As i have gone through life i have always found the best gear is always designed and built buy a serious end user with years of experience in his field , and as long as no one cheapens it or tries to cut corners ( or the accountants do poke there noses in ) that gear is always by far the best , keep up the amazing work in and out of the tree's August
Nice work MB team I will have one soon! I'm a lefty and that's why I have held off my saw is never on the right side. Love the adjustability to make it truly unique to the climber and how they set up!
My wife bought me the new monkey beaver saddle and I must say it is awesome. I do advise getting the pads, they make a difference while in a tree for 8 hours. I did go through the suspenders in less than a month, my wife think my sweat ate the suspenders and they just started fraying apart in the shoulders. The saddle took a few climbs to get tuned into my climbing but once done it’s the most comfortable saddle I’ve had out of the 4 I’ve used over the years. The easy on and off clips at the end of the climb are awesome. Over all good saddle definitely recommend to whoever reads this.
Please call the office for new suspenders. The fabric company gave us a weak batch of fabric for the suspenders and there are a few frazzled like yours and none other than those few in a batch that we’ve been replacing. We have 100 pairs of those that we have to cut up even though they look perfect they’re from that batCh. Please call the office and I’ll replace them with ones that won’t wear out for eons.
Nice video August. John did a great job showing the new features of the 2.0. If I was a tree guy I’d definitely be buying one if I saw this video. Congrats.
Well I know what my next saddle is going to be. Just got my V1 made on 6/22 and wow was it a game changer. Even if there won’t be a trade in/upgrade option I’ll be saving up for the V2….hell might be the V3 by then lol. Love your content and gear August keep it going. Be safe out there
Definitely gonna get one at some point in time. I still run a Buckingham, but it is getting time to replace it. Great to see John is still full of energy.
nice ad, been climbing in New Tribe for a few years, been thinking about the monkey beaver for a min to replace. i am also in the pnw, a little north of you. God bless brother. ahava shalom
Hey August, that orchard ladder really interests me. I would like to make one. Any chance of hooking me up with the owner of it to get some close-up shots of the metal strengtheners and braces? Maybe some measurements if they are willing?
Love the video monkey Beaver cannot believe the rot that was in that tree and it cracking and still hasn't blown down I'm not a professional climber but I need to get me a set of them suspenders and that rope bag thank you so much for the video
I’m still building my climbing gear kit. I’m currently climbing on an Amazon special (save me your concerns, I already know). I’ve been looking on the used market for a deal and have found that nobody wants to get rid of their MB saddle.
You sonavabich! Well, guess I'll buy one in a few years when my current one wears out! The MonkeyBeaver is the only saddle I can wear with my squishy thighs.
Seeing all the Rock Exotica tool carriers on the first harness pictured made my eyes bulge, more money in the tool carrier than anything else there hahaha
Did you see the video? If not, then you should. He shows several versions of the 2.0 and it looks like black, white, green and blue and a "disco" version at least. They were images that either faded in on the left of the screen, or slid or dropped in throughout the segment while John demonstrated the new saddle.
Good Morning August, man, what a shame ..... as I finish my plate of grits and three eggs before heading to the big blowdown oak, I see you spilling all that Redeye gravy out of the tree. Wonder how it got way up there... Smiling, George.
Maybe think about taking trade ins. Don’t know about the liability but betting there is a market for good broken in saddles for the non pro. I’d probably buy a first version just to have for the few times I need to carry more gear than I can with my light Edge with it’s crappy D’s
5 weeks of recovery for me after a surgery last week. When I get back to tree work I'm ordering a saddle. The sooner the better as I know it takes time. I'm a fairly small climber at 5'7" 130 pounds thinking of a maybe a small for me.
@@AugustHunicke I had a pilonidal sinus removed & I guess I have an absess as well. I had 4 colorectal surgeries in 2018 as well. At 28 years old just hoping I'm finally done. The fibrin glue is falling out as I type liquid stitches dissolving quick as well. I had some separation sadly so I'm still on the oxy for another week.
@@AugustHunicke my biggest issue is actually bieng restless. I cant stop moving around and doing stuff when I'm in pain so I assume the pain meds are what helps me relax & rest. Sadly the tearing & separating of the wound is normal I had a flap surgery done. If it re occurs I'll have to have a cleft lift done. Another name for pilonidal disease is Jeep Disease it affected soldiers in world war 2 big time and was coined that.
Seems like the rope bag good idea if a guy had chest harness or use the biner on the suspender s to clip a small purple pulley on the suspender attachment point to feed the rope bag into it .
Man I really need a good bag suggestion for crane jobs ... my rope always just starts flying out of my bag when I untie from the crane to make a cut. Super annoying..
John S gives me hope that a mature individual can be above average at tree work (I am a DIY with a pension toward this type of activity). I am collecting my low end gear, and your group makes me want to do more of this!

