  • Working as an arborist I often get questions about what gear I have on me, so this me going through the tree climbing gear on my harness..
    This is what I have on me for pruning jobs, section fellings and rec climbing.

    You said safety about 10 times. I applaud your safety approach...to many people lost their lives and seriously injured themselves forgetting about safety! Keep on ! you are doing the right things 👍

      No kidding. I see people mock about being “too safe” or inconvenient of getting work done.
      Getting injured or losing a life is probably a little more inconvenient 😏

    “I kind of want to protect and keep my eyes.” 😁 ya that sounds like the way I’d say it. Love my armor.
    I find the fusible link concept of those micro cut-ready webbing slings a funny idea. A fan sent me some one time, said he was worried about me. Kind of defeats the point of a wire core flip-line. Instead they should just require better tools for the rescue kit.

    Yes, I picked up a silky subat 330 last fall. I couldn’t believe how fast it could cut. It is definitely one of my favourite tools. And as usual I like your ending! 🇨🇦

    Nice channel. You carry a lot of gear on your harness. When I started climbing in NZ we had a harness, 3 strand ropes, 3 strand prusik loops and steel core flip line. Most of the time we carried nothing else but a hand saw and tool strop for the 020 chainsaw. Sometimes all we climbed with was a linesman belt and spikes. That is basically like a thick belt that looks like the top half of a harness with 2 D loops and lanyard made of chain. No main line at all, just climbing spikes lanyard and a bit of bravado.

    Good lord you should see my Treemotion S Light harness lol. I am a GEAR JUNKY!!! I love climbing trees. I’m a serious recreational climber and over the last year spent several thousand and am glad I did. You only live once so I’m going all in!!!

    I proof why you don’t get to comfortable with climbing and don’t forget safety.
    I fell about 50 feet and broke my back. I was paralyzed but I got back where I could walk and eventually back climbing.
    I don’t do much anymore but always will love it but I’m lazy these days.

    @je9881 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I like how you think about risk and how to reduce or even remove it. Such as a saw never crossing the rope and the potentiality of needing to cut your lanyard in the event of a rescue. That is wisdom I can use.

    The irony of course is that the discomfort of thinking about things like needing to be rescued; backups-for-backups, falling etc leaves the mind fixating on negative outcomes. The reality of course is few things you HAVE plans and strategies for occur - so the better prepared you are for mishaps/eventualities the less likely you are to need and rely on these precautions.

      Absolutely! I am specifically searching up harness setups people have: to find ways to make my work easier and safer.
      •I found the Petzl Zillon would be great; but I’ll wait a bit more due to expense; and sufficed with a DMM nexus swivel to help tending my lanyard slack easier: since it’ll only tend when I pull in perfect direction of the pulley’s location.
      •Teufelberger Keeper will help me immensely with my ~20’ lanyard always getting stuck on limbs around/below me. 👌🏼
      •I finally decided to get Pfanner Protos after one year of annoyance dealing with rope & branches getting stuck on my earmuffs going through thick entangled tree branches. Trying my coworker’s helmet: I found it fits more securely and more comfortably than my Kask Super Plasma (super annoying with upper part always “floating” loosely on my hair due to headband adjustment design.”)

    I hope this doesn’t offend, but I was happily surprised to see a beautiful, articulate, female lumberjack who clearly knows her trade! Some people talk about the old days, but this is better.

    @jasonmcmanus6169 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You can emergency descend by tying a Italian hitch on your carabiner if you main descender fails. And add a French prussik down on your leg loop on a carabiner for extra safety if you know what I mean.
