i really liked seeing the two point of attachment, given that arborists have more fatal falls than other work-at-height professions.
Safest tree climber on RUclips.
Probably the slowest ascent that I have ever seen. OK for sport/rec climbing, I guess, ...but a profit sucking method for tree work. Definitely super safe!
What's the point of a stopper knot on a tail with 30 feet of the rope resting on the ground?!
p.s.
I did enjoy the video, though. Very well done as an educational effort. Will subscribe to the channel.
@@warped2875 Stopper knot is a requirement for the assessment and industry best practice under TG1,
Thanks for subscribing pal 👍
they must have 2 points of attachment at all times, seems so slow. The gear is stronger and more reliable than ever these days so this seems excessive. its still interesting to see though
@@flowwithtrees9248 The gear is more reliable seems like the trees are getting weaker In a roundabout way There's a million And one ways to skin a cat
I know I'll make that a complete tangled mess It'll be like Spider-Man on his worst day🤔😁🇺🇲
@@flowwithtrees9248I think the 2 points of a attachment is because the HSE believe that the anchor in the tree might fail so you should have another back up anchor. But you could also solve that problem by educating how to choose a reliable anchor instead of slowing people down and costing them more money but that's how the HSE works. If they had their way everyone would have a high Vis and hard hat when leaving the house
Well done! Seems like a beautiful day to be in a tree!
Thank you for sharing this technique.
Thanks good demonstration of the system.
Interesting, you're the only one on YT I've seen using two ropes per person. All other climbers use one rope, and the strop / flip line for changeovers. Is using two lines required in the UK, or is that just a personal preference of you guys? It seems like only a bit harder to manage for a lot more safety, so I'd definitely say it's a good idea.
It's a requirement here in the UK, pretty sure this guy in an instructor at a college and this is video showing part one of the course here.
Loving your videos, super educational. I’m possibly doing aerial rescue pretty soon and wondering if all this stuff is still applicable/acceptable by today’s standards? I know it’s only a year old but still. Cheers
That foot assender, do you have to take up the slack with it, or was that basically auto feeding?
In a tree that is dead or has questionable stability I think this is a good idea but to use two main lines and a lanyard your just creating more confusion and things to think about and in my experience more chance of it going wrong changing and swapping this much to get into a tree to work. Takes longer therefore you are in the tree for longer and using more energy and more mentally exhausting which can possibly be a cause for a mistake to happen. In a tree like the one in the video whats wrong with one mainline and one lanyard like people have been using for a long time. Less hassle less things to think about and keep track of less things to physically exhaust you before you get to work and less time. I understand the safety factor but does that out way everything else?
Are you UK based?
@@pershorecollegearboriculture Yes I am
@@oddball1999 The video is a revision guide for UK Arbs who are yet to be assessed for tree climbing & aerial rescue. The guide follows Technical Guide 1, known as TG1 and industry best practice, if climbers climbed one one single line and a short lanyard, they wouldn’t pass their assessment.
@@pershorecollegearboriculture Yes I realise that, I was just questioning why, as its suppose to be safer but in what I've seen more time and energy spent climbing on two main lines = more likely accidents
Is it something required in the work place as well?
@@oddball1999 Everyone in the UK should be climbing to TG1 specifications, if you don’t and there is an accident, technically insurance may not be valid
For me is more that enough.......for me....🤷🏽♂️
ive enjoyed watching this im only a roofer but that looks like madness - glad you know what your doing
I know most all the arborist gear and ropes..love my gear..ropes..but never seen that red rope you have unless camera just out focus can't tell what kind
months of watching tree climbing videos and this is the first time i have seen this technique. makes so much sense.
I don’t understand the utilities!
Beautiful tree..I like more ropes the better..
