Here because of your work with August. Nice videos, great editing, music and shots. Some pretty great rigging too. Crane work takes a tone of thought and reading weight. Great work.
Actually pretty bummed out the more I think about it. Why would youtube not recommend your videos if I watch August all the time? Where did you find the music and who is it?
I learned how to climb at Tree Climbers International in Atlanta Georgia, shortly after I spent most of my free time watching Monkey Beaver videos. I analyzed tie in/rigging points and hit the pause button a lot. About a month or so ago I came across Reons videos and now the monkey beaver takes a back seat lol. I come home from a day of tree work and always make time to watch your vids, some of which I’ve watched 10x. So cool you guys work together and I’m a huge fan of you guys. I aspire to have your fleets/set up. But, you gotta learn before you earn! God bless!
Good work guys - very pro. Safe removal of threatening trees. Love the drone footage as well - you insist on a top job all the way through to video & publish of what you do. Stay safe guys !
First off sick video.. and I remember when those strap clips first debuted in the Sherrill tree catalog I said I gotta get those.. anyone who Is hesitant on them really needs to try them I'm a firm believer in that after 10 years of screwing and unscrewing shackles will do damage to your elbow after a couple thousand trees from the crane I can tell you not only do they speed the job up but it really saves on repetitive motion.. yes they are a lil more expensive than shackles but so is being laid up after surgery... EXCELLENT work and thanks for sharing
Never personally seen a crane tree work in person. Although I work for a tree service we don’t have a crane, and it’s just 3 of us so we hand pick trees this big and we make the home owners damn proud. I’m not trying to say we’re better than other people but it does take a lot of skill to be a tree cutter especially when taking down big ass trees with and without a crane
Two things caught my attention as unique to this video. The shot of the climber stretching his bicep. People don't think how much time is spent with those muscles holding your position, even when riding the crane. And then at the end when your face cut was so huge you needed a wedge to finish it! Both things make sense when you think about them, but how often do we think about them? Stay safe and thank you for sharing!
Badass work, guys. I'm in the middle of my first wide canopy crane job right now. Tomorrow should be the last of 3 days. I'm dealing with similar situations but without a certified hook to rappel from, so I've been using high anchor points and working out then up these long, curved eucalyptus stalks, taking 4,000+ pound picks. I've been using wire chokers and it's not nearly as graceful and controlled as what I see in your video. Your crew in this video is commendable. Are you hiring?
Excellent work sir!!! Top notch crew. Ever use rope slings for brushing out the tree? We only brake the big red slings out on trunk wood. Either way, excellent work!!!👍👍
what an awesome video. Great scenery.The drone recordings are mind blowing. The work up there was just amazing to watch :) So glad I found your channel
You are fast becoming my favorite channel. You company is not only part of a cool industry that I love, but you are cutting edge and a class act. Thanks for all the great vids. Question on this one: You usually cut deeper v cuts when your picking large limbs, but I noticed that you did not so much here. Maybe a smaller v right on the back I noticed. Shed some light!
Wow very professional job great rigging on the limbs. And coming in with a tilt bed for the trunk is a great idea. Only thing questionable is riding up on the crane... I've been an operator for 15 yes and the only way I've flown guys up is in a basket. The crane service I work for will not do tree service because you never know what something you're cutting will weigh for sure so they won't take the liability.
Love your videos man. Hope you and your family are staying safe an healthy. Where can I score a XL hoodie with your business logo on it. I'm a tree climber too and would love to have one for daily wear.
Reon I have watched this video about 20 times I love the music and precision that was a huge tree and y’all did an awesome job with that big girl good climber work and smooth operator nice work buddy one of my favs
What was the plan for the huge trunk? Milling, or just didn't want to have to clean up the sawdust from cutting it in place? PS. I love the way you edit your videos. You keep it interesting and entertaining throughout!
I want you to know that you and the ethic that you stand behind it has given me so much ambition that I would love and be honored to shake your hand along with a couple of other great guys but please know one thing brother these videos of you showing the lifestyle that you live outside of it being very strenuous to deal with on a day-to-day... There are a few of us that really really understand it✊✊✊💯
Cottonwoods are horrible trees to have in a lawn, especially right next to a house. I've seen one in Colorado completely move a house off its foundation. The house was totally destroyed.
