Why on earth didn't you use the bucket???

The bucket isn't tall enough to set the rigging and it would have take quite a few setups to work the whole tree. The lower boom is slower then Christmas too. Once I got the tree to a point where a the bucket could easil track everything with out having to be moved I came down. It has a 55ft working height and my tie was around 65-70ft.
 
Nice work. I have been using the XRRings for light lowering and remote retrieval/installation. I'll look at carefully uping my weights a little (over time) on them now. Thanks

First mistake would be calling that noise music. Good stuff. No spider leg?

Some men just don't need to spider leg... knowing the balance point on 30' oak wood is sumtin'... could spin those pieces around with one finger.. sweet!
 
That log at 1:08 went perfect with the music. Ha! Love that loader grabbing the log right off the bat.

Wow Moose it's even better full screen in HD 1080.

Nice big rip cuts. Really a perfect place to put those XRR set up. What kind of rope was that?

The ropeman must be a climber right?
 
It's 5/8 polydine and yes the guy on the ropes is a climber! The rip cuts worked perfect in the scenario I was in. I love the XXR's Bix. I positioned them in a triangle up top so I was free to work wherever I wanted and not worry about the rigging line interfering with my climbing line. Thanks for the good feedback everyone!
 
Jay, that was pretty swish my good man, keep those vids coming. Next time do it to some classical music and in black and white.
