I watch this video several times a week... for a long time now...very short & to the point but a ton of knowledge packed into this video. Great content!
Those tips on bracing while you take off the tops, and that tip on the size of the notch cut was some of the best inside tips I've heard on the tube. Thanks for your input sir.
I'm in the same situation (53yrs old) with starting tree climbing for my own personal properties. I've been wielding a chainsaw since seriously, 10yrs old, from the ground, lifts, and everything in between. But lately I've been boxed in and have a few trees to cut where I can't get on a lift to cut the tops so its time to break out the gear and "learn the ropes, literally. Lot of knowledge learned over the years being filmed on UA-cam and there's also a lot of new and improved equipment on the market. For us, the hardest part is getting the body back into shape as we were in our 20's and 30's. One exercise I found helpful obviously is pull ups. But I magnified it by doing it on the backside of a secure ladder. Try climbing up and don a few rungs on the ladder a few times a day without the help of your feet and legs. And the biggest thing with all of this tree climbing information is to try to always have 2 tie in points as much as you can. Being tied to one rope is great, but 2 is much more better. Good luck !!!
Just watched your video on the importance of staying tied in twice while making cuts in the tree. This safety measure is crucial for arborists to prevent accidents and ensure a secure working environment. Thanks for sharing this valuable information! 🌳🔗 Keep climbing, keep growing, and keep shining bright, my friends! 🌟🌱✨
These are the types of small tips that are so important to know and learn when you're up in the tree that you dont think of at first and nobody else on youtube talks about. When i first started climbing it would get exhausted quick struggling with gravity lol. Having good tie in points and points of contact is the most important thing as he was saying. Great video, and great content overall. I've learned a lot from your channel.
Hey I’m looking to start an apprenticeship as an arborist this September and just wanted to say this was both super cool and informative, consider me subscribed
@@Kewlneasy look for a tree company hiring for a groundsman position and work your way up. School is great and all but they won’t teach you the valuable lessons and skills that you would learn from a well seasoned arborist in a hands on apprenticeship position.
@@jonnyhaha7392 right I get that but I mean more specifics of how to get into it,, how much value is placed in the actual isa arborist certification? What licensure do I need to legally climb and remove large trees?
Hey Joe, great stuff. You can never overstate the basics. So many people have a basic understanding of the deep skills, but everyone needs a deep understanding of the basic skills. Thanks brother!
I’ve watched tons of videos on you tube on climbing tips and none of it is of any use in the everyday arborist game but this man really does know what he’s talking about 5⭐️ arborist and seems like a humble man I like that well done my arborist brother from the uk 🇬🇧 with love
Great video Joe. I know you were making a point on passing limbs. One thing for young and old climbers like me to remember is, make every move count. Don't climb the tree twice if you don't have to. Set your climbing line from the ground first when you can and your body will thank you later in life.
I've been watching a lot of these tips and tricks videos for climbing and these are some of the most practical tips I've ever heard in a video great job at explaining all the basics little things like your climbing rope outside of your Flipline great job keep up the videos
Subscribed. Great video very educational. Im 32 and I decided I wanted to get into tree work but I don't know anybody that does it so these videos are very helpful.
Great video. Only been climbing a couple years (utility arb) after nearly 20 years as a production cutter so videos like this really help so thanks mate.
It's good to have a harness with front extra D rings by your bridge so you can use your climbing line like an extra lanyard. I would weight my climbing system before taking my flip line off. I run a CE style lanyard and then use the climbing line on the front lower D as a second lanyard or I choke the climbing line off on the stem.
Great video Joe! I like how you’re always informative and promote safety first but have tips of the trade too. Stage safe out there and have a happy thanksgiving.
Not crazy to double check your flip line. I was 35 feet up in a sweet gum with bunches of stems and laterals. I was planning my next cut, getting ready to pull start my saw, did a final scan of everything and my blood ran cold...I still had my lanyard tied in to the 50 pound branch I was getting ready to cut. I was tied in with my climbing line also, but it could have been a mess. Great video. Thanks.I have
I came close to that whilst taking a big top, on my final check I realised my climbing line was still tied into the top twenty feet above me! Sounds like amateur hour but some experienced climbers have been killed by switching off and not doing a final check. Rushing a job or fatigue are usually to blame.
Last spring I was climbing a massive dying ash tree. I was just about to drop a very large branch when I realized that the last time I unclipped my flipline to bypass a branch I clipped it back into my caritool. That could have made for a very bad day 😬
Nicely done man, I've been doin trees and climbin for 10 years on and off myself in the Chicago suburbs. Use a lot of the same techniques and gear as you too. Keep up the hard work, be safe out there.
I plant my knee and run my climb line tail outside my flipline as well. Ive tied off in three different spots for positioning. Work positioning will deffinently save your body out. 👍 keep bombin em stay safe
Yup I use a steel core on the work side and a rope lanyard for positioning. We have a lot of distressed trees here, often out on stems your not tied into so having the three points reduces a lot of fatigue
Good stuff Joe, nice instructional video. One thing I would say is to always load your system on change overs. Just because your clipped in doesn't mean your lanyard or climbing line will hold your weight.
@@joebisping6799 You did Joe, but on the climb it looked like you didn't lean into your climb line on your first change over. I know you are a seasoned pro but any newbies looking on might just assume that once clipped in your good to go.
TheToolnut debating it. Don’t want to come across as a know it all. Also I don’t want people using my videos in place of actual training from a mentor you know.
Thanks for the Tipps, this tree coud have been felled simply from the bottom, am I correct? Or what is the reason for all that extra work, climbing up there?
Ropeguide + zigzag is literally the best investment I ever made. I was wondering though, why dont you remove the branches you can on the way up? I always do that so that I dont have to go by them, lower down, cut them off and go back up again, saves a lot of time for me too.
Ropeguide and zigzag are amazing! I do it because I like to have better work positioning when cutting. Also I try to reduce the amount of time that I have my full weight on my spurs. Its nice to use the high set to relieve some pressure from my feet. Thats just how I do it though!
I’m an absolute n00b with hooks. I fell aways in an aspen recently and I about pissed myself when he stood up straight at 4:30. Why didn’t his spiked kick out?
How do I climb a tree that curves over to parallel. Is the a safe way for me to ether haing upside down and/or straddle on top of it ? I need to cut the end of it.
Great vid man, I usually put my climbing line through my tool carabiner to keep it away from the spikes and I find it very useful. What cambium saver do you use here aswell? it looks pretty good
PJP P you get a mechanical advantage for pulling yourself back when limb walking. I just find it’s easier on the arms. Also I don’t like worrying about cutting the srt line on the other side of the tree when you anchor it to the base of the tree.
Somehow I ended up with the habit of always keeping my climb line running down inside the lanyard even though I have gaffed rope a few times, not sure if i was trained or it just seemed to work better & stuck with it.
@@benjaminchen1964 I remember my crew lead who taught me to climb telling me specifically to keep it inside my flip line. He said that i need to have awareness of where i'm spurring. I know there are pros and cons of each, honestly cant think of any pros of our way right now though. LOL
I learned to climb with ropes first & was saving money to by my first pair of spikes. I remember thinking it would be easier to climb with spikes but I felt I was so wrong. Especially when climbing a tree with an extreme lean where you can't tie into another tree, it's just slow going, at least for me that seems to be the case.
@@brandonkarhu5599 there isn't any pros of doing it that way. Makes zero sense whatsoever to keep the climb line inside the lanyard in your way. Put it outside the lanyard so it's outta the way.
Hi Joe, Can you explain, how i get my rope like yours in minute 1:48? ..or send me a Link or something, please? Sorry for my bad english. Thank you very much Greetings from germany :) Tom
OK! We get it!!!!!! Tie in twice or even up to 3 times! Reminds me of the skit with the comedian talking about watching Schindler's List, saying it goes on and on (I guess about the atrocities committed) & she goes "We get it!!!". So I had to say that. Otherwise great video, but wasn't around when I learned to climb or would have been more helpful.
For example buckingham tree sqeeze new versions is like 380.00 bucks ..useing your srs climb line choked and twisted behind the spar sideways wouldnt that be better .say with akimbo or shorty rope 🛠?😮😢
One thing I’ve allways wanted to know ,let’s say you’re in the tree and u got nothing to worry about on the ground ,is it safe to drop massive limbs in one cut ,or is there such thing as like a shock to the tree from weight transfer ,people top trees so I’m thinking it’s ok if u use you’re judgement but was wondering what u think
I like two have my flip line and another lynard with a micro pulley an prusick I run statick 30 foot lynards and I also have my climb line .I have a 24 strand lynard and a 48 strand lynard to choose from
Is there any way to climb a limbless tree without spikes, using rope ? Say you want to get 35 feet up but there are no limbs and can not use spikes.TIA
It’s always a good idea esp for those just starting out in tree work to install your friction saver with a back up when possible, as most times it is, in case your tie in point breaks if your not lanyard in.