I love my 880 r with 59" bar that thing is a beast to make a wedge cut with. And shit u got prolly 100lb on me haha, we have huge cottonwoods,maples,oaks,elms,willows like that in Michigan. When I bought my 880 the dealer in detroit was like wait what size bar? They don't make this size. Lol when I showed up everyone at the dealer was taking pics with it. I normally just run the 41" bar on it as the slabbing felling saw, but when I gotta cut monsters like that ,that 59" bar is a time saver
Reon Rounds ya I use mine on most removal jobs here in Detroit/suburbs. The cutting speed and power is just amazing. We only have a small 6" chipper and 65' dte bucket truck that has a gin pole winch rated at 1 ton. And it's just a side biz me and my buddy have(fully insured) but we r full time union high steel riggers(12 years, certified rope access techs and rescue techs, plus a bunch of other certs) but I grew up doing some tree work for a few years as a teen.
Reon Rounds I really wanna get more into tree work cause I miss working outside, mostly stuck inside buildings climbing crazy ass steel beams in places ppl never could think u could get to after a building(stadium,arenas,giant warehouses, big 3 manufacturing plants above giant machines that they normally would have to completely remove to get access to)
Decent edit. I'll subscribe cause you are going somewhere I think, if you expand you're knowledge and willingness to learn. I won't critique here in public, plenty I did not like, but plenty of good stuff too.
hi Eastside, glad you commented, even though you usually do not. I subscribed to Reon after this video = positive. Very positive, as I don't subscribe to many. I also said, "plenty of good stuff", another positive. I think Reon is fairly young, if I'm not mistaken, I think I've heard that Reon is in his 20's. IF so, I'll say another positive thing, he's REALLY good for his age and likely more skilled than I was at that age. my little "negative" of "I won't critique you in public", did what it was supposed to do, test Reon's reaction to that and see how he responded. How he responds tells a TON about him to me. He responded in the best way he could IMO. My very best friends in this industry are one's that I've "challenged". Also, my worst enemies are ones that I've challenged as well. My method cuts to the chase, so go F*** yourself.
thexmanjdd X ya know, everyone is different. I personally was raised to be confident, but humble. I guess when I see blatant arrogance, its annoys me. I watch Reons stuff and I cant get enough. Challenging and advice is one thing, cockiness is another. but like I said, everyone is different.....end of the day, guess it's UA-cam and doesnt really matter
I'm glad I saw your response. I meant to respond a few days later after my post when I figured out that I was confusing Reon with another guy that is more arrogant. I'm totally cool with Reon and I made a mistake posting negativity towards him. Reon wrote me personally and he is very respectable. Thanks for speaking up on his behalf Eastside timber & property development. I respect anyone that speaks their mind, whether I agree or don't agree. In this case , I agree and I was wrong, but would not have known it if you and Reon did not speak up. So thank you!
Was super pumped on the video until you dropped the trunk I was like WTF!! WHY 3/4 of a million dollars of large equipment on site and the customers lawn was left looking horrible come on man
Vince Tervort Thanks! The front yard was getting relandscaped.. there is no other faster way to get that trunk down, then in one piece. With the size of that trunk we would’ve had to cut 3 foot pieces in order to lift them with the crane.. which would’ve been a waste of time and money...
It’s just too easy for me to shut my cable bill off between you and August I am completely content brother thank you so very much God bless
Man your rigging is spot on , and your crane operator has the midas touch, on the pre - load. Another slice of pie sweet.
I loved the drone shots, especially the one that captured the docks. What a nice place to live. Thanks.
Sick editing! I wish I looked that cool when climbing cottonwood. You guys are rock stars!
Excellent video ! Reon you need to get back on YT your videos and editing and music is on point ! 👍👍👍
WOW! Pretty impressive stuff. I was especially impressed with the fluidity of your ground operations.
But your picks are so well balanced as always man, this is a great crane video.
Love watching you people work. Love the videos Reon. Damn I miss doing crane jobs. We are watching feller bunchers. Felling trees in hip boots after.
Here because of your work with August. Nice videos, great editing, music and shots. Some pretty great rigging too. Crane work takes a tone of thought and reading weight. Great work.
Actually pretty bummed out the more I think about it. Why would youtube not recommend your videos if I watch August all the time? Where did you find the music and who is it?
Fantastic music choice ! editing skills off the charts too. Favorite video you've put out.
ArborMax Tree Service thanks bud love your videos as well!😁💪💪
Wicked video, and I've gotta echo Lawrence's comment about awesome fleet! What a cool set-up. Glad you're back on YT man.
Nicely done and great edit. Nice team work as well.

