August, the hyperview is much better because it gives a broader perspective that includes more of your procedures. You have years of experience and know how to set the cameras that help us understand what you are doing and why you do procedures. I worked for Mountain Timber Cutting Company, cutting trees up the Clackamas River drainage. I never did any climbing so appreciate what you and your crew do to take trees down. Blessings to you.
August, this is one of your best videos. You prove that it is content and character that makes a great video. Television is saturated with garbage content and they utilized huge funding, huge staff, huge advertising. You, alone, out videoed, out classed, out produced with this informative, educational and enjoyable video. The super view is best because the hyper is too wide and dizzying to watch.
Once again you read my mind and this speed lining setup is awesome! Another Great video and right on point for an upcoming job where I will be working alone! I feel like if I was taking the "August" school of climbing and cutting trees I just passed my sophomore year final. I not only understood all the rigging you setup for this video, but I 100% understood and appreciate why you did certain things because I've gained enough actual experience now to safely put it into practice. You are making a difference to a lot of hard working potential tree workers! I have a lot to learn, but your help and practical explanations and examples make it possible to work and learn. I am ready to buy a Monkey Beaver version 2 harness and pass my Petzl Sequia down to my worker so he can use it to start learning to climb. Thanks August! Thanks A Lot!
August, another great and informative video. Your camera angles are spot on. We have been enjoying all your projects… Do be safe and take care my friend…
Enjoyed the video. Excellent camera work. Thorough explanation of your process. A fun video for viewers......and I'm sure you enjoyed yourself working it out. Thanks for taking us along.
August, I had to chuckle a bit when you started explaining about making sure you don't cut the last sling so the rope doesn't get away from you..... I instantly understood what you were saying and you gave a long explanation of the why and how..... and then you went and did what you said not to do. 🤷🏻♂😆 You almost want to giggle when the limbs "magically" float away and stack themselves in a neat pile. Working solo that is a huge time/effort saver. Thanks for sharing and keep yourself safe! 😃👍❤🏍 Randy
You rock! Thanks for all the great content and wisdom shared. I have learned a ton from you. I recently bought your speed line kit. Used them a couple of times with my friend doing the ground tensioning. I recently thought of doing just this solo with another tree I'm taking down for a neighbor. And low and behold you just made a video pointing out some really good tips for me to use.
Would like to thank you August on your posts, you have helped me so much on how to tackle trees on my property, if you only see good practice, you only carry out good practice and don't pick up bad habits.
I find these videos relaxing, and despite having learned nothing naturally of Arborist work (except what I've seen in these videos) I can still spot the skill and practiced movements that come with years of work.
That was *OUTSTANDING* - I mean talk about *CONTENT w DETAILS* ! Everyone notice how his "skill" with the CAMERA & Editing & Playing was SO dedicated to the CONTENT of this video (I speak mainly when he used the blue pad) plus the remainder of the EXPLANATION(S) - *HOW NICE* Thanks *AUGUST* !!!
As Mr Rogers would say, "It's a neighborly day in this beauty wood, A neighborly day for a beauty. Would you be mine? I've always wanted to have a neighbor just like you." You have a beautiful family, home, and neighborhood August. Thanks for sharing everything with us...
thanks for the solo speed line, I most of the time works alone, not a good idea but it is was it is. I have all ways been thinking about how the best way could be to do speed line alone.
It might be better to keep the tensioning method with you attaching and reattaching as you advance so as to maintain the ability to slacken the line as well.
You truly enjoy what you are doing. The tree work, the camera placement, and your video editing are all contribute to the enjoyment I get from watching your videos. Hyper tends to create more distraction from the subject in the shot for me,
Thanks August. I ordered one of those Ropeman2 devices to help keep tension on my Speedline. I've been utilizing the Speedline on several jobs this year. Take care of your body so you can keep climbing when you're my age, 68. Whether I'm spurring up a tree or cleaning up a tree job site I've been keeping the work day to about 3 hours of hard work. That way I'm not too sore to fall asleep or to work the next day. We have to be kind to ourselves.
That was awesome!!!! Loved it!! Love all your vids, but this one struck me,..Don't always need a crew! 🤯. Sometimes I forget, the more experience you have, the more I think the brain gets bored and looks for "different ways" of doing things just to self challenge or to solve a problem,... which is a fundamental skill to survival in this day. And this was so simple. This was very enlightening. Thanks for sharing August!
18:00 Thank you got this video. I enjoy working alone and have never understood how to safety speedline solo. I've constantly ran into the problem of my line being to far away to grab to stretch another limb to. Thank you again it was a great video.