Like the tip on the shallower notch,thanks
Tac no problem
Nice tips joe. Liked the knee against the stem tricks. Be keen to hear some more tips for getting confident on spurs if you have any
Always spur in knees to elbow. Don't spur straight down. Keep them sharp per manufacturer instructions.
Thanks Will! Ill try to do a video on climbing with spikes in the near future!
Start out on spurs with a highline set... also check Buckingham squeeze/or similar
Good and Important Video Joe.

Thank you. The rope grab is cool.
Heres the big question??? Is it safer to use srs choked around the spar,,,or mrs with 4 inch gap ..drt on spars ???
What type of sling and rope guide are you using for your lifeline?
It’s called the ART rope guide
Ropeguide + zigzag is literally the best investment I ever made. I was wondering though, why dont you remove the branches you can on the way up? I always do that so that I dont have to go by them, lower down, cut them off and go back up again, saves a lot of time for me too.

Hey Joe. Love your videos. What are some reasons you prefer DRT over SRT? I notice you climb DRT a lot and am curious. Thanks!
PJP P you get a mechanical advantage for pulling yourself back when limb walking. I just find it’s easier on the arms. Also I don’t like worrying about cutting the srt line on the other side of the tree when you anchor it to the base of the tree.

@@elliotpan90 exactly. Thank you.

This is some good content.
We use a tautline or Blake's to repel down. What are you using on your climb line to repel down? Looks like some sort of akimbo type device.

ZigZag
OK! We get it!!!!!! Tie in twice or even up to 3 times!

Do u ever cross ur layand like a 8 for more stability like in the case of being on the back side of a leaner

Is there any way to climb a limbless tree without spikes, using rope ? Say you want to get 35 feet up but there are no limbs and can not use spikes.TIA
Use a throw bag. Throw the bag over the 35 limb. Take the throw bag off attach your rope pulling it over the limb and anchor it.
From where I can buy the tools / stuff ????
It’s always a good idea esp for those just starting out in tree work to install your friction saver with a back up when possible, as most times it is, in case your tie in point breaks if your not lanyard in.