Kyle Grayson thank you very much for the encouragement and kind words comments like yours makes me excited to make more videos thanks😁
Nice I did too, I forget the guys name who trained us.
I can watch this video over & over and not get sick of it ..👍🏾
Good work guys - very pro. Safe removal of threatening trees. Love the drone footage as well - you insist on a top job all the way through to video & publish of what you do. Stay safe guys !
Great work Reons Monster tree service, like the choice of music.👍🏻
First off sick video.. and I remember when those strap clips first debuted in the Sherrill tree catalog I said I gotta get those.. anyone who
Is hesitant on them really needs to try them I'm a firm believer in that after 10 years of screwing and unscrewing shackles will do damage to your elbow after a couple thousand trees from the crane I can tell you not only do they speed the job up but it really saves on repetitive motion.. yes they are a lil more expensive than shackles but so is being laid up after surgery... EXCELLENT work and thanks for sharing
What’s sick about it? It’s a good video
You guys changed the game with the flat bed tow truck to pull big pieces on there, genius
Never personally seen a crane tree work in person.

never been involved in crane removals personally . that looked awesome . nice video good music to watch to.
I can smell that dank cottonwood from here.
Very Very nice fellas. Rigging points are on point.
any special use of the main trunk or trash it out
Sorry if you have it stated somewhere else but which crane is that with how much boom? Thanks very much
Hey bud is that GMC with blue dump trailer gas or diesel? I just bought an 86 GMC c7000 chip truck.
Great Video Reon Rounds, I dig the tunes
Man you guys did well there, pleasure to watch start to finish Cheers
What a monster. Excellent work, that was a great video too!
another great video boys, it would take me and my boys a few days to do a tree like that here in the UK.
Really nice video, eddit and tune.
You have a real good team and gear set with you, very impressed 👍
Superb job friend! Wow you guys must have been beat after that day of work. My goes off to you. Well done.
Very nice work! And some great video making👍

With all that overhead how much do you have to charge for a job like this? Ballpark. Thanks, awesome videos!
I would love to know how much an operation like that cost!! All that skill and equipment!!!
Badass work, guys. I'm in the middle of my first wide canopy crane job right now. Tomorrow should be the last of 3 days.

