You're a leader in the industry for the fact you do everything on camera there's no hiding anything with you everything is the truth and nothing but the truth that is why I follow you that is why I respect you
Appreciate that bro, if I didn't do things correctly and safely I'd be a hypocrite , and I want to promote safe work practices and show that you can be efficient while being safe, showing unsafe work practices on a platform like UA-cam is irresponsible as it may encourage others to copy and potentially injure themselves because of it.
@@ClimbingArborist 👊✊👊✊👊✊ thank God because if everybody was speaking like you I wouldn't have so much drama going on but then again it's okay I'm on my 7th configuration SRT device I can tell you one thing I'm having the time of my life right now and I owe a lot of that the people like you that believed in this industry for new guys like me three years ago
@@ClimbingArborist I look forward to running a team that I can implement this kind of attitude into the workplace instead of letting the egos drive the workplace
WOW! You had cameras on a UAV, some in the same tree above you, at your level, and on the ground, and you took time to explain it all. Nice professional production!
Good perspective from the Ground Guy yes wet stuff dropping on you all the time is a bit demoralizing but getting him involved in the technical parts is a great way to run a crew. Morale is big!!
Climbing Arborist, I totally agree. The problem solving involved with speed lining becomes a shared experience between climber and grounds person, and it’s good for strengthening the team related aspects of the crew.
Yup, your a good guy. Actually took the time to talk to your groundsman and made his life a little easier. My boss has been "speed bombing" in a bucket for 2 years and I'm about burned out. It's definitely demoralizing to me as a groundsman for someone make that big pile of brush and then drop the big logs on that. Fishing through all that, than drag it makes life hellish at work. I think the worst part is I'm standing there waiting for branches to grab, but I can't safely get a branch before another falls. Thanks for showing me there are people in the world who still care!
Having someone in the tree that considers your safety is key, a boss that won’t listen to his line men will have a lot of turnover. I’m not about to risk injury for someone’s impatience.
I know im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a way to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my login password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.
@Keaton Hezekiah i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Thanks for one more great video ! They say a good climber is a good groundsman first and your approach on this job should be seen by more arb companies. As you say technicity not only saves everybody energy and spirits, but its also what we can sell best : good ideas, the skills to apply them, its valuable. As a rookie in the job (and from France, where sometimes innovating takes time) your videos are awesome to pick new ideas and new approaches ! Thanks to you for taking the time and thanks to your colleague for flying the drone on top of handling on the ground !
Thanks for your comments, we really try to explain our process and explain the techniques used in this video. I’m glad you find this video useful. Cheers
So glad to actually hear a climber think about his grounds man very nice to hear that you cared a out his energy and that you both were on the same plan. Good job keep up the good work
Hey, thanks for posting this. Your videos were the first I came across when getting into tree work and added great supplementary info and things to think about when on the job site. Really enjoy the calm vibe, clear demonstrations/explanations, and safe work practices.
Dan, Excellent workmanship, and so nice to see your concern for the groundsman's morale and energy levels. Scary stuff from my perspective. I got an adrenaline shot a couple of times while you were up there towards the top. Just overall very professional, and I love the lack of braggadociousness.
When you are satisfied of what you have done, you can find a lot of energy in yourself afterwards. While watching you working, I admired your professional way! Well done, Dan! Greetings from mount Olympous, Greece.
Don't forget speed lining is also safer than letting branches free fall. This approach removes the risk of hitting your ground guy or other targets with free falling or springing limbs. Great video.
@@ClimbingArborist I agree, all factors must be considered. Thanks for doing such great work! You are an incredibly insightful, balanced, and intelligent voice for this industry.
Truly magnificent. Been watching your videos ever since I started climbing trees and your professional advice and tips have certainly made an impact in my career. Thank you so much. Be safe always and keep doing what you love!
Those camera shots were awesome...and great tree work too. Though I did see a few branches hit that wooden fence. I'm taken my first arborist class in 2 weeks. I already trim trees but what to learn from some professionals. Thanks for the video!
Jacob Hull thanks dude, glad you enjoyed the video. A couple of the lower branches did hit the fence with the tips. This was never going to be an issue due to a combination of factors, some of the branch weight being supported by the rope, only the tips hitting the fence from a sideways direction and with not much momentum behind it, as well as the branch being able to move once the fence is touched. I hope this makes sense. If the fence had been old and rotten it may be a different story
Great video! At the end I see you're wearing a wrist guard. I dont know if youre dealing with wrist issues that i did but i had wirst pain so bad 5 yrs ago that i worried if i could still work. A friend recommended a very knowledgable RMT massage therapist and changed my life. now still climbing strong with no issues due to my therapist's help
This is a great video man! I've been watching your vids for a few years now, since I got into this trade, I really appreciate the effort you put into it and explaining your thought process. Please keep them coming! Like the use of the battery saw as well, I had a friend in Europe send me the stihl version, probably use it twice as much as my gas saw these days.
