Another clinic in practical safety and experienced execution. There is so much nuance to what you and Damien do in this video that most people are oblivious to. Limb walks, tension and compression, lean and lay, rigging, stop vs. let it run, and so much more. Felling at the end with the hinge fiber sounds is like ASMR for me. Thanks for the great videos!
"We make it a point to leave something at every job sight". 😂😂😂 I can relate, even if it only happens a couple of times, the morning you show up at the next sight, and realize you left something, can really ruin the day.
Oaks in the rain, good times. Thanks for taking the time to explain the bottom, side, side, top cut on that slobber knocker. That 150 sure does eat for it's size.
I've been looking forward to a new August video !!! The only downside is that 33.11 video seemed like 10 minutes 😂 Kinda like when you run into an old friend and you don't get to stay and visit long enough !!! Wish we could've seen more of that tree and looking forward to second part of the job !!! Another Great video August... Thank you so much for all the extra work an time you invest to take us along and teach us !!!!!
I did line clearance for a bit and I never knew anything but gaffing up a tree with (or without) your lanyard until you get to your tie in spot. I tried a set of geckos that has pole gaffs on them and I never got used to them. I always liked the Klein or Buckingham tree gaffs myself. I tell you what though....a good climber is a thing of beauty.... I just got the job done.
The best part of all this, it never seems to get old. On that big leaning branch, the possible split and that huge "pop" and jolt. Huge smiles and laughs after. This is an amazing trade. Good work guys! 🐒🦫
Hey TH-cam!” I love your greeting. Three things: 1.) I felt that one in Connecticut 2.) I feel like I am watching greatness! All of you guys. 3.) does Damien sound like Fozzie Bear?? Love your channel!!
You and Your Team always Grand. All see to light out, but is it heavy Athletics. Near a Video make all to prove. This only possibie how all is Perfect Planing and the Execution is 100 %. Congratulation Your living this Claim! Greeting from Austria 🇦🇹
The translation is wonderfully bizarre. It's awesome to see August's international popularity. I always love his content. This video is right up there at the top of the list.
Monkey Beaver folks! Is there a saddle available for a 10yr old boy? Something that works with a lanyard and such? Is the New Tribe Twist all there is for kids?
@@AugustHunicke How about if I spend the bucks on a Monkey Beaver 2.0 it can have an option to add a kid-sized saddle for an introductory price to help a boy make his way into the arborist industry?
@@AugustHunicke My boys and I learn from you about the trees and climbing. I teach them what I can about cranes and rigging and engineering. Hopefully I can get a crane bed on my Freightliner chassis in a few years. I'm trying to set up my boys at an early age. Thus far we are having a ball with working on our own trees in TN. At 7 and 10 my boys sure make me feel old as they monkey around in the trees. But it is great to see them learn skills and responsibility while having fun.
Yet another great vid thank you August. It funny cause even tho I do tree work for a living an I climb i still love watching you guys work lol I’d love to be part a team like you guys have put together. Right now I do many contract climbing Wich is cool cause I don’t really gotta deal with all the headaches of being a business owner . The down side side is I work with a lot guys who are not tree guys so it the constant headache of not having great ground crew an constantly teach how to tie an untie a bowline lol you now all the basic greenhorn stuff an not trusting some guys to LET IT RUN anyway great vi thank u
August God bless you my friend you're still getting it at your age is amazing. it really is I hope your body stays well. I hope time goes slow because you are an amazing person God bless you and your family and your crew I'll be praying for you guys stay safe
