    vertical speedline size/weight limits

    for smoothness and less shockload, slack or no slack on the speedline? should we get it banjo tight or leave loose slack in it?

    vertical speedline size/weight limits

    I appreciate that. sometimes overthinking it wastes so much time and if you'd just got to it, it'd be done by now. that is an option for sure.

    vertical speedline size/weight limits

    we can block the road indefinitely. i need to clear out the understory to get sightline from the road to the top of tree. There is a good conifer to place a redirect so i think the pull at the height will be adequate. I'm going to be using the winch so open line of sight is needed. i could...

    thank you, this is what i came for. I was off for a long 4th w/e and another climber spent the day limbing up to 100' or so. fought it the whole day and went home exhausted. I'm on it tomorrow and get this thing all down on the ground. I appreciate the insight esp the vectors clarification. very...

    the risk of hangers is a primary concern, both the safety factor and not wanting to waste resources fighting them. not looking forward to that

    vertical speedline size/weight limits

    cutting a path up the front side of the fir and clearing out the drop zone is mainly necessary to open up space for visibility and the ropes.

    vertical speedline size/weight limits

    50" at the base, there's a tear out maybe 35' from the top and looks to be about 20" up there.

    vertical speedline size/weight limits

    did a walkthrough today for an upcoming job next week. it's a big fir, shaped like the letter s, pushing 175' maybe 200'. forested rural Woodland, Wa. Owner says it's making noise and scared of it. They want it reduced to a 50' spar. chip and remove all wood. There's nowhere to fell the tree...

    reg coates climbing and rigging is next level

    Does anyone know what this technique is called? It's like a one legged span rig saving that extra 1/3 of rope length. Next chance I get, that's what I'm going to use it for.

    reg coates climbing and rigging is next level

    the nerdy climber stuff starts around 12 and it gets into "rewind, pause, rewind, scratch head, rewind" territory shortly after. I learned so much from this man. Somehow he still comes up with new spins I just don't see in my zip code. Also some peeks at his mulitcender device which seems to...

    Love tree work. Not the tree business.

    you love doing a job that folks come out and wait patiently to record on their iphone, then completely explain how they have shared each one to their coworkers and family, respectable adductor cramps at 3am that are frankly baddass in their own right, then the very next day your coworker texts...

    PDX area here. noone around here has a Reflex or even seen one IRL. none of the local shops carry them. Whenever I check online, they are always out of stock. Is there no market for this product or is the sales/distro side of this company really that inept?

    Go to canopy anchor?

    I highly recommend replacing the alpine butterfly with the span loop as your midline knot. It's got the little bowline handle you just pry up for reliably untying every time. Even use it for rigging. fasg and secure and never fight it to untie.

    Go to canopy anchor?

    I use the pinto 99% of the time esp when set from the ground because it just works reliably and I can move on to the next thing requiring consideration. the soft8 always is always forgotten in the bag, I know it works well but just rarely grab for it.