Solo speed-lining...I've certainly pondered that a lot for when I take down a pecan tree next to my house. I'll need to tension and detention my line as I go but you gave me a new idea or two.
Great to see, man. When I've attempted a solo speed line setup I've had two problems: keeping the line tensioned and the problem of limbs clogging up the line down below. You make me want to try it again! thanks man
That was *extremely* useful and well-timed: I have a similar solo job coming up. We'll see if I remember: "Leave the last sling" I cannot believe the camerawork quality -- and all single-handed. UA-cam approves!!!
A new series! August Goes Solo. There's a ton of solo tree guys out there! This is great. (When I typed, August Goes Solo, I was actually thinking, August Goes Turbo) from the Wreck it Ralph movie. 😂 People with younger kids will get it. August! Are you going turbo!!??
I get something out of every video you create and share with us. Your just such a good dude, thats what keeps me coming back....i just enjoy what you ssy, how you say it and truly appreciate all you offer. Your so damn good at being " A Monkey Beaver!😊 P
I don’t know. Probably the most effort went into the A-Team videos and the Bad Trees series. A Team three and bad trees seven are probably the best videos. Many people have like bad trees three
Less is better when you have enough to work with.Improvisation takes practice especially when you’re working with cameras in different locations.Nice job.
"I'll show you solo speed lining. It's not that complicated, it is?" Well, no. But there's a number of little gotchas that us rookie climbers wouldn't think about until we're 35 feet up. So thanks for saving me a little time if I ever find myself having to do this. 🙂 Edit: Hyperview is worse than superview.
Do you or Have you ever limbed/stripped down a tree with much bigger limbs ? Longer, maybe 12 or 15 feet long about 10 or 12 inch circumfrence on deciduous trees, limbs coming out all directions over hanging a house or something? Could you do it on your own? I would be interested to see that August. Great video by the way August Hunickle. Ross. 👍🏻
Really an awesome video! The solo speedline/ problem solving is fantastic content and so valuable, we are all so greatful. I am an East coast guy that knows why you are climbing instead of felling it lol! Is it a big tangle to get all your slings out of the pile of brush at the bottom? You make it look easy!
The old go it solo and get it done stud August in action. Love it man, only thing missing is the one of a kind green ford shining in the background ready to set a winch line to save the day. Can’t wait to see her back in action or “he”?? Don’t remember. Usually they get a girl name. Mine is ol blue 90 ford custom order lariat F250 460 4X4 haven’t seen another like ol blue not ever. Running a Duramax but miss the old days when you just knew she’d get ya back home and shine when it mattered
August you know better than climbing and dropping a tree alone... What if you (god forbid )cut your leg, had a stroke there is no one to rescue you up there in the clouds. I say clouds because your trees are towers over ours in the Northeast. And still using the monkey beaver belt, held up awesome, and my son used it doing line work inspection cross arms up north for a season... He climbed about 4500 power lines. Love it he said.. as well as I do too. Worth the money Be safe climb smart have a great day God bless Shane A. Maine
I think this video is in my top 10 of yours. hyperview is nauseating at first, the lense setting you've been using is great just wide enough, the hyper is too much imo
Thanks for the tips. Think one could speed line 3 & 4 ft diameter cottonwoods, big limbs ...Been wondering about giving it a go on some I need down. Then I'd have to get a bunch of slings too. How much a sling ?🙂
For 3 years I've been climbing and today was the first time I had a bad gaff out I was climbing to set a line in an ash (ik your not supposed to but we couldn't throw a ball that high) and I haven't sharpened my spikes in a WHILE and the tree was so hard gaffed out and slid 10' down before the flip line caught me got road rash on my arms and chest and a little broken brach cut the crap out of my hand.
Beautiful woods, interesting how similar in spite of some different species it looks to our patch of land in North Louisiana. We lack the fir and sugar pine, we do have loblolly pine, varieties of red and white oak, sweet gum, and bald cypress on the water front. I'm sure I'm leaving a bunch out. The back end of our tract drops into a sandy heavily wooded creek bottom. My Wife calls it my happy place, she's right. I can sit down there all day taking in God's creation. I hope you enjoy working your property as much. BTW what do you think got the Fir. Southern pine beetles and Ipps hit us up once in while. Keep the great videos coming. Blessings Sir.
Yeah, drought hit Texas and Louisiana real hard this year, brown canopies sticking up everywhere you look. Tree guys have very secure employment for a while around here.@@AugustHunicke
Hey August, that was Awesome! Improvising/problem solving etc are key when working alone. How long did that take doing all the camera work and tree work by yourself? ... + the video editing time. Your the man!