As a former decent ground guy, and barely adequate climber, I’d like to thank you for constantly considering where the guys on the ground are before you fire up the saw. I had one foreman who wouldn’t cut for 5 seconds after he started the saw, but other than that, it was a free for all. You had 5 seconds to get out of the way, after that, it was on you while his saw was running and he was in the tree. (I also had a great foreman who was a climber for 20 years and was like a 170lbs squirrel- and he and I worked great together when I was his ground guy- both were fast, and both looked out for each other.) Point being- you know how dangerous the game is- and it’s nice to hear (because you couldn’t see in this case) you asking where your guys are and telling them to stay back before you fire up the saw.
August, you are very skilled in your field of tree work but you excel at your encouragement of your employees. You give 'atta boys' many times per day and that goes a long way to make good employees and a great company.
Hey one of these days show the top and side profile of your gaffs on a video. Have the same spurs (including the aluminum shin guards lol)but not in love with how they hold in thin bark hardwood and even less so on the new pair I just got. Going to reprofile one of them. Although to be fair I don’t climb every day so half of it is just me but I know they could be made better. Love your content btw 👍🏼
I got a file guide kit with a template from Buckingham that really helps to make sure the angle and sharpening is right. I believe I can really notice a difference when it's not right. For Hardwoods you got to be sharp!
Should be one plane to file, and all 3 corners will get sharp. Main point is the most important, the other two will help you find the angle for the flat fill
Ok this was a bit hair raising, but you had me laughing with the immorally stopped tree falling, then when you said that sucked! I understood what you were referring to. Both you and Damian did a great job staying safe and with the rigging you had in place made sense to me. It’s good to see you both up top. I look forward to the next video.
That’s one thing I don’t miss about climbing on the west coast. Tall skinny black oaks will make you talk to God. Especially when they’re wet, covered in moss, or bending and twisting in highly precarious directions. Sketch.
Crazy skill and experience showed in that huge side shoot cut. Can only imagine how many climbers have been damaged on cuts like that. Climbers be warned.
I'm fairly new to climbing. Working only for myself since I purchased my climbing equipment. I'm having to fight with my lanyard quite a bit when tightening it on the way up. Extremely hard to see your lanyard and adjustment, but looks as though you have a much more efficient lanyard adjustment/stop. Anyway that you could share a close up, if not a link to what you are using?
You make it look easy. When I coached youth soccer I'd tell the players the top professionals make it look easy because it IS easy. The hard part is all the trial and error and mistakes and experience you need to get to that place.
I have a question. I need some manning up and a good dose of the Lord, you seem to the antidote for me. Can I volunteer for a week to get over my weakness of heights and some other things?
Was Damien wearing a foot ascender over top/outside his spurs?? Looks like he has a CT Quick step foot ascender on?! I just got one and was curious how it works over top the spurs?? I wanted the CT foot ascender that bolts on to spur shaft but my arborist shop didn’t have any in stock.
I’m wondering if it’s possible for you to get the afterpay app onto your website ? I’m saving up for a harness but it’s just hard around this time of year the afterpay app could definitely come in handy for probably a lot of folks as well
Anyone know how he makes his Rock Exotica's little lever stay open to put the saw back on with one hand? Thanks! Oh, and thanks August for the awesome vids as always.
GREAT and we LEARN so much! I dropped your screen address to an EXCAVATION Channel ("DIRTDADDY953") in OKLAHOMA who was leveling BIG trees - STUMPS & all with his 953 DOZER. Said he was taking work away from guys like you but then considered he was on 100+ acre not a foot from a ROOF! Carry on and THANKS ALL!!!
That's funny... I tell people I got old enough that I needed to start writing notes to remember stuff... then I got older an now can not find my notes 😂
@@AugustHunicke I replaced the lens on mine, if it’s only the lens, it’s just a $15 piece of glass you can order. I used this video to do it. it wasn’t super hard th-cam.com/video/5C3SgCi3roU/w-d-xo.html

