As important as it is to know your strengths, it's equally as important to know your weaknesses. I'm sure original will learn from this and be a better tree climber as a result.
Yeah if that wobbily noodle tree bothered him to the point he had to quit,he probably shouldn't be cutting and or climbing trees. Was fairly simple tree to rig and bring down
August, its cool how you essentially made this video for the guy who referred you, so that he can learn from it as well as others, and be safe and more confident in the future. Awesome.
I agree. I started climbing about two years ago.. Your videos have helped me become more confident in both my equipment and trust in my training.. Your right new climbers hate noodles, increases the pucker factor.. Anyways long story short you are a blessing to the you tube community!
I really admire your enthusiasm and dedication to a risky occupation. I can relate to why people like you and others do. The reason why I can relate, is that many years ago when I was taking an advanced Parachute course at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, we were doing a very early morning jump 4:30 am. The plane over shot the target area and gave the green light. I ended up in a clump of tall pine trees. I had cuts and scrapes,but ok. After the headcount I and a few others were missing. The others were located quickly but I was so far up I couldn't be found by the small crew. When I was located, a local tree company was brought in to get me down. I was very nervous about this after being in the trees for most of the day. However, one guy comes up cutting his way to me and talking about how he's here to help me out. Well, I can say that once he got close and assessed the situation, it didn't take long until I was on the ground. I thought jumping out of aircraft was exciting, but this was by far the best experience in my young life!! My deepest respect to what you guys do. And to this day I'm still afraid of heights!!
Excellent as always…for new climbers you also beautifully exemplified not only how to load the rigging stems correctly but by opening the rope angles at your rigging points you decrease loading per rigging point…super important in flexy environs…love seeing delicate work done well…
I am 61-1/2 and in the past, I have been on all kinds of rides hanging Iron and building scaffolding 1983 to 1990. These freak out jobs were when I was in my mid-twenties. I am tickled to have this channel to view in the wee hours of the morning in NH while lacing up my boots for a ground job in Alton NH. I get the rush of what I didn’t know then what I am aware of now. You guys set the temple of my day a lot from time to time. Thanks
What a golden opportunity for a new climber, having a guru video the job you so smartly walked away from. No harm, no foul. We all seem to take those jobs when we first start out. Seems easy enough and the lure of money overrides our common sense. Most of us get lucky and avoid a serious injury, or worse. Kudos to both; one for knowing when to tap out and one for recognizing a teachable moment.
Your "...overexplaining..." is fantastic. It significantly increases my understanding of what you are doing. Thanks for the time you take to place extra cameras. Your videography is the finest of any channel I watch.
There is no such thing as "over explaining" ... This is particularily the case when addressing your audience via a camera; you have no feedback, thus no way of guaging the level of the viewers comprehension ... Personally, I like your presentation style, I think you have found the right balance making these videos interesting, informative and entertaining to watch. Keep doing what you're doing and thank you for taking the time to do it 😎
It may be as simple as the first guy not having the ground support to properly rig this. I love the way you loaded the rigging tree along its axis by balancing forces.
Not often I see your videos within 8 min of it being up, enjoy your tutorials, its all making sense, keep up the great work and videos, we both enjoy, and appreciate them. Hmm I still have one throw ball in a tree that I will finally get reunited with when the tree comes down, hehe.
I'm 3 years in and you constantly give me the reassurances to climb higher and trust instincts and the trees more. As I climb these noodles 🍜🍜🍜, and dead ☠️☠️💀💀💀 rotten trees I think back to your words of wisdom, and experience and it gives me some relief knowing older mavericks like you are still dominating the industry with guts.
hat off to young climber who decided not to go up there as others said know your limitations , but also i take my hat off to you August case that stem didn't look like it would support its self as it was and yet you show with a little extra assistance from another tree that twig carried you also , really do enjoy your videos