Cheers bro, glad you enjoyed the video. I'm trying to explain more and more about the process to cover all the bases and keep things interesting. The battery saw is amazing!! I pretty much use it on every tree job now
Things have come a long ways since I was dodging widow-makers in the 80’s. (Too old & fat to go up a tree with gaffs any more.) Great to see a pro at work!
I really enjoy looking the whole video from start till the end! beautiful work guys, cant wait to go back on work and start to innovate speed lines combos that are spinning right now in my head! thanks, cant wait to see some more of your work!
Thanks Dan for a great tutorial! I like how you walk us through your decision making process. Nice to see what that husqy can do. I also enjoyed how you set the zipline so you could begin directly from the bottom, that is a big time saver given the tree can handle the load. Be Well
I learned something new I have never seen anybody take there strap under the spur of there hooks before. It looks like a good way to keep the hooks up in the arch of your boots. with all the lineman I have climbed with and schools I have been to over 42 years of climbing none of the men I climbed with ever thought of this great idea. The base tie on your speed line also a great move. Dan are you in British Columbia? Great videos keep up the good work.
Firstly, thanks for taking the time to put together another interesting, informative and well put together video. Really interesting stuff, I’ve gained so much useful info from your vids/website, it’s much appreciated. Looking forward to the next one. All the best👍🏼
My colleague and I make the rope to the back of are car and then drive a bit forward. So the speedline is straight and then zip it all down. Fun to do and when it reaches the ground easy to do the next step. Nice video still enjoy it every time.
That was good to watch, watching how others work always opens the door to new possibilities. If you have the opportunity can you make a video on pruning conifers such as this.
@@ClimbingArborist ....3 years since you replied, sorry. Since I've watched many if not all your videos and still enjoy your method of work. To answer your question... I have 8 Japanese Sugi and Hinoki trees around the house. My question would pertain to how much to prune, can you top off conifers if they're getting too tall without causing too much stress to the tree? Actually anything about caring for conifers would be helpful. ....these are tall, like rope access tall. I had to chunk one down as two of three spars games down in the wind. The third was leaning over the neighbors house. Good thing I did as it had a good bit of rot mid way up and coming down on the neighbors house would have been a nightmare. Thanks for the content, I've learned a lot.
Really good video ! Well explained , it's just the little details like how you sling the branches , catapult tips and cutting techniques , all pretty obvious but I recon a lot of people would benefit 😊 like I say otherwise ,, Brilliant vid 👍 👍👍
I can see the effort put into the camera work. Been watching for a couple of years or more and things are looking better than ever. Extra angles and cameras are nice. Does it slow you down a lot to get the drone out and set up the top camera? How much longer does it take to edit that much more footage together? I like that there is continuity between the jump cuts and it's all in sequence. That electric saw is a treat as well. Nice and quiet. Probably nice to work with out all the noise and exhaust.
If you have ever done any kind of filming you know it takes some time and setup, the more cameras the longer it takes. Luckily the GoPro footage doesn't really slow things up. It's just when you want to get certain shots you have to think ahead to get the ones you want. It's great working with Joel from InTree media also, his shots from the ground are awesome and adds a whole extra level to the viewing. The battery saw is amazing, I love everything about it.
Great vid! I always enjoy your vids! Had a great climb myself today spikless Prune on a big red oak! Treemotion and SRT with a rope runner doesn’t get much better, although I’m curious about the Akimbo would definitely like to climb on one.
Very nice, thanks for sharing. I appreciate the demonstration of your speed line. I agree, it would make the grounds mans job a lot better. Having the brush delivered to the chipper is a no brainer. I have never seen such a good demo of this technique. Very nice job of making it clear and valuable. Did I see you cutting with one point of attachment? That is not in line with our safety protocol here. I do comply with this one. Others, sometimes not so critical and I do have some very bad habits. Over looking this one, is not one of them. Take care an be safe.
Its hard to tell exactly, but I think he is moving the climbing anchor rope down with him as he goes (as well as using his lanyard). Look closely and please correct me if I'm wrong? - the climbing line is still there halfway down at least...
Thanks Dan. I still love watching your video's to this day. I have been following your channel since 2013. You taking your time, to share the experience by way of video is so much appreciated by so many of us who follow you.Be safe out there!PSI was wondering if you are still planning on finishing your SRT series? I believe you started them before your battled the Lyme D. and the Silky blade. Hey also wanted to tell ya that I am enjoying the Pod Cast Series also.
Thanks for your kind comments dude, I really appreciate hearing from you guys who enjoy the videos. I will get around to finishing the SRT series. Glad you enjoy the podcast, its another form of media that provides a different form of information and way to get it.
