      I am a tree surgeon as well. This is a rare sight, ESPECIALLY with a tree company this size. 9 out of 10 times the bigger the company the more non existent the owners become. At companies not even a quarter of this size I wouldn’t see the owners for 6-9 months at a time. I have tremendous respect for this company after seeing this.

Your prospective on these types of trees will give us east coaster's, a reality check as to how they stack up against the difficulties compared to your soft-wood trees. I agree with the references you've made to your comment section, as I have often said to myself, "I'd like to see 'um do that out here". Only in the 80 to 100' range with sprawling canopy, 1/4" of bark, and very tuff hard wood. I think you'll find yourself using your fill a lot more often or having a couple of extra chains ready to go, which is what I do. Keep up the great work you're doing. We're all hanging in there with you. Chip from Delaware.

In one of the videos (about chains) I heard you say "when I was working on the east side of the tree work". You don't work there anymore? if so, know I'm sorry... These videos made me look at arboristry with different eyes. And it's cool. In any case, this post is about the fact that no matter what, your participation in the east side of the trees will remain forever in my heart, and now I follow this channel as much as possible.

    While watching you video where you were felling a large tree solo. You were using a block and tackle so to speak , to pull the tree in the direction needed.
    Each time it moved you had to retention your ropes.
    If you were to incorporate a section of large bungee cord, say 50’ or so and stretch it between two loops in your main line, it would provide constant tension and pick up what would have been slack. There by eliminating the need to stop cutting to retention the pull line.
    What ever the length of bungee, set the loops double that distance. That would provide a good pull for a good distance.
    Plus it never complains or needs a break. And works cheap. 😎
