Rigging Maple Limbs above a House

[ChrisOTS]

Hey guys, first off I am new to these forums. Glad to have a North American network, been on the UK ones for a bit. Being from Ontario, didn't make a lot of sense. lol

Sharing a vid from a couple weeks back, first job of the year back together with the regular crew, me climbing back outa school, usual groundman and the bossman.

Rigging Maple Limbs Above House

Little slower than the note we ended on last year, but still some very cool riggs in the video.

Interesting. Did the rest of the tree get bombed or was it all rigged? How long did it take? Welcome to the Buzz

Nah, it was just a limb with a cavity, the rest of the tree is still standing, took a couple hours more than it should have. 6 or so, then a couple more once the deadwooding/shaping was done.

Looks like a great tree to set up a zipline, of course I can't see the surrounding area.

Is that song everlast?

 

[ChrisOTS]

It would have been a good zip line setup, if it wasn't on an intersection in town, didn't have much room past the drip line of the tree.

And yup, that's Everlast, right outa' the 90s.
