This stuff that you show is awesome stuff. And tree stuff Im sure loves it. I have purchased works very well. Keep up the awesome vid they are great and I keep learning new techniques. Merry Christmas to you and your family, from the great state of Tennessee
Awesome video, August. I've always been amazed at the things you put your gopros through and to hear that you've never broken one is a testament to their toughness! Maybe you should post this video to their facebook page!
Another good one August. Loved the perspective/angle at 2:39, had to watch it 2 or 3 times to "get it". Also, the "testimonial" at 8:13, I can very much relate to that..... ;~) Oh yeah, and the closing shot, really good stuff. And yes, I caught all the back and forth on the Sena units. I would love to get a set of those and I don't even have a full time groundy. Thanks August! See ya at the EXPO! :~)
Great video, great tree work.wish i had some coms in my helmet. by the way that cutting technique where you felled the top clean off, we do it in australia its called spear cutting! but yeah they wont teach it to you in climbing class ;)
Versa climber, heavy bag, and rope skipping!! Infrared sauna b4 bed. My biggest problem has always been dehydration. You'd be surprised to learn how much it affects your performance.
Sean Adey: I started in this business in the '80s. When I did spear cuts I was criticised. But then we now do a number of things that were new or odd back then.
Hey realy cool helm stuff :D we need this in Germany too. A lot of good equipment comes from you american only the shipping and the German customs is always so expensive.
Nice job, GoPro is the ticket, there will be no other. On another note working around power poles of any kind gives me the willy's Hey round is a shape hahahaha me too. Just got over back surgery, stay safe.
Finally tried one out today, the ability to speak with the other climber made for a good day, but we couldn't figure out how to cancel the saw noise. Any tips wood be greatly appreciated. I'm not tec oriented.
@@AugustHunicke yeah sena 20 I think. Worked great for tunes and talking but man the sound of another saw in our muffs was just about enough to turn em off. I don't have the deconstructions and youtube at work wasn't helpfully.
that 200t is sounding mean do you dril some holes in the exhaust ? i juse a 201t but i mis my old 020t it was faster and mer chain speed i gues but thats all over now
I do a cut similar to your slice but with a thin notch. It allows the top to tip out a bit before slipping off the spar. I call it a slip cut. Just make sure everything is lined up.
Do you guys show up in your chainsaws and if you do do you guys have a video of that your chainsaws look like take a really really good I know it’s not just the chainsaw it’s the chain is the way you guys Sharpen it
Some really cool camera trickery in that vid, I had to rewind it a couple of times to understand what was going on, very cool. That was fun to watch even without drone footage!!
Loved this video for all of the information and entertainment! We used the Sena system and it was AMAZING! Merle was using the BIG saw and the noise cancelling allowed us to converse without any saw noise. The voice quality was clear, better than our home land line! Great ending . . .
Congrats, your vids just keep getting better...wish I bought gopro stock back in July...they should def compensate you somehow...free gear...break this camera challenge...there are commercials of people shopping with their phones while surfing, catching passes one-handed...I think it's samsung? Anyway I could see you ordering something on your phone while spiking a top...haha. Hey, is there any use for that wood...was it cedar? for milling etc..
kencanoe Thanks Ken. I hope to finally get noticed by GoPro at some point. Yes cedar. The mill not taking cedar at the moment, I don't think. It's rarely taking cedar. Plus I would need a crane to get it out.
I use the blake's hitch as well. what makes you decide when to use the Zig Zag, and when not to? Great vid, I watch these in the morning, tired AF, downing coffee, trying to forget how my help isn't going to show...lol
You're awesome man. Can't believe your working that Blake hitch on this monster. You're a machine bro. Old fat and tired I get it. Love you dude. Sometimes you gotta look back at where you came from. Love it man.
No! Thank you for taking the time to GOPRO , the job that you love , and the weekend warrior that i am, with doing tree work , And yes it is work , but its better then going to a gym. good show!!
i just noticed that on your climbing line after the knot you have nothing on the tag end maybe a figure knot for safety ? I am just concerned for your safety , i lost a good friend that way and now I wont climb no more . be safe and god bless p.s. I would never try to tell you what to do just concerned for ya
Love you videos, great mix of music and saw. How do you get rid of the wood when you are cutting the 16"ers? In nh no one wants pine, never mind small. Just curious. Keep the quality coming!
Thanks for the nice video, i've one question..... When you are runnig the saw or the chipper you must talk laud to be able to be heard from the other component of the team or you talk normal becouse the noise is filtered from the microphone? Thanks
"Spiking" down those pieces of stem is great as long as its on ground that won't fill those butts with dirt/sand that it churns my gut to send through the chipper.....
Just that not ALL the ground guys are 100% disciplined about that type of thing; hate having to pound it into guys. Oh, the not-so-small blessing of having team-minded guys needs to be appreciated more and more as time goes on.....
This stuff that you show is awesome stuff. And tree stuff Im sure loves it. I have purchased works very well. Keep up the awesome vid they are great and I keep learning new techniques. Merry Christmas to you and your family, from the great state of Tennessee
You're one bad dude!! Videos keep getting better and better! Love this stuff! Thanks for the new feeding!
Aaron Tervasi lol
we call yer slice cut ,a fast cut , its a great application
Buckin tested, Buckin' approved!
Awesome video, August. I've always been amazed at the things you put your gopros through and to hear that you've never broken one is a testament to their toughness! Maybe you should post this video to their facebook page!
DigsDirtDigsMusic Thanks, Hows the injury these days?
Slice cut is known as a dart cut here in England. Beautiful job in this video - great one for advertising being roadside.
Another good one August.
Loved the perspective/angle at 2:39, had to watch it 2 or 3 times to "get it".