100% right sir. Reminds me of that saying “necessity is the mother of all invention”
The 2.0 looks incredible august you got are making waves in this industry you all will be remembered for years to come great job boys
Looks like the Cadillac of climbing saddles August..... 👍
.....and that rope bag is brilliant! MonkeyBeaver crew design geniuses.😃👍❤🌲

Ahhhhh I see what he did there 😏 7 is indeed the number of completion, if you know, you know ☝🏼🤙🏼
Best climbing saddle ever my opinion

Great video August. The new saddle looks great.
Love the MB belt. I have one critique but that's not for everyone to read on TH-cam. Well done August and JOE. THANKS
Love the video monkey Beaver cannot believe the rot that was in that tree and it cracking and still hasn't blown down I'm not a professional climber but I need to get me a set of them suspenders and that rope bag thank you so much for the video

I wish I was a baller, so I could upgrade my totally awesome saddle with a more awesomer one... High five crew and all you other folks.
素晴らしい!

Nice. Congratulations on the Monkey Beaver 2.0. Thanks for the video.
The tag line on the bottom of that sketchy pick was cool
Yes sir Jhon..completion..GOD CREATED ALL THINGS and this world in 7 days .we cannot understand the power and glory .the heavens declare gods glory.
Six days.
Six days.
You sonavabich! Well, guess I'll buy one in a few years when my current one wears out! The MonkeyBeaver is the only saddle I can wear with my squishy thighs.
I rock a buckingham agility and it’s a damn good saddle but my oh my I want a monkey beaver so bad
Looks comfortable can't wait to get some money to by one stay safe and keep up the great work I'm always learning from you guys 🤘🤙
Shout-out to my homie John bucking that oak lead! 👍

Do you have a video out showcasing the different color options for the 2.0?

I guess I must've missed that. I'll watch it again. Thanks.

Saweet... when I get a couple jobs done here I'll be ordering a large 😁
Thanks August !!!!
Cool! ... if I was 5 years younger and still seriously pursuing tree work I would replace my 1.0 with the 2.0!

Been climbing in tree motion light and its just too chinsey and the aluminum d-rings.
Small yes. What was the surgery?

Just went to order the 2.0
No big guy size? Any plans for the xl
Do you give your climbers that work for you a harness or does everyone have to pay?
Yeah Steadman here come Debo!!
Buying it as soon as my current saddle falls apart a tad bit more
Nice having a new old guy to show off your gear. Did you shoot any more footage with him ?
Ya
This might be my next saddle.
Man I really need a good bag suggestion for crane jobs ... my rope always just starts flying out of my bag when I untie from the crane to make a cut. Super annoying..
Nice I like to wear a first aid kit on the back of my saddle the monkey beaver does not have a way to strap a kit on it.
Love the new belt!
I’m a 30” waist also and was torn between the medium and small. Im afraid that I would have the medium sinched down all the way
Small will be the ticket.
John S gives me hope that a mature individual can be above average at tree work (I am a DIY with a pension toward this type of activity). I am collecting my low end gear, and your group makes me want to do more of this!
Did new tribe help or you guys make this one all on your own?
This one’s all ours
Love it! all I need now is a good enough excuse to replace my 1 year old saddle 😂
@3:00..FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN A TREE VOMIT.
Can I trade in my V-1 for the V-2?
Do you have any love for thr og monkey beaver owners
What does this mean?
What’s up August beautiful!!!!! Mate 🤙🤙🤩🪓🌲🪵 Nice 😊
That old orchard ladder could use a coat of two parts boiled linseed oil, one part turpentine. Just sayin.
This was different.
Chainsaws are made to be run left handed
what is your name for this maple?
Big Leaf
You wil be back sooner than later.
I’ve climbed in that saddle before. I wasn’t impressed It’s not a bad saddle. Maybe my expectations were too high. I’ll stick with the Sequoia
I purchased the first "Disco" pattern harness. I love it! I do have to admit though, cutting and climbing in Colder weather is actually nice haha.
Thanks! Ya John is a warm weather guy
You sold me at camo
Impressive
Want one so bad
Oh I need and want one. guess I will be giving you a call and credit card number.
Nice.
#getaugustto200k
Lol I just got my v1 😂😭
1st.
Always improving