August I want to thank you and your crew iv been watching y’all for about 2 years I’m a climber in western Ky been doing it off and on sense I was about 16 I learn the hard way watched a guy climb about 10ft up I thought It looked cool I asked to try it and been hooked ever sense learning threw trail and area and some blood and tears but I wanted to think you for all your hard work for your videos and the time you put into them and explaining everything and iv got a lot to learn but my climbing game has changed threw watching your videos so thank you love all your videos but this one by fare is my favorite because the camera angles and the drone work was amazing
Really enjoyed the video. Good timing. I come across these noodle takedowns every now and then. So far I've had room to cut and drop. Climbing thin bouncy noodles is nerve racking. Thanks for the lessons.👍
Action shots of The Adam, Jeff to the Rescue, Damian getting called out by August, Face Cut/Stump explanations, dropping a camera from height, this gem has it all! Y'all stay safe!
This was a fun one to watch. Noodle trees are fun but they sure can be nerve racking to rig from. Rigging redundancy and smooth work makes it more comfortable.
I really liked this so much! It shows you at your best, explaining and teaching, in your easy going way, always helping and never criticizing. I wish I had started watching these years ago. I would be a better climber now. Thank you so much for all you do.
August, I recently bought the Fundamentals of General Tree Work book and have been reading it solidly for the past few days. I am currently growing my own tree work and landscape design company. I have also just ealized that you are a sponsored advocate of the book with a quote on on its back cover along with a couple other online mentors of mine (notably Buckin Billy and Reg Coates) and I want to let you know that I #1 appreciate the vast knowledge contained in that book, #2 acknowledge that the book almost went out of print and am grateful to have that wealth of knowledge at my fingertips and #3 greatly cherish your educational, informative and entertaining videos here on RUclips. The day you hang up your spurs is one I wish does not come soon. Climb high and work smart brother. Godspeed to you, your family and your crew.👊
Hey August, thanks for another informative video, definitely have learned a lot from you over the years. Just wanted to put it out there, scandere is a Yale Cordage rope. They're a great company, all US made ropes I believe, with a great arborist rep. They do good work, and so do you. Mad respect, keep on keeping on.
The quality of your videos is amazing. Is there RUclips Awards for outstanding videos? I'd nominate you August for multiple categories. Thanks for sharing this...
Thanos your right on that one. Glad he referred to a fellow arborist & way to go team for another great production. Happy Thanksgiving team pray it was a good one for you all.
Thanks August! I was surprised how sturdy the MonkeyBeaver rope bag is. Was using it as my rigging bag carrying a large portawrap with 3/4 inch ultra sling, 3/4 inch pulley with sling, and two 3/4 inch thimbles with slings, and using the waist strap as a shoulder strap before watching one of your videos on how to use it. Now it makes a great compact rope bag to carry climbing rope in!
A great video for using what you have in the work site, Not just the tree you’re climbing ( the ash tree). New climbers sometimes have blinders on. We all did at one point. Thank you for showing lighter rigging gear. Stay safe
Your an Engineering Artist, August ! Really learned a lot today, even though I am in no way a tree guy. Hope the referral guy watched, and learned a thing or two !
Definitely a great video hopefully a lot of new climbers will take a lot away from this video thank you August so much for explaining and detail it really helps
The battery saw seems to have allot of kickback in the hardwood....am I wrong? Great job on the flimsy noodle. Those are really sketchy when you first get into climbing, & kinda always sketchy😁👍 STAY SAFE
Great video August. Great views all @!!that was a nasty leaner over the house,but you had a vision and most definitely nailed it. Love it sir. Hope alls well in your neck of the woods 💚 🌳 👊 👍 MB👍👊🌳💚
Cheers Mr Monkey Beaver, another really interesting one. I'm ground manning for my dear colleague - we always have this discussion about carabiners on rigging lines. I say it's a no-go, because given enough time it will end up in your face/dental area for sure at a certain point in time. He's on about the advantages of a bit of weight and so on and such.. I see you use the carabiner instead of a timber hitch too. Any more argumentations for it? Greetings and much appreciation from a small place overseas.