@@ClimbingArborist so many tree workers are basically assholes to each other. They feel they are better than the other guy. They can be brutal on the comments. Like you said...100 ways to skin a cat... My background is 29 years of removing and pruning. I've removed thousands of trees but always enjoy watching others. Great job. Well executed. Organized and professional. I loved it all and again thanks for sharing. Peace to you and your family
Well done Dan. I really enjoyed all the different cameras you used during this video. Helmet cam, tree cam, ground cam and the footage of you explaining things to the camera was totally pro. I hope you continue with this type of format for a while. One question how many batteries did you go through before changing out to the bigger husky? Thanks Dan 🇨🇦👍🏼
Cheers buddy! Yeah I have more of these videos in the works, I love getting different shots to make the video more enjoyable, its just finding the right jobs, the timing and setup all have to gel. But for sure there will be more
Great job. Loved the drone perspective. I was curious about the "sling-shot" arrangement you used to get the first high-line in. Would have enjoyed seeing more on that; equipment used, etc.
Quicker? Maybe/probably. Smarter? YES! My old boss is A GREAT arborist but a total old school knuckle head when it comes to this. We'd be swimming in brush if he were up there. AND scratching the fence up with limbs. I'd much rather put a little work in to a speed line, than crack the whip and bury my ground man.
i have the same saw at work and i love it. the 9 amp hour battery will last almost a full day on a removal and easily a full day of heavy pruning. i only have two gripes about it and those are the weight and that the teeth on the narrow kerf chain have a habit of getting bent easily. im guessing youve got quite a lot of conifers up there. if you get into a situation where sap becomes a problem for the akimbo i find that switching it to ddrt/mrs helps to give back more control. cheers
You guys are the only ones I see using battery op saw.......it looks like it"s working really well. Makes for much better environment for workers and viewers of channel.
It's amazing, we pretty much us it on every job we do, the benefits are so great, ones that you wouldn't even think of like pull starting, or having the saw idling, no 2-stroke fumes and so on....
Nice job and great informative video Dan .. keep them coming .. we learn a lot from people like you .. like the saying goes we never stop learning .. Your lookin better these days you must be dealing with the limes problem now .. you look on top of it .. Cheers

Like you said...100 ways to skin a cat... My background is 29 years of removing and pruning. I've removed thousands of trees but always enjoy watching others. Great job. Well executed. Organized and professional. I loved it all and again thanks for sharing. Peace to you and your family
Great work
Thanks buddy

You are very kind, Thanks bro
Great video Dan 👍
Cheers bud
Great video, keep up the good work and most of all be safe...
Aloha......
Cheers bro
Well done Dan. I really enjoyed all the different cameras you used during this video. Helmet cam, tree cam, ground cam and the footage of you explaining things to the camera was totally pro. I hope you continue with this type of format for a while.
One question how many batteries did you go through before changing out to the bigger husky?
Thanks Dan 🇨🇦👍🏼
Cheers buddy! Yeah I have more of these videos in the works, I love getting different shots to make the video more enjoyable, its just finding the right jobs, the timing and setup all have to gel. But for sure there will be more
Enjoyed your video. Good job
Very cool..love your videos..thx
Thanks bro

Dirk Krueger cheers, glad you enjoyed the video 👍
Great job. Loved the drone perspective. I was curious about the "sling-shot" arrangement you used to get the first high-line in. Would have enjoyed seeing more on that; equipment used, etc.
Well explained, very well done, thank you!
Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Krystian Kruczyński thanks buddy
Quicker? Maybe/probably. Smarter? YES! My old boss is A GREAT arborist but a total old school knuckle head when it comes to this. We'd be swimming in brush if he were up there. AND scratching the fence up with limbs. I'd much rather put a little work in to a speed line, than crack the whip and bury my ground man.
I 100% agree dude. It makes the job better in so many different ways
Nice vid, That yellow protoss is gorgeous, lossk like a giant wasp doing tree work.
I love the Protos, and its colour combo
Good job buddy 👍
Thanks 👍
Nice job Great video👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Cheers dude, thanks for watching
i have the same saw at work and i love it. the 9 amp hour battery will last almost a full day on a removal and easily a full day of heavy pruning. i only have two gripes about it and those are the weight and that the teeth on the narrow kerf chain have a habit of getting bent easily. im guessing youve got quite a lot of conifers up there. if you get into a situation where sap becomes a problem for the akimbo i find that switching it to ddrt/mrs helps to give back more control. cheers
I prefer the smaller, lighter battery. Not really a fan of the 9amp even though it does last longer.
I should try the smaller battery. The 9 amp is all we have.
You guys are the only ones I see using battery op saw.......it looks like it"s working really well.
Makes for much better environment for workers and viewers of channel.
It's amazing, we pretty much us it on every job we do, the benefits are so great, ones that you wouldn't even think of like pull starting, or having the saw idling, no 2-stroke fumes and so on....
Отличное видео, хорошая работа.
Love the content bro. Makes me wanna move to Canada. Cheers for a merriest wood lad
Canada is Awesome. Merrist wood is a great college. If you get the opportunity, get yourself a work visa for canada before its too late
What a fun tree to climb

Nice job! What do You use to prevent safety glasses from fogging up?
Well you didn't ask me but I will tell ya. Any type of soap bar that has glycerine in it, always used Nutregena myself. Just rub some on inside of len's an rub off with a soft cloth.