That subtle push as the limb detaches makes a lot of difference! Thanks i learned a new trick..👍👍

I was waiting for a raptor to pop out and take Jeff or Damian deep into the compound. The whole jurassic park comment had me 😂
Hey TH-cam!” I love your greeting.
Three things:
1.) I felt that one in Connecticut
2.) I feel like I am watching greatness! All of you guys.
3.) does Damien sound like Fozzie Bear??

Good one guys, RIP little gopro, looking forward to the pine cleanout. Be safe out there, and thanks for sharing!
I think he hated GoPro 9's in general anyway. If I remember correctly, his had issues.

Great job August..... those "splitters" are always sketchy..... expert cutting
Awesome action and film work , little gopro you will be missed. Great job guy's.
Monkey Beaver folks! Is there a saddle available for a 10yr old boy? Something that works with a lanyard and such? Is the New Tribe Twist all there is for kids?
No. There is extra small MonkeyBeaver 2.0
But it’s expensive because it’s a legit custom work saddle.

what a great view love the title .. feel bad about the camera thanks for great content love my MB harness .. Joe from California
You are a star with the bar sir. 👍
Crazy skill and experience showed in that huge side shoot cut. Can only imagine how many climbers have been damaged on cuts like that. Climbers be warned.
That grain looks just like red oak.
But the bark and all the outside growth tells me otherwise.
Hey, that tree looked like fun.....
MonkeyBeaver crew keeps on making the hard work look easy. 😎👊
Keep yourselves safe! 😃👍❤🌲
Randy
in keeping with your theme, what sort of dinosaur lives in that paddock?
August, you look so much more confident with your old spurs.
What is the contract info for the guy that did the work on your 150 I would like to get some work done on my saws thanks
Mine too

Always enjoyable
Thank you for taking us along
Way up… good job as always.
Awesome Job thanks for being ( youtubers ) Dead Tree Hugger Man ( ty Ron )
Wow, that limb dropped with speed
Very nice job!
Can’t wait for the next.
Stay safe
August Hunicke - cutting trees like a penguin ... 🙂 Now, that'd sell. Cheers PP
Awesome job as always. Damien, I can smell that sushi harness from here in Florida. Lol. Bsafe y'all.
What kind of oak is it?
Black oak
@@AugustHunicke , thx. There sure is a lot of moisture there.

🤣👏🏻👏🏻 love the Water Boy humor!!
August was “thwarted” from the canopy by that limb Lol good job fellas!! Stay safe
Good morning. Great video and good job guys.
I’m wondering if it’s possible for you to get the afterpay app onto your website ? I’m saving up for a harness but it’s just hard around this time of year the afterpay app could definitely come in handy for probably a lot of folks as well
What a title. 🤙
Cool, thanks. Looks like broadleaf uk woodland with rain an all. Thanks 👍👍😀
Nice 😊 🤙🤙 what’s up August 😊

Excellent video! Thanks.
Nice job
Good job Trees-R-Us Oregon
Climb high and stay safe
Very good
Are their lions tigers and bears that might get you in there?
Ya
Awesome!
Good stuff, great job guys!
So were the other spikes a year splitting screech from a Tera dactyl???
Why don’t you just climb and get Damien to pull the zig zag slack works a treat and straight trees allows you to just climb and save time and energy
Jurassic Park needs a new fence, they shoulda asked you to crash it and blame the T-Rex
Crushed it boys good job
If you had to pick between the ms150 vs the 2511, which would you choose?
If out of the box, the Stihl. With mods, the echo.
@August Hunicke looks like a good reason to hot rod a 2511 lol

Advice from an old fart; I only get one chance to remember something, so I write myself a note and try to not loose it. (the note). N.E.OH Bob
That's funny... I tell people I got old enough that I needed to start writing notes to remember stuff... then I got older an now can not find my notes 😂
FYI Jurassic Park was a movie. It isn't real.
Watched the whole video expecting to hear the Jurassic park theme song or quotes. Highly disapointed

Indonesian guy woulda got on somebody's shoulders in flip flops smoking a cigarette and fall the whole tree over the fence....
Too much senseless talk
Those screens are replaceable
It’s a GoPro 8 black. Not replaceable.
