How to set up False Crotch rigging system and why…
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июл 2024
- You sometimes come across a tree that you have to remove that requires rigging, but the rigging point isn’t ideal for the drop zone. We demonstrate a viable option for moving the rigging point to a more ideal location. Maybe there is an object that can’t be moved like a shed, greenhouse or swimming pool Maybe there is a steep gradient at the base of the tree that flattens out 7or 8 feet away and using this system would mean there is no need to keep scrambling up the bank. This technique is just one of many that can be added to your mental toolbox to provide more options for those tricky jobs.

As someone who just entered the industry this summer you’re videos and podcast are amazing, they’ve helped become a safer and more knowledgeable (apprentice) climbing arborist
Thanks buddy, that is exactly what we love to hear. The whole idea behind what we do is to demonstrate safe techniques for others to learn from and have a wider range of skills
I like your rigging !
I worked for a tree company once and I was double roping everything over a expensive garage, the Boss came back from lunch upset that he lost money at poker and told me that single rope was enough, just cut the F****** D*** thing - The butt went Right thru the man's garage and only inches from the roof of his 1969 Mach 1.... The Boss blamed me to save face in front of the customer.. The repairs cost more then the job was worth.
Super dope I never thought of this . Grateful to be learning right now
Wow dude! Never thought of doing this but that is an awesome idea. Love the videos man! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and experience
Thank you so much, had a job on that was really stressing me out, hopefully this will solve most of the issues
Cool idea I’ve never seen before. Thx
Thank you, I appreciate your comment 🙏
Outstanding! Thanks for drawing it in crayon for me. Really.
I thought that might really help a lot of people see it better, I know it would for me
Perfect for me because i don't speak english very well 👌
@@ClimbingArborist really appreciate the drawing too!
Ditto on the illustration 👍🏻👍🏻
in crayon ,lmao
Awesome idea I’ll definitely check out more
👍
Love watching your tutorials!
They've been a huge help to me.
Thank you
Nice! I’ve not seen this before. Simple and useful technique. Will definitely share this with my crews.
Great tip! Thanks for your instructional videos. Beginning my arborist adventure and I have learned a lot from your videos, Thank you.
This is brillant. Thank you very much. I just have to laugh everytime I see u using the most expensive lanyard adjuster in the worl 😄 a great part from your podcast with jamie 🙂
Glad you found it helpful, thanks for commenting 🙏 better to be the most expensive lanyard adjuster than the most expensive tool that sits in the bottom of my climbing gear box 🤣
The drawing helps. Another great vid. Keep up the good work.
Great video...as always you explain things and easy to understand...
Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it 🙏
Thanks Dan nice job & good tip stay safe stay well 👍
Big thumbs up Dan, 👍👍. Very well explained with the drawing. I learn from all your videos. Stay safe up there.
Glad you found it helpful, thanks for commenting 🙏 I thought the drawing would be a great addition 😃
Brilliant mate, thank you for sharing. Been missing your content.
Thank you, I appreciate your comment
Dan. Great job, lovely explanation and great editing. You have really great videos, this one is super great. I love the chipper paint scheme, awesome. The happy dinosaur munching away. also, I love the crayon drawing and video clip art. Super great once again Dan. Stay safe, Jim Tree.
Glad you found it helpful, thanks for your great comments and feedback 🙏
@@ClimbingArborist Dear Dan, as a climbing Arborist (Certified) I have led many crews and ran a great company many times. Many times we have to come up with solutions to obstacles that are underneath us or near our work. Some stuff you just can't move. The solution is always one of innovation and creativity. You demonstrate this very well in your videos. Thank you for your content, and keep UP the great work. Jim. And, as always, Stay Safe.
@@aerialrescuesolutions3277 Thank you, the really means a lot
Great video. Thanks for your efforts!👍👍🇨🇦
Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it 🙏
Nice job young man explained very well
Thank you
Learned something new! Excellent video.
Thank you, I appreciate your comment 🙏
Congratulations on your videos, very useful and informative !!!
🙏
Awesome 👍 never thought of that. TY
Great video Danny boy. you're churning them out these days!
Some of these have been in the works for a long while, but yes, trying to put out stuff more regularly now
Great idea! Thanks for sharing this!