That type of rigging maximizes the strength of the tree by loading the stems axially. You're making the rope the same angle on both sides. It takes routing the rope through multiple crotches. 👍
Here’s my question. At about 10:24 ff you scaled up that wobbly leaner. Did I see that correctly? No secondary harness or flip line and the climbing rope was going to horizontal. So is balancing on that leaner an issue? You make it look quite easy! I find those the hardest to climb with an impetus to swing to the underside in the event of a loss of balance, gaff issue, etc? Any advice in this specific skill? Great videos as always. Just started climbing...58 years old. Loving it!
Good job guys. Hope everybody had a blessed Thanksgiving. Take care and have a blessed day and I'll see you on your next vidja. Oh tell Damien to be careful with the drone 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Your experience made it look 'easy'. You can visually 'see' what needs to be setup. Hope the other 'guy' gets ahold of you. So you can return his throw 'sock'. Take care - be safe - hope the crew / family and you are doing well.
Hey August Gavin hartmann here I was just wondering if ya'll heard of four seasons tree service they are from Hildebrand north Carolina ya'll do amazing work I got three pin oaks from around the 50s I think my house is right on the main road my great grandfather built the main roads ya'll still drive on today hope to hear from you August
The audio seems better than it usual, did you guys buy a new mic or 2? Maybe it's just me, got a new audio system on the computer a couple of weeks ago, might be I'm just hearing it clearer. Chipper sounds better than usual. Miss the crackle of that Echo. You looked a bit like a chainsaw wielding spider up there with all that rigging. Nice drone shots. The drone like a flying squirrel in the trees trying to escape the spider.... Thanks for taking the extra work to do such a 1st rate filming of your job.
Two what ifs: 1) How to approach this job if a person was to work it solo? 2) How to approach this job if the only tree being removed was the one leaning over the house?
Hi August, in the case that the tree or limb you are clipped to fails & gravity kicks in do you try to unclip from your tree you are standing on & free fall until your safety line catches you or do you ride it down & hope your safety line can hold you & the tree off the ground ?
curious george question? when deciding if a tree can hold your weight do ya ever consider the amount of snow load it has held when relating to your body weight,? ORR maybe I'm over thinking but , what I mean is like can ya look up see all the branches and think hey so if those branches held all that heavy weight moisture rich snow , It can can probly hold myself? I'm sure species of tree goes into it as well which maybe you could talk about or do a vid.?? Did that make sense??
I noted that you went DRT and I just wondered why? You may have discussed this in earlier vids but I missed it. Possible topic when you get covered up this winter? Love your thoughtful approach to teaching.
Man you've done a lot of cool videos. But this is the best so far. I have a Japanese Lotus tree with the same exact scenario. But the Lotus has an 8 year old tear out wound hole right at the bend of the trunk. It has good healing around the hole but it's technically hollow. I'm scared to really put my weight any higher than ten feet above the hollow.
Hey August 👋🏼 Just left your new video of the new climber Evan and came back to this video that I missed. BTW guys a nature at climbing if he's already do all I've seen him do..even with your help and Damian. Quick question. Is that your brand fleece jacket or where did you get it..sorry maybe a dumb question but I just don't know all the items you sale at monkeybeaver.. just figured I'd ask after seeing the panther emblem! Thanks brother. Climb high, Reach high, & always have faith.
Please don’t think you are over explaining! We need teachers like you need to explain so green horns like me can be safe and understand things only experience can teach!
If the white oaks weren't being removed and you couldn't impact em or prep for rigging spar would've you have rigged it out the same way? Or would span rig be a possibilty?
August, thank you for every time you over explain anything!
Props to the guy who had the integrity to admit when he was over his head.
August will climb anything any where.lol
As important as it is to know your strengths, it's equally as important to know your weaknesses. I'm sure original will learn from this and be a better tree climber as a result.

