I pulled a short clip out of my 'little big oak' time lapse and slowed it down, 40 seconds, to show the advantage of the Wraptor on large pruning jobs.

The first climber with his line already set low in the tree, hip thrusts up the rope to the tie-in-point. He then advances his line and climbs to the final tie-in.
Concurrently a second climber, sets a line higher in the tree while the first climber is hip thrusting up. By the time the first climber makes it to the top and gets started the second climber has Wraptored up and is ready to work.
If you have ever climbed a tree you know which worker was less fatigued by the time they reached 75'