Glad you found it helpful, thanks for commenting 🙏
If that's you in my wesspur catalog good job dude you look good. Nice video bro
There is a good chance it could have been me
Nice thinking, thanks for the tip😊
Glad you found it helpful, thanks for commenting 🙏
Nice work. 🌲👌🏻
Cheers Mick, appreciate the comment 🙏
Good idea for small branches,because this type of tieing create big lateral(horozontal) forces.I tie the rope up in a tree and use several re-d on the branches to move inside rigging point
Great video and one of those ideas that is so useful and simple to set up that saves the climber and the groundie so much hassle extricating branches from a conifer. Only just seen this but I´ll use it on my next tight conifer takedown. I´m assuming you did the top of that tree differently as it was way above the false crotch rigging point? Or did you just move it up higher later on?
Slick Dan - certainly a step up mate using a company to compile to the video. Well done Intreemedia.
I thought it was nicely explained for a beginner. And as others have said, the diagram sure helps understand things way easier. Who drew them tho?
I would like to see a companion one where you perhaps use similar diagrams to explain the point you were trying to make about instances where the forces on the tree stem are likely to be significantly stronger such that you have to use traditional rigging. Whilst its intuitive no doubt, as a beginner to this theory I got a little lost there
Anyway well done and certainly looking forward to other slick videos
Thank you g
Hey Dan great video mate! Never would of thought of something like that! What size diameter rope are you using there for the high line
Great technique, much more efficient than a tag line for small obstacles. You said you mostly climb conifer and I see you use a VT, do you have a tip for the sap on the rope? I have a dedicated rope for conifer but it's full of sap and I can't climb with knot on it anymore. Thanks for sharing the video
Way better than a tag line on every piece. I just clean my ropes and corgdage once in a while if they are really bad.
as a groundy i love it. prob is most climbers i work with contractors so just wana smoke it do next then home. like tho cheers
Mind blown
Good video
Thank you, I appreciate your comment 🙏
NICE!!!
Thank you, I appreciate your comment 🙏
I like to use the port-a-wrap at the bottom to tension the line on speed line set ups, but this isn't tensioned too much is it?
Offset skateblock might have worked as well!
I know the limbs are relatively light, but how are the Alpine Butterflies to untie afterwards? If slightly heavier limbs, such as heavy enough to use the wrench, would you still go with Butterfies or a different midline knot?
Nicely done, and I'll be using this at some point in the future.
In lieu of the alpine butterfly, you can hang a pulley using a prussic knot for easier adjustment should there be a need.
Also how do you like that 6" altec chipper my friend
What kind of chip box is that in the back of the pickup shows it briefly in the begging. Thanks
So that’s set up at the top of the tree with the alpine butterfly set out about 10ft from the tree. How are retrieving the lowering rope each time ? I’m thinking the groundie flicks the rope back in but just wondering if there is a more efficient way.
Cheers
having the line hard tied both ends could require some faffing to release if the tree shifts after delimbing, i would use a spare portie or tied off munter hitch for easy de-rig. thanks for the vid!
i suppose you could always just send the top with the line still in though :)
Great video Dan. I like this idea. Really easy to set up. Is your rope the new Samsun hyperclimb ? How do you like it ?
Cheers Thomas, glad you like the. Idea buddy. I’m liking the HyperClimb, it’s a nice diameter, low stretch, great all around climbing rope
Would a DMM Pinto pulley work on branches that size on an inline false crotch? I do have the spacer for the Pinto.
good vid, p.s. your chipper spout looks like Sammy the snake from phenix nights...;)
🤣
Great videos. Any chance I could quiz you about the Lyme video you did. Thanks.
Yeah buddy, ask away...
Did you end up getting a treatment protocol or was it all done through diet and herbs.
@@evanhardy2064 Never taken any pharmaceutical medication, just tried to combat it through lifestyle, diet, water fasting and herbal medicine. Wahl's protocol is a great book to get you on the right track.
It looked just like you in the rigging section.
Any equipment substitutes that would be suitable if I don't have a rigging wrench?
If you watch the video again you will see and hear me explain that I don't use the wrench for this application, I am simply using the pulley. So any rigging pulley will suffice
Pinto rig, any rigging block, large ring, rigging ring, Omni block, all will work. Omni block has the advantage of installing lowering line after the false crotch is set.
What situation would this be better than a zip line I’m curious . What are the benefits and drawbacks?
Zip-lining means the limb is MOVING, often fast. This system allows an adjustable point for a “static” rigging for swinging/holding/lowering limbs/chunks.
If you place a pulley on top of the three and place you knot a the bottom is the load would be devide ?
I don’t quite understand?
Is that an akimbo for lanyard positioning?
Yes, I just can't get it working smooth enough on my primary line but it works great on the lanyard.
@@ClimbingArborist ,little bit expensive for lanyard :)
First.... for a change
Thank you, I appreciate your comment 🙏