August, I have recently begun climbing and your over explanation is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I really admire your enthusiasm and dedication to a risky occupation.

@@AugustHunicke But you are the Freddie Mercury of the tree world though. 👍
August you never over explain. You’re at another level compared to most of us so never assume we know what you know😊
Excellent as always…for new climbers you also beautifully exemplified not only how to load the rigging stems correctly but by opening the rope angles at your rigging points you decrease loading per rigging point…super important in flexy environs…love seeing delicate work done well…

I always appreciate it when you explain why you rig the way you do.
You are always doing a great job explaining the work and prepping to show us too on u tube. Great work!
Damn I could watch you for hours!
Top class work, media, and commentary.
Many thanks.
So glad the previous arborist called for you. Now he can see how it could be done safely. You are always so generous, August. Thank you.

I think that Reg would definitely approve of this rigging technique August:)

Great job, and thanks for all the instructions that'll help alot of climbers new and old! Thanks for taking the time
I love the Yale 48 strand kernmaster line it's the best rope super smooth I agree August
A great video for using what you have in the work site, Not just the tree you’re climbing ( the ash tree).

19:32 is that a compression/tension split in the trunk? Very good call on the homeowner's part to take down that tree.
Great angles with the drone shots!

Proper noodle job 😎 you get all the best jobs August 🤘
Good job guys. Hope everybody had a blessed Thanksgiving. Take care and have a blessed day and I'll see you on your next vidja. Oh tell Damien to be careful with the drone 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great video, made it look easy!
You were explaining the forces in the beginning of the video. The resultant is the direction the force is applied into the redirect.
😂"I'll take that rope" I have to remind myself the ground guys need time. For some reason time gets altered when you are in the tree.
lol "I'll take that rope/clip", it's like the most passive aggressive thing I say about 100 times/day.
Your experience made it look 'easy'. You can visually 'see' what needs to be setup. Hope the other 'guy' gets ahold of you. So you can return his throw 'sock'. Take care - be safe - hope the crew / family and you are doing well.
Great job men, that's good tree work, yappy, koala Bob
What do you do about small twigs on the roof? Do you have to leaf blow them off, or just tell the customer the wind will blow them off?
Thanks for going on a limb and putting that cam to get great vidjas. I ain't gonna lie, I would have been skeered too. 👊🤘🤙
Hey August Gavin hartmann here I was just wondering if ya'll heard of four seasons tree service they are from Hildebrand north Carolina ya'll do amazing work I got three pin oaks from around the 50s I think my house is right on the main road my great grandfather built the main roads ya'll still drive on today hope to hear from you August

You looked a bit like a chainsaw wielding spider up there with all that rigging. Nice drone shots. The drone like a flying squirrel in the trees trying to escape the spider....
Thanks for taking the extra work to do such a 1st rate filming of your job.
I run the same kinda rope and it's the best super smooth and really awesome on ur hands
what is the name of the rope?
Yale scandier or something like that it's Yale 48 strand line kernmaster is the same thing
@@mrgardner6405 thank you for the info, I’ll look it up
Two what ifs:
1) How to approach this job if a person was to work it solo?
2) How to approach this job if the only tree being removed was the one leaning over the house?
Awesome job as always!!
Props to the guy who made the good judgment call!! Respect
You work late getting these videos up. Good job August.
Excellent job man!
Hi August, in the case that the tree or limb you are clipped to fails & gravity kicks in do you try to unclip from your tree you are standing on & free fall until your safety line catches you or do you ride it down & hope your safety line can hold you & the tree off the ground ?
🤷🏼♂️ I just keep things within their means

Yep
Very nice Sir.x
Great crew you've got, everyone knows their role
I noted that you went DRT and I just wondered why? You may have discussed this in earlier vids but I missed it. Possible topic when you get covered up this winter? Love your thoughtful approach to teaching.
i love your videos
Man you've done a lot of cool videos. But this is the best so far. I have a Japanese Lotus tree with the same exact scenario. But the Lotus has an 8 year old tear out wound hole right at the bend of the trunk. It has good healing around the hole but it's technically hollow. I'm scared to really put my weight any higher than ten feet above the hollow.
Awesome video brother
I wish I could climb! I’ll stick to the ground and bucket for now lol.
How long does that battery last?
Awesomeness! As always. Hope he came to get his throw ball. Lol
Hey August 👋🏼 Just left your new video of the new climber Evan and came back to this video that I missed. BTW guys a nature at climbing if he's already do all I've seen him do..even with your help and Damian. Quick question. Is that your brand fleece jacket or where did you get it..sorry maybe a dumb question but I just don't know all the items you sale at monkeybeaver.. just figured I'd ask after seeing the panther emblem! Thanks brother. Climb high, Reach high, & always have faith.
Wow great job proves you are a pro. Like climbing a wet noodle
With the wind and cut sections hitting anchor tree you had a wild ride. Wind was terrible.
amazing mica
Please don’t think you are over explaining! We need teachers like you need to explain so green horns like me can be safe and understand things only experience can teach!
I gotta say, August with the fresh shave looks years younger..
Higth champion 💪🏼😎👍🏻👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wow! You just flossed between those bushes
If the white oaks weren't being removed and you couldn't impact em or prep for rigging spar would've you have rigged it out the same way? Or would span rig be a possibilty?
We would’ve used the white oaks probably but protected them.
@@AugustHunicke just asking for a friend took a chunk out of some white oak removing a maple growing the same way