What did that tree cost
Amazing content. Very nice work. Very professional.
what an awesome video. Great scenery.The drone recordings are mind blowing. The work up there was just amazing to watch :) So glad I found your channel
Christof St thanks alot bud!😁
You are fast becoming my favorite channel. You company is not only part of a cool industry that I love, but you are cutting edge and a class act. Thanks for all the great vids. Question on this one: You usually cut deeper v cuts when your picking large limbs, but I noticed that you did not so much here. Maybe a smaller v right on the back I noticed. Shed some light!
I didn't understand the gripe on the grass- the lawn looked the same as when you started. Nice project
Great video! what is the size of crane you are using?
R.K. O'Neil Jr
It looks like National 40 ton
Oh, and great video and editing. Props.
How many ton is that crane
James Treeman 40ton
how much would a removal like this cost where you are? I'm up in northern Vermont
Plz don't stop making videos
Did you let them wear Gopros?
Awesome job, how long did it take and how much did it cost for the homeowner?
Wow... impressive. Love the army of equipment. Again very impressive.
Great Video! you've sure got everything you need, keep up the good work and God Bless
Saubere Arbeit und gutes Zusammenspiel der ganzen Mannschaft.
Wow very professional job great rigging on the limbs. And coming in with a tilt bed for the trunk is a great idea. Only thing questionable is riding up on the crane... I've been an operator for 15 yes and the only way I've flown guys up is in a basket. The crane service I work for will not do tree service because you never know what something you're cutting will weigh for sure so they won't take the liability.
Love your videos man. Hope you and your family are staying safe an healthy. Where can I score a XL hoodie with your business logo on it. I'm a tree climber too and would love to have one for daily wear.
Nice video, nice music, nice job in team, several technique used. Just one question : the crane have a double break system for your safety ?
Is the tilt deck truck that picks up the log your truck also? That was pretty slick making that stem disappear that fast!
Justin Marble I wish! Just a friend of mine...he actually milled that log!😃
Really really enjoyed that mate 👍
Those tops are always heavier than they look. Nice work
Reon I have watched this video about 20 times I love the music and precision that was a huge tree and y’all did an awesome job with that big girl good climber work and smooth operator nice work buddy one of my favs
Stihlarborist86 Thanks Kyle it was a big job but it went very smooth!! A lot of work but also a lot of fun!! Thanks for the positive feedback bud!😁
SICK edit! awesome Job!!!
Awesome video brother
Sick track, awesome iron, great work = perfect video. You like those slings better than a deadeye?
sweeeeet! awesome edit! awesome fleet, straight beast! 💪👹
LawrenceSchultz3000 💯
Nice work and great edit reon
I just want to know what the guy gets paid in the tree
great job on everything
What was the plan for the huge trunk? Milling, or just didn't want to have to clean up the sawdust from cutting it in place?
PS. I love the way you edit your videos. You keep it interesting and entertaining throughout!
yjjeeper90 thanks man!😁 I actually gave the trunk to a friend and he did cut it up into boards..
GREAT VIDEO 💯💯
I want you to know that you and the ethic that you stand behind it has given me so much ambition that I would love and be honored to shake your hand along with a couple of other great guys but please know one thing brother these videos of you showing the lifestyle that you live outside of it being very strenuous to deal with on a day-to-day...
There are a few of us that really really understand it✊✊✊💯
What’s the name of the song ??
Jason Tracz I think this is right Disclosure - Help Me Lose
Nice done 💪💪👍👍👌
That was such a dope video !!!!!!
great vid. great picking. smooth
Verynice old footage.
Nice rigging!
59" on the 880? dang son. ive got one and had to only use it for one felling cut. it had to weigh 55lbs haha. we use it now mostly for milling!
Very good work! Nice channel :)
patkarlsson thanks man!!😁

Buen trabajo
First class all day long keeping it safe
Great work!
Super awesome video
Nice soundtrack
Fucking perfect. I'm inspired by you. I climb and I hang, I want to own my own tree service. You're doing it damn near identically to how I'd want to.
You're also great with balancing your picks. Love it.
Joseph DiDonato Thanks man I appreciate it!!😁
Reon Rounds where are you out of? I'm in Boston MA
Cottonwoods are horrible trees to have in a lawn, especially right next to a house. I've seen one in Colorado completely move a house off its foundation. The house was totally destroyed.
Nice job!......(Didn't need the jack)
Gary Hull It looked cool though 😎😂

David Moore we only use it a few times a year but when we do it sure is handy😁

Insane, love they just hauled the whole trunk off
tight work
That's a big ole tree!
SO. MUCH. EQUIPMENT. haha. making it work for you!
Decent edit. I'll subscribe cause you are going somewhere I think, if you expand you're knowledge and willingness to learn. I won't critique here in public, plenty I did not like, but plenty of good stuff too.
thexmanjdd everywhere I go Xman....same comments from you. It's an annoying pattern. This is coming from someone who NEVER comments....

I would love to do a crane job
Great stuff
Make more videos please I beg you .
Fookin awesome mate!
Precision.
This is the type of company you call in when have a massive tree next to your home not some guy with a chainsaw and few wedges.
Was super pumped on the video until you dropped the trunk I was like WTF!! WHY 3/4 of a million dollars of large equipment on site and the customers lawn was left looking horrible come on man
Vince Tervort Thanks! The front yard was getting relandscaped.. there is no other faster way to get that trunk down, then in one piece. With the size of that trunk we would’ve had to cut 3 foot pieces in order to lift them with the crane.. which would’ve been a waste of time and money...
Damn I bet your crew worked alot of hours to pay for all that equipment
