    Very useful video, thank you. With the final technique of putting a cambium saver around a lower branch and going up and over something above, am I right in thinking this has implications for force multiplication on the higher limb?

    • @mickarblife

      Yes this can increase the force on the higher limb. You are basically doing a base tie but in the tree. So being aware of how you are compressing and pulling the limbs is key to whether you are increasing the force or spreading the force between the anchors you select. Hopefully that makes sense thanks for the comment 👍🏻

      Thanks for your reply and for the confirmation 👍🏼 Do you know where to find more information on the force multiplication side of things? Seems like a very important aspect of SRT.

      @@tommyRfrancis there has been talks on it at some arb shows but not sure if anyone has done a vid on RUclips tho sorry. I will have a look might be an article on it somewhere

    Would be extremely happy with more complex videos on this, thanks for putting in the time

      Ye sure Ned I will try get something out in the next month or so. Thanks for watching

    A very well explained video. Would love to hear more about those more advanced canopy anchors you mentioned. Good to see you back

      Thanks for the feed back and I’m happy to be back and making more vids. Hopefully more helpful vids for people to learn the odd tip from here and there. I will do another vid on the more advanced anchors at some point as well 👍🏻

    good anchors. I use a base anchor for majority of my work that needs retrieval

    Good video. The first knot you tied, looked like a bowline with a double fishermans? Rather then a yosemite bowline?

    • @mickarblife
      @mickarblife  5 месяцев назад

      Ye that is correct 👍🏻

    "You have your shot into the tree....." I'm guessing you use SRT? Each to their own I suppose, but it all seems so unnecessarily complicated and time consuming. In the time you've got your throw line sorted, I'm already in the lower crown with the ladder. "Free" climb to the top, get your saver in, (im not a complete fossil, lol) establish your main anchor point and you're good to go. I've coped on DRT with 5 knots for 48 years.

    • @mickarblife
      @mickarblife  2 месяца назад +1

      If it works for you don’t change it 👍🏻 just giving people options for different ways of climbing that’s all. Some trees it’s defo quicker to just ladder up and away you go 👍🏻

    • @tommyRfrancis
      @tommyRfrancis 2 месяца назад

      I hear what you are saying and agree on trees where it is feasible to climb between limbs.
      However, on bigger trees where you physically cannot throw your rope up to the next branch, SRT is a game changer.
      Using your legs to get 20m up a tree rather than your upper body, means you are not exhausted before you even start cutting.
      Plus when you set up a 3:1 after you have sorted your anchor point, pulling yourself around the tree becomes a joy!! 😊

    Would it be worth mentioning the extra force on the top anchor? In your tight crotch system(the last one) you showed.

    • @mickarblife
      @mickarblife  4 месяца назад

      Ye prob should have mentioned that it can increase the load on the anchor but also if done correctly can share the load. Thanks for the comment I will try address this in another vid.

    This form of using a ring (Giorgio Fiori) also minimizes friction on the tree: ruclips.net/video/UkzsOhjtuu8/видео.html
    What's your opinion?

    • @mickarblife
      @mickarblife  3 месяца назад +1

      Interesting another anchor idea. I guess with multiple redirects it might start to struggle might have to see how it is very simple
