    Climbing with chainsaw protective pants/chaps

    I just need someone to come out with some assless saw pants so I could keep cool and well ventilated in the heat.

    Climbing with chainsaw protective pants/chaps

    Thanks. I’ve honestly never been concerned about job site “image” because the quality of work speaks for itself especially in a small community. I mean it’s nice to have nice things however I’ve seen so many companies with the flashiest new stuff doing bad work and damaging people’s properties...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    The amazing thing is, when you look deep enough all these "separate" "news" outlets spreading different misinformation that creates an illusion of separation and sows seeds of confusion and division among people are all controlled by the same people at the top. Blackrock comes to mind.

    if a US drone strike kills an innocent brown child in a third world country does it still make a sound?

    Climbing with chainsaw protective pants/chaps

    Thanks for all the responses, I personally have never worn chainsaw pants while climbing. Also thanks for sharing the brands. My main concern has always been that it is always so hot and humid where I'm from in Hawai'i that I'm usually always drenched in sweat by 8am lol I would wear them if I...

    The place that you live has laws about climbers wearing chainsaw protective pants while aloft?

    Climbing with chainsaw protective pants/chaps

    Main thing is you look stylish, what brand do you like? Not to bite your style or anything.

    Climbing Ensemble Cost

    At on time I was curious and looked back at all my old receipts of the exact amounts I paid for everything and added it all up, now if I could only find that note, I do remember it was right around $2500

    Do you climb with chainsaw protective pants/chaps? Why or why not? And if so which ones do you use?

    Has any one had a trusted worker, operate the lift from the base, inbetween the arborist making cuts?

    The first guy I ever worked for would make his groundies move the bucket for him I thought it was ridiculous not to mention no one wants to be responsible for causing injury to someone else especially when they could’ve easily repositioned the bucket themselves. Even though nothing ever went...

    Is it just me, or is SRT strenuous compared to DRT?

    Hip trusting all day keeps you limber for the ladies.

    pants for climbing with spikes

    That’s one issue I’ve never had with spikes. I’ve never liked the shape of the geckos though at least for my body type. People always say they’re heavy but I’ve never found the weight an issue I still just love my steel wrap buckinghams.

    Experienced Contract Climber

    So interesting how so many hands off positions are paid so much better as far as hourly wages go, even in comparison to entry level wages. I’ve been finding it harder and harder to justify climbing, loosing my girlish figure is also my biggest concern! Lol I could never motivate myself to go...

    Drayer tango tree boots

    I was actually about to put mine up for sale. For me personally I really didn’t like them I found them to be more slippery than anything I’d worn before, even shoes not meant for arborists and the same problem I’ve had with the ecos is the toes are too narrow for me.

    Experienced Climbers Needed Washington state

    But how are you supposed to climb the tree without spikes on? Lol ;)

    Seeing the foliage shake high up as I climb makes me nervous.

    Always trust your gut, if it doesn’t feel right to you don’t do it. A lot of this just comes with many years of experience climbing specific species, etc and feeling how they react. You could read anyone calculated guesswork as to what should hold but truth be told none of that really holds much...

    Crane accident 8/31/21 Washington State

    Your last point is the point I thought we where already getting to, like you said none of the other stuff actually matters and should be so heavily critiqued by someone for no reason it was only to point to his own high horse actions and I pretty sure he gets it even if he doesn’t want to admit...