@@AugustHunicke crazy to me that it was only a couple hours for the tree work! I'm so slow😅. But I definitely get it with the editing taking significantly longer. Thanks 👍
I do miss the 87 3/4 ton power ram 440 4X4 four barrel. Ya couldn’t bog it down. You’d break something before she’d give. Couldn’t ever seem to find anything it wouldn’t pull out of. 72 Chevy, not really brand loyal just liked the hard to find’s nothing but work in mind. Have to admit the 6.7 super duty and the 6.6 Duramax nowadays is pretty sweet rigged out right. Just a sucker for what always got it done way back when
You prefer electric top hand to the gas? Or just if your by yourself making a lot of cuts? I’m n the market for a top hand and need some guidance. I don’t need the best per day I just want the one that small engine guys or pros have had the LEAST ISSUES with. Asking what’s the best is a lot of opinion but asking which one gave you the least trouble or issues is what I wanna know
August....looking back at your catalog of videos here on YT....IS there a timeframe or year or just a slice of time that stands out for you? Ive back tracked several times and watched your videos and its interesting to see you & the crew evolve over time....id love to know what videos or timeframe i could go back and watch knowing you recommend and just recall.foe some reason ...
All good ideas in this video but it’s also important to mention a couple safety tips for when working alone. Always have your phone on you (in your Monkey Beaver phone case) And I think it’s a good idea to let someone know that you’re working alone. Tell a friend and maybe have that friend check in by giving you a call or text. I’m here telling you this cause the most capable arborist I’ve ever known died working alone. He was also in a remote area with bad reception and at least 20mins from any emergency response. Again, I’m not pointing the finger or shaking my finger at anyone, I’m just saying, something to think about. Climb high & stay safe 🫡🌲
Like a boss ✊👏, if you run into this again, maybe you could have attached the rope, with the slings to your belt while at the top and slung that rope around when you descended your body weight would have pulled the slings rope up simultaneously.
What if you had the progress capture down lower with you so you can losen and tighten as needed? I guess it would take more time with moving it and setting it up as you move up the tree. But one positive thing is that you dont risk over tightening it and not being able to reach the speed line and having to climb up to the top to losen. Ive been wanting to try this!
Hi August is there a way to make speed line sling with old rope and double lock carabiner. I'd love to purchase your kit just money is tight and I don't use them alot. Really enjoy your videos.
Just buy some webbing slings or use old rope 3/8 or a size or 2 smaller, some carabiners, I don't use locking ones, it's branches sliding down a rope. Done, save a ton of money.
Adapt and overcome, that which separates us from the animals, and those who don't take the initiative to make things happen instead of walking away. It's called thinking on your feet, formulating a plan, and following through till completion. Y'all stay safe, and be well.
Its a toss on hyper view and wide view, i think up close and personal def8ntrly has advantages though. That some good precision keep up the great work 🤟

The best kind of inspirational video!
One man show, Legendary
Excellent video! The point you made at ~13:53 was right pure experience talking.

Great video thank you
Like a boss ✊👏, if you run into this again, maybe you could have attached the rope, with the slings to your belt while at the top and slung that rope around when you descended your body weight would have pulled the slings rope up simultaneously.
Another good thing about speed lining like that is thatt all your limbs are in a nice pile.
Hi August, what bar /chain combination is that on the battery saw please?
Nice video - good energy 🙂
What if you had the progress capture down lower with you so you can losen and tighten as needed? I guess it would take more time with moving it and setting it up as you move up the tree. But one positive thing is that you dont risk over tightening it and not being able to reach the speed line and having to climb up to the top to losen. Ive been wanting to try this!
Good video and like the hyperveiw
If I could ever climb with August I’d be blessed

ส่วนตัวฉันไม่ใช่นักปีนต้นไม้มืออาชีพ และ ส่วนใหญ่ในไร่ของฉัน ก็มักพบเจอต้นไม้ตายใกล้สิ่งปลูกสร้าง และฉันก็ต้องขึ้นไปจัดการมัน และฉันก็ต้องทำงานคนเดียว ข้อดีคือ เราสามารถ ทำงานได้เรื่อยๆไม่ต้องแข่งกับเวลา ข้อเสีย คืออาจจะหงุดหงิดที่ไม่มีคนภาคพื้นดิน คอยปดกิ่งไม้ที่ทับถม แต่นี้เป็นวิดีโอที่ยอดเยี่ยม ในการทำงานคนเดียว ในการเคลียร์ไม้ตายใกล้สิ่งปลูกสร้าง
Its a toss on hyper view and wide view, i think up close and personal def8ntrly has advantages though. That some good precision keep up the great work 🤟
Negative on the Hypermode.
