    Tail tricks

    This is something I’ve always been curious about and wanted to try.. I’ve just also been told not to so I have enough rope in the tree to bail out in case of emergency. But I could if I’m doing a 20-30ft climb/Trimb I guess I could try to them as long as I’m using at least 150ft rope. Sounds...

    Sticht Hitch

    Has anyone made a video showing how to tie this.. like a training video tie it once regularly. Then tie it slowly so we all can follow? I’ve been wanting to try this knot out but I’m more of a visual learner. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Which rope for zigzag?

    I still need to try a zillion.. love my zigzag I just found a a.r.t non swivel. So I put the petzl swivel on it and I’ve love it size day 1. I also want to try on of the 1s from Thompsons tree tools that looks like the uni. I’d want the 1 that could be connected back to its self though...

    Working on Spurs Compendium

    I will find myself more likely to gaff out on a thin bark tree. So also usually have a 360 degree wrap. Plus I like to tie in asap just for more comfort. I’ve been climbing for about 5 years or so still have alot to learn and that why I love this site . Learn something new everyday. Sent...

    Twisting ropes

    Nifty lift sd50 vs tm64

    Can it.. ? I wish I had known that day. It was just a pain for me to get used too. We had rented it for 2 days to do some trimming on the whole golf course. It was fun to run other than that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Things that likely frustrate every climber at least once in their career

    Yeah I’m used to working with small crew my first job was 13 years and we had 4 people max. I’ve had 3 jobs.. all tree work. My new job has 12 people on the pay roll. We’re from northern ny and work all year round. Not always trees. It’s just so weird and hard having to like all these new...

    Nifty lift sd50 vs tm64

    I’d like the monuverability over the extra 14’ but that’s me. I used something similar recently and it was awesome not having to fold all the way up or fold up at all to move around. I’d make up the extra 14’ with a pole saw. But that’s my opinion I don’t remember the exact model I used but it...
