I hope this works.

Cool vid! To bad the climber is pruning on spurs. Spurs are for removals only.

If they weren't so full of loose, broken and hanging limbs and deadwood I would've done the work without spurs. It was just a little too dangerous of work to do without them.

Now one can enter and work in the trees safely.

Hey safty first I totaly understand. you wouldnt want to tie in on something dead or not attached.

Chevy,

The consideration wasn't the tie in point. It was the suspended hazards in between the TIP and me. For the shear amount of gross defects in the trees a pock mark from a spur point would be analogues to a mosquito bite.

In those trees it was "Safety First"

I understand your point and thank you for bringing it up.
