Thank you, Bino! Your videos are the best. I have changed so many of my techniques and setups to be easier and safer from watching your videos. I appreciate you sharing your experience!
Simple and easy- a newer older arborists dream. What I wonder is how likely that tensioned rope could be cut by a rather large falling limb that was cut. Unlikely but probably not impossible. Thanks, your videos are always helpful Bino.
Hey Bino, I have been top rope rock climbing for a few years and am going to try my gear in a tree. Low and slow! Many of your vids have some dark back lighting. Maybe try to keep the Sun behind the camera. Anyway, I enjoy watching! You are a natural teacher and explain thing very clearly! Thanks for you vids! Ron
Question, can you use a figure 8 on a bite instead of the butterfly on you first anchor knot connecting to your quickie? Also, can you use a carabiner as a substitute for a quickie?
Yes you can but if you choose to use a carabiner you should have a hitch that won't allow your carabiner to side load. You could also use a rated screw link.
There should be a butterfly just above quicky and another one higher up luke you showed ..install lowering system on lower butterfly with emergency rope.... you save a piece of gear or two..🤔
So in the case of an emergency rescue, do you undo the quickie while under load, or cut the rope below the alpine butterfly? (after you've connected friction device and lowering rope of course.)
I made a video whith my crew and we were practicing base anchor and at 11:52 we tried a few ways to bring someone down. the video name (Basal Anchor using a Quickie and a Butterfly knots SRS) also I made another video (The Best Base Anchor for Tree Climbing) Check them out it may give you an of how it could work. Thank you!

Thank you.
great vid! whats your prefered lowerable basal anchor using a separate basal tie off?
I have ring sling with a pruisk cord that I can connect to a figure 8 and a hard lock tie off.
