Oak Climbing over House

[Bixler]

I wanted to take some weight off of this Black Oak over the house. Great tree for SRT, nice application for the XRR, camera died before the good stuff... again. Last clip is a preview of SO-CAL buzzard, Jamoco inspired, dog-leash retrieval reel, worked like a charm.

Long and boring, make sure your buzzing hard. Thanks for watching. Climb Smart.

As a professional arm chair quarterback, back seat driver and tree video critic I gotta say, too much head cam. No matter how good you are with a head cam it's still going to pan around constantly. Kind of makes the viewer dizzy. I don't know the cure except to have more camera set ups and edit back and forth. The head cam is a powerful tool and should be given out like candy. Perhaps more documentary interludes.

The best tree video ever would be a compilation of new climbers with the camera turned on their faces.

Right on Bix, you can keep the conifers but those oaks look like my cup of tea, well done....

Thanks for the comic relief Bixler!

All you needed was a chipper as well on your client's roof!

[Bixler]

Thanks guys. Jomoco, you got me laughing with the chipper on the roof thing, so lets call it even. No, your right, next time I'll fix up a zip line and keep the guys off the roof, no excuses, I know it can be viewed as tacky.

Boreality, good ideas, I'll see what I can do.

Good morning Jesse, it's gonna be a good day

take your time and watch, look what you've created.

Nice stuff Bixler.
From a non-SRT guy it was neat to see how you work a tree on that system. Looks fun.

Nice, Bix. I like the versions with all the set up of getting in the tree, etc, once in a while. There's more than just climbing and cutting, especially when your rigging gets a little complex. I think it's good to get these vids out there so the public understands what goes into some of these jobs.
