Aerial rescue training tool | Tree climbing competitions

[@mr34]

There is never enough emphasis on rescue. Most people think it will nevr happen... until it does and they don't know what to do. Thanks for sharing this.

[@marcelomangarosa2020]

I’m climber 🧗‍♀️ apprentice in Massachusetts, this is a good class! That’s awesome 👏

[@ClimbingArborist]

Thanks, glad you like it and find it helpful

[@ricchoe]

Thank you. 5 years in the tree business and this is the first video on aerial rescue I’ve ever seen

[@ClimbingArborist]

Ricchoe thanks buddy, I’m glad you came across this video and the channel, we are always trying to share a wide variety of information.

[@nicholasceea4109]

Nice work Dan! When that checklist popped on screen I got all tensed up because it reminded me of the EMT practical exam at the end of 150 hours of classroom. I think 8 testing stations and we didn't know the scenario until walking into the test room, so we had to memorize a whole bunch of those checklists in proper order.

[@ClimbingArborist]

Glad you liked it!

[@gerardoreyes8203]

Greetings from Santa Rosa, CA. I don’t think your channel gets enough credit for the content you put out for the rest of us. I’m definitely sharing your vids with my social media platform. Thanks for all you do !

[@ClimbingArborist]

Thank you for your kind words, very much appreciated 🙏

[@neightjay]

Nicely done Dan. It’s a shame that companies don’t promote this training more. Also nice job on the Educated Climbers podcast. 👍🏼🇨🇦

[@ClimbingArborist]

Thanks for your comments buddy, much appreciated. I really commend companies that do put the effort in to rescue training

[@proxy7863]

Thank you for the video, there is so little information on youtube about rescuing. An idea for a video would be to talk about all the different methods and gear for rescuing casualties out of a tree. A lot of guys I teach and examine don't know that they need to add extra friction into their zigzag or srt system when you have a two person load on one rope.

[@ClimbingArborist]

Yes, its important to be familiar with equipment and systems in a rescue situation as you never want to be doing something unfamiliar in a high pressure scenario

[@Treeclimbercartel86]

Thanks for this video will be doing my cs38 aerial rescue very soon so will keep watching this closely good job climbing arborist

[@ClimbingArborist]

Thanks for the comment dude, good luck with the CS38

[@colinwalker1626]

Great video. Thanks for putting yourself out there!

[@ClimbingArborist]

Cheers, glad you liked it

[@keithstoner1732]

nice! just a small point. confirm very very first that the tree is not energized. you were already touching the tree and rope by the time you stated and looked around that there was no electrical hazards.

[@ClimbingArborist]

Great tip, thanks Keith

[@mvblitzyo]

wow dan, it looks so different through a camera , yes this is very helpfull. I had to reuse two guys over a 30 year career in tree work . one was in a bucket , the other in a tree , with a dislocated shoulder .. both were given medical attend at a later date, we were the only two on a job at that time . this was many years ago. It reminded me of how panicked, I was , helping a co-worker in need of help. great video . ps love the pod cast with tree mugs too !

[@MrMuhamad1994]

This is very well done. Thank you! I took a lot of tips from you to fill out my apprenticeship homework!

[@Happytree-t3l]

Nice job Good information thanks man

[@ClimbingArborist]

Thanks, glad you find it useful

[@jamesburton9408]

Hi Dan nice video, if you get chance, please post the checksheet.

[@spelunkerd]

I've been looking for a video like this, thanks for the effort.

[@RAILKING25]

Great work, thanks for your effort!

[@ClimbingArborist]

Cheers Matt

[@thecornishwildcamper]

Great video on aerial rescue as regards the casualty I'd of thought anything like bleeding could be dealt with on assessment in the air and if unconscious straight to ground for cpr

[@kevinparent8843]

Thank you its instructive. Good idea to share this 🖖

[@Matt-ve2xx]

Great video thanks. Question: Would their been any benefit to you using a zigzag & chercane?

[@2Husqy]

5:10 would u suspect suspension trauma at this point as well? Obviously he has a dislocated arm but if the scenario was different would you move him around to get the blood flow even again to stop pooling? .. again .. the main thing would be to get him down to the ground asap .. just a thought as well if they were in a confined spot as well .. great vid mate 👍 love your work

[@treeclimbingbrazilronaldo6450]

Excelente os seus videos mostrando as modalidades do campeonato. Aqui no Brasil estamos evoluindo a passos largos para competir de igual para igual nos campeonatos internacionais!

[@adamworboys9732]

Awesome work man. Love your videos, keep them coming 👍🌳🧗🏻‍♂️

[@gregbrown9271]

Did a great job 👍

[@ClimbingArborist]

Cheers buddy

[@TravelQuintessence]

Great Video 👍🏿 Loved it

[@JustJimJr]

Excellent 👍, for a new guy looking in; you beat me by 20+minutes.

[@ClimbingArborist]

Glad you find this video useful

[@nildo7575]

bellissimo video!!!!

[@chadwilson4191]

Good job brother

[@callumwill9509]

Got my aerial rescue course on Tuesday, wish me luck!👍

[@doublemintmaple]

Good job

[@ClimbingArborist]

Cheers buddy

[@fraboobahoo]

Thanks Dan and Nice job. Do you know where I can find this checklist and checklists relating to others scenarios? Any other resources/ links you can think of for aerial rescue training/ lessons?

[@ClimbingArborist]

The checklist is the score sheet from ISA tree competitions

[@Vscustomprinting]

Do you think theres been more of a shift towards this kind of training 4 years on?

[@lukemeans9775]

What did you use to secure the victim to you before you descended?

[@NathanWarton]

Good to check the path of the rope on decent as i see it can get caught on the legs and other things. otherwise goodjob mate!

[@ClimbingArborist]

Great point, and see the tail of the rope catching many people out in both aerial rescue and work climb events. There is actually plenty of rope to get to the ground in this instance, it looks like a bit of a tangle because I have a blue moon lanyard that is on the dummy's leg which look similar to the Cougar blue rope being used for the primary system. Thanks for the comment dude

[@mattb8436]

An arborist just lost his life today at the NC Zoo in Asheboro NC conducting one of these drills. Stay safe man.

[@TheOaxaco29]

woow great job

[@ClimbingArborist]

Cheers buddy

[@Megacowmilker353]

Got my tree climbing and aerial rescue assessment tomorrow. (Shitting feathers).

[@harryaxford530]

how did it go, ive got mine next week.

[@Megacowmilker353]

Went very well. It’s not as bad as you think. You just got to climb high to set your anchor points so you can move easily around the tree.

[@alancanfield5979]

Great job. Don't be so hard on ur self..

[@ClimbingArborist]

Cheers bro, but plenty of room to improve, which makes for a better learning tool in my opinion. People can see where they would do things differently and more thoroughly

[@stephenlawlor211]

The andrenalin is pumping and it's hard to remember everything ! Hopefully never need to do one !

[@ClimbingArborist]

I hope nobody is ever put in a real life rescue situation, but we should be prepared because every second counts...

[@stephenlawlor211]

Climbing Arborist : So true ! For the question marks during the rescue ! We're not doctors should we go poking around the casualty up in the air ??

[@Bluecollar711]

👊👊👊👊👊

[@Bluecollar711]

💪🙏💯👊

[@simonpointner]

Call the lose gear buddy ;)

[@ClimbingArborist]

Thanks bro. like I said at the beginning and end, this is far from perfect and the one piece of loose gear in the rescue is something that wasn't called.
