Great information Bino there are a few changes since I’ve taken my climb test so happy that sharing this information with the new climbers so they can see what they need to understand what the testers are looking for ( all evaluators are different just a heads up new climbers)
Great video! I really appreciate these. At 5:50, do you have to throw to the first tie in point? Or could you just immediately start throwing for the final tie in point?
I am taking intro to arboriculture at my local JC hope to get cert sometime next year. Never did the tree worker cert, I just haven't needed it. 15 years climbing. Gonna have hard time with the science stuff though.
@@BinoH How long did it take you to memorize all the terms in chapter 1 and actually understand them and know what they mean in reference to each other? I have been at it like 6 hours and still only know like half.
@@Treeclimbingexpert I first became an Arborist and was working in the trade many years before I took the climber test. I recognized a lot by the time I took it.
Do you have any videos of anything explaining what could be bad rope angles for Moving rope system while climbing big crown trees if not can you make one?
Also can you make another video of double crouching with a moving rope system with a pulley and prusik maybe explaining like what could be bad rope angles for trying to double crotch with a moving rope system do you get me?
Hi Bino, I fell in love with tree work at an early age , but never officially work for a tree company. My father’s construction company did some tree work, and I tried to start a business in my twenties. Unfortunately that never worked out , but my wife and I just recently started a tree business after working with a contract climber for a while. I was told ISA says no one will be approved to take the certification test, unless they have college and one year of experience working underneath the certified arborist ,or three years of working underneath a certified arborist. Is that true, or are there other ways someone can be approved? Thank you for all the time and effort you have put into your informational videos.

Not sure what you meant about the 30 minute vs 45 minute time limit and point scoring/ deduction. What if you do it in 25 minutes is that too fast? Over 30 deducts points or adds points… I wasn’t sure what you meant. Mahalo In Advance bruddah
No deductions if you complete the test sooner than the 30 minutes only if you pass 30 minutes. There are deductions throughout the test. You should check the test out on the ISA website. You can see the performance test. You're welcome!
Hello sir, big fan of alot of your videos. I'm a BCMA, Utility, Municipal, and TRAQ. I have 14 years of climbing experience using DRT and wish to pursue the Climber specialist, however in 2019 I got injured. I still climb but am picky about the jobs I accept because of my injury. I wanted to ask you as a proctor, could I request the tree I climb to complete the skills portion of the exam or am I at the mercy of the site and the proctor administering the exam?
Sorry you do not have an option on the tree you climb when your name it called you go to the tree you are going to climb. They do their best at making the trees at the same skill level. every tree is not the same and the area plays a part in what is available to climb.

Once you get into the science of tree work, you'll notice things in your work that make sense. Like how trees react to thing we do to them.