Once again nice job I must say I my self hate it when traffic slows down but that's for another day but real nice job
Mike Duffy exactly
Love the idea of the helmet mic's
Some real wicked editing there bro!
Gotta love those spear cuts! Awesome vid!

Sean Adey: I started in this business in the '80s. When I did spear cuts I was criticised. But then we now do a number of things that were new or odd back then.
Taking that slice was wild!
what kind of gloves do you wear in the winter
good stuff.
Thanks for sharing.
In these days I also feel fat.
I need that same set up
Hey realy cool helm stuff :D we need this in Germany too. A lot of good equipment comes from you american only the shipping and the German customs is always so expensive.
Gartenwulf Nico!! Yer the man!
Do you still use sena communications in your helmets. Wondering if you have something more updated? Thank you
Still same
Nice job, GoPro is the ticket, there will be no other.
On another note working around power poles of any kind gives me the willy's
Hey round is a shape hahahaha me too. Just got over back surgery, stay safe.
Teri and TL Stanbro Thanks
Teri and TL Stanbro: Take a line clearance class, or even get certified in it. Have you ever heard the old saying, KNOWLEDGE REPLACES FEAR.
Tear it up, brother. I call that last shot a spear chunk...
nice shadow work Aug...
Finally tried one out today, the ability to speak with the other climber made for a good day, but we couldn't figure out how to cancel the saw noise. Any tips wood be greatly appreciated. I'm not tec oriented.
Sena?
@@AugustHunicke yeah sena 20 I think. Worked great for tunes and talking but man the sound of another saw in our muffs was just about enough to turn em off. I don't have the deconstructions and youtube at work wasn't helpfully.
You can’t really chitchat much around anything loud. You can be heard but you can’t really chitchat.
@@AugustHunicke not much of a chatterbox myself, but I was hopeful for a way to noise cancel the others saws.
They do somewhat
Love the system!
Tagged that 500 spot
really good job man
that 200t is sounding mean do you dril some holes in the exhaust ? i juse a 201t but i mis my old 020t it was faster and mer chain speed i gues but thats all over now
Did you get into shape?
Not yet :/
just remember round is a shape...great vid
Moc pěkné
\m/!!!awesome buddy!!!

Ah....call it the Siberian train sliced death cut over here....;-)
No stopper on your blakes
it's called spear chucking, old news, I do it with 30ft tops
Yay, you win a sticker.
Dude you got great skills, all your videos are awesome with a lot of info!! Keep it up and get in shape lol cheers
If its not a TreeStuff box on my front porch I ain't gonna open it.
Do you ever use a clove hitch with double half hitch for rigging? Di you currently use friction savers on any of your lines? Keep the videos coming!
I do a cut similar to your slice but with a thin notch. It allows the top to tip out a bit before slipping off the spar. I call it a slip cut. Just make sure everything is lined up.
run august run

Howdy August
Thank You. I don't think you re out of shape my friend.
Bruce Pender Thanks but I do. ; )
Couldnt agree more, cant imagine doing treework w out them now.
You're awesome man. Can't believe your working that Blake hitch on this monster.
You're a machine bro. Old fat and tired I get it. Love you dude. Sometimes you gotta look back at where you came from. Love it man.
That 200T sounds nice. I may have to do an ebay search to find a hidden gem somewhere. All my 200's are worn out and in pieces.
No! Thank you for taking the time to GOPRO , the job that you love , and the weekend warrior that i am, with doing tree work , And yes it is work , but its better then going to a gym. good show!!
Greg Snider thanks
i just noticed that on your climbing line after the knot you have nothing on the tag end maybe a figure knot for safety ? I am just concerned for your safety , i lost a good friend that way and now I wont climb no more . be safe and god bless p.s. I would never try to tell you what to do just concerned for ya
Nice video! Can you confirm if the growman knows when the machine is on through the sena's? Thanks!
Love you videos, great mix of music and saw. How do you get rid of the wood when you are cutting the 16"ers? In nh no one wants pine, never mind small. Just curious. Keep the quality coming!
Tom Saad People on the other side of the fence were keeping it. Cedar.
Love that you used the telephone line to hold your camera for the last in tree cuts
it's not a competition, it's a adventure
Have you ported you're 200t?
Alex Carson nope.
Yo son your videos are Banging! Peace! :-)
wow 12-25-15 what a AWSOME show August !!
Correction I ain't gonna open it!!
At least your pointing finger is in shape mate! Salami cut here. COOL VID!
Mistah Benn haha, same here on the wording of the cut but not for slicing tops
AwesomE vid once again!
yeah treestuff.com ....
badass climber
Thanks for the nice video, i've one question..... When you are runnig the saw or the chipper you must talk laud to be able to be heard from the other component of the team or you talk normal becouse the noise is filtered from the microphone? Thanks
Franco Bellorti talk normal with Mic close to your mouth
"Spiking" down those pieces of stem is great as long as its on ground that won't fill those butts with dirt/sand that it churns my gut to send through the chipper.....
Ya, I like when they cut dirty ends off.
Just that not ALL the ground guys are 100% disciplined about that type of thing; hate having to pound it into guys. Oh, the not-so-small blessing of having team-minded guys needs to be appreciated more and more as time goes on.....
drop ✂
Yet another good video ; thank you :)
