Without saying a word YOU CAN LIGHT UP THE DARK. You all remind me of the Keith Whitley song When you Say Nothing at All. Thank you. God Bless You All ❤❤❤
As a retired lineman I can honestly say that climbing that way looks like a pain in the ass. Never climbed a pole belted in in all my years. I retired in 1997 and the old timers would have kicked me off of their truck if I tried to climb belted in. There's so much crap on the poles that it would take you all day just to get to the top.
All these comments decrying the new equipment and complaining how they did it better back in the day......was that way worth the deaths and severe injuries that virtually don't exist anymore from falls and burns that came with free climbing? I have been climbing for 28 years, free climbing most of that and while I didn't care for the conversion, you adjust and can do everything more safely. What use is a job if you can't go home in one piece at the end of the day? Good instructor in the video, I tend to favor a tighter grouping of poles and positioning myself in such a way I can see most of what is going on (he has his back to half his group at any time). If it's their first time transitioning, you should have someone demonstrating each step as he explains it. I prefer to demonstrate while explaining.

Christ even the body mechanics and hand movements buckling nbuckling just wouldnt fly with my Utility. THey need to demonstrate first , and build step by step as if second nature kicks in..
@@Bagheera98creating bad work habits which in turn will make their job more dangerous whether or not they are in training we learned when we started to climb to have 1 leg locked and the other slightly bent not that hard to understand
When I was going through climbing school there was never any of this double safety bullshit..You free climbed up and over objects,dudes were hitting the ground then gone the rest of the class..7 graduated out of 20…That’s where the saying comes from separating the men from the boys ..Linework wasn’t for everyone now apparently it is
Up thru secondary meanwhile WWTF . and the students are doing things even before he finished instruction. what a joke. Christ one guys humpin a pole . Man hes the one ID go AFter , Trying to impress without even listening first. Thats the danger kid.. Dont have to be para military training but it wouldnt hurt to train mechanics over and over till u got it down without having to think it thru. The mechanics suck here. simple things like buckling. One guys reaching across with opposite hand . Its just weird to me.. Tell me Im wrong I dunno???!!!
What are you even going on about? What the guy is doing is building confidence in his equipment. The teachers want to see that since that is a what keeps most people from reaching the top. I even hand like he does sometimes. its pretty good for resting your legs and feet.
@@elyadrian8871 I think dude is a weirdo hes been commenting the same crap on multiple threads. I dont even think this guy is qualified but on youtube everyone can be an expert lol
Coming from a climbing school student this teacher is way too soft. Our teacher would of had us doing up downs on the 40s till we puke if we did some of the shit going on here.
@@peytoncappitelli5864 tell that too the guys saying Im wrong. Be safe Yeah this class this school looks like a real joke. BUt not sure what they are expected in this cert wise. To me it doesnt look safe .
Thank you for all you do. You all risk your lives to help us be comfortable. ❤❤❤

Great video! Thank you for sharing!
What an awesome video! I really think this is one of the best line schools in the nation!
U must be an employee or owner because this is nowhere near elite or even half professional
Brilliant teacher.. Wish i could attend these classes...
U must work for this school... This isnt a good school at all. do your research before paying for this clown act
You can go, it’s only about 25-30k tho
What camera was this filmed on looks amazing 💪🤙🏻

Thank God I retired after 42 years of free climbing before all this stuff was mandatory.
Yep any sissy can climb these days

Look at the hot dog over there staring at his shit on the ground. What a chump! Lol
Your secondary should always be on top of the buck squeeze
The sissification of line work.
F OSHA!
I spy a student putting his caribeaners on his D rings backwards lol.
because this school is horrible..... So many of there vids show deficiencies in training
that cat taking his hooks out the pole needs to be failed.
He saw that on a video and before he knows nothing about the trade wants to seem ahead of his time
I learnt on my first day

reps are all that matter
@@RauTheCow development thru repetition is what you really meant..
@@culbyj3665 read between the lines lol
Try climbing a tree
With pole gaffs
Pruning without spikes
I used to climb trees as a kid this is alot harder especially when you reach the top to actually work
@@elyadrian8871 laughs in professional arborist
Leaning hard over a house with no good tie in lol
Why are most of the students both legs locked makes no sense
Bc they're still in training? It makes no sense not to understand that, lol.

@@Bagheera98I would rather have one leg locked than both especially when I'm transferring 😂 but that's just me to much risk
You will hit the dirt if you put your transfer rope under your fixed object 😂
