.

    Interesting thread. I believe it has accomplished what Tom wanted. An evaluation of the situation and opinions from many different view points. As for the removal of the trees, everyone should know how hard it is to make a call on something they haven't seen with their own eyes. My personal view...

    Day in the life. Madrone - Crane - Removal

    Iv used the porty a bunch of times. Usually for the last picks near a house or whatever. Maybe not always necessary, but would hate to bust something up at the end of the day. I remember the last pick out of an elm at the governors mansion here in Denver. It was a couple feet away from a huge...
