Man…that’s a beautiful area you are working in. Looks heavenly. Why were you not a fan? Man I love this thing but I just barely used it for the the first time today and I am not a professional arborist.
@@Cholton222 you obviously don’t understand rope and the differant strands and cores and how they interact together. Better study up before you hurt yourself brother. It’s not a static line, bounce is not good in an ascending situation at those heights.
A line launcher and acceders would make this much easier. I spent years flipping up big trees and works been MUCH easier since I got a line launcher and acceders.
Kind sir. I humbly wonder, would you not agree that climbing is the best way to get over a fear of it? How else can we conquer our fears if we do not expose ourselves to them?
@@thetreeleggedman9444 my fear of heights is EXACTLY the reason why I am taking up recreational tree climbing. I am just learning knots right now, and have purchased nothing more than a throwball and line. When I can tie the hitches without having to think about them, then I will start with short low climbs. Is there a good beginner saddle you would recommend?
@@jasonkloos1498 highly recommend the Weaver Cougar. It's comfortable and requires no upgrades to get going. You can modify it with more versatile rigging as you become more advanced. But for straightforward up down work It's great. Definitely the best value for comfort and versatility on the market. $280. Insane value for sub 300 saddle. Many pros use it and don't bother to go more expensive. Weaver also usually has higher weight rating and more rugged construction compared to the competition. Main belt is a buckle not clips. Your next best harness will be about $450. If you want to see the tops check out Treemotion EVO or Monkey Beaver.

nice job. FYI that 1/2" Samson rope is NOT rated for SRS/SRT I would not use that in that configuration anymore especially at those heights.
I second that. That rope feels like a rubber band compared to a good static. I use my RR Pro with Samson Mercury.
Y? I'd climb srt on that just a lil bouncy. Who cares.

@@Cholton222 👍🏼
@@dr.h9309 Do you mean bounce is not good as it just makes it less efficient to climb or it’s likely to snap the rope

Why was your bar so small that wasn’t even the standard size one it comes with that would of made it so much harder
Can you let us know why you are not a fan of the RRP?
You did good! But you need a bigger saw for that tree. 201t or a small two handle.
I wonder how he got his rope back....
What was the height?
gollie big guy proud of you getting up there and making a few cuts but you need to get over your fear before you start doing big removals.

Saw is dull
Scared Much ?
It's also hot af in Australia... Could be anywhere from 35-49°C where this chap is...most people tend to puff and pant in said conditions...
@@thetreeleggedman9444 It's also a long climb.
@@thetreeleggedman9444 completely agree, Flipping up in the heat will take it out of anyone idc who they might think they are haha
