Thank u Daniel for watching and ur comment. I have a diff background than most. I came up free climbing to the work weather steel wood or other material. You are right the odds do go up with every step.
very fast.. yet is the time saved really worth the risk of a spike kicking out while you're not tied in? The longer you are in this biz the more the odds are that it will at some point. the odds may seem small but over time they become larger.. Good luck with everything..
I am assuming you logged with August by the way you humbolt cut the tree and checked the gun during the felling cut? Love the paint job on the bobcat and the red tracks lol that's a riot ... Great video
Nice job ... but .... YOU may never have a problem with free-climbing. But what about the young guys who may watch this and get the idea that they are OK doing it? Sorry, but I have a hard time enjoying your skill, because this is the kind of practice that makes tree-work about the most dangerous job around. And this is why our insurance & workers' comp rates are so high. And then, there is that ONE time your spike hits a soft spot in the bark ....
Yep.... I remember these days. Good days.
LOL! @ Statements @ conclusion!!! Great git-r-dun footage.
I think the title was "Gum Tree Smack Down."
Not, "How a Young Guy Should Smack Down a Gum Tree."
Cat yellow but u knew that. Bobcat turf tracks first run series. The new ones are black but I like red. Thanks for the kind words.
