that was rad!! my brother was grounding for me earlier this summer and we did a big pondo removal, dragging everything up a big ravine, pretty tough... I let him drop a good size stem, maybe 32" and 30ft. he was stoked! At the end he jumped into the ravine that ran behind the house, full gear, chaps, hardhat, gloves, shoes, it was classic!!
definitely all about being safe and busting a$$, but being able to laugh during the day...
