[@whiterabbit6111]

two things: 1) I thought I was cripplingly weak for a large guy, watching you chop some mighty large beastly pieces, then discovered that Australian gum trees are just really hard wood and that's why I appear to suck. 2) You always make me smile, so cheers for that.

[@NicoleCoenen]

Ah yes, the Australian gum tree.... it's feared amongst all woodchoppers 😳 It's basically the final boss.

[@abonham82]

Far out, I also assumed I was just weak for the same reason! Especially after watching the wood chopping competition at the Easter Show.

[@maxnaz47]

As an Aussie that was raised in the bush, i thought all wood chopping was the same... To see some people being able to split wood in a single swing was astounding to me, i thought i had so much to improve that i i didn't think i could ever achieve the same technique... I'm glad I'm not the only 1...

[@Centurian128]

[@pxrays547]

An older hetero type male here (width and breadth of your audience), I have not seen any of your videos that is the least bit cringe. Quite the opposite; positivity, humor, beauty, informational, inspirational, a great example of livin' yo life, what else..... can't think of anything else right now. Keep up the good work and ignore the haters. Also a fan of Lizzy Borden, another excellent chopper, I know; completely different genre, so take it for what it's worth.

[@alistairwhite2906]

Ok, I'm a straight guy but your thirst traps absolutely worked on me. But, in saying that, your personality is definitely one which I'd love to be able to sit down with, to have a drink and discuss life. Please keep on being you, as it's so refreshing compared to so much of the current online environment. And yeah, Fiskars products for the win.....! Oh, if you ever feel like coming to Australia, I'll get you some Red Gum and Iron Bark to try and chop. That will give you a challenge!

For splitting rounds, I often just use wedges with a sledge hammer. For beginners, a hammer is a bit more forgiving than an axe. Also, old axe heads make for cheap wedges. (Canadian prices are higher than US)

If this has to be a whole genre I couldn't think of a better and more brighter ambassador to the genre then Nicole. At first when I ran across her videos I thought "This has to be some kind of thirst trap or some strange form of therapy. But the more videos I got to seeing honestly I couldn't stop. Always bringing a smile, not taking yourself serious and throwing in a little actual education at times lol. Seriously, Nicole I adore you and your videos have brought me out of dark moments without fail.

After decades of cathartic beating on firewood, I was finally defeated by some 18” green-as-the-grass birch. Maul kept bouncing off.

Keep up the wonderfully fulfilling videos Nicole, they maintain my faith in humanity!

Nicole and others doing Lesbian Lumberjack thirst traps... Then there's me, getting back spasms and knees locking, trying to pick up a fallen pen off the floor... 😅😅😅

[@howtogetoutofbabylon8978]

Nicole is so right; It is VERY freaking satisfying. On one of my early wood splitting videos like I said it's very cathartic. I thought of mental emotional but that means emotional release. Is it very much a way to do therapy... I'm 69 years old and a church wedding with about 3 years ago but if someone had told me that I would get addicted to splitting firewood I would have told him they were absolutely insane because manual labor was not in my vocabulary I hated manual labor. His brother Pedro was okay but I hated to sweat... I was a bookworm worm and I grew up reading. Because you went camping so much in the summer time into the farms I learned to love the outdoors. Then we move to the country in 1997 and we had to eat with wood... But my son's always splitfire wood or we had a somebody with a log splitter nearby. But 2017 at 62 years old, I became addicted to splitting firewood!!! I think I will live longer because of that!!!

Several of my buddies at work do the crossfit thing where they take a sledgehammer and repeatedly hit a tractor tire with it to "simulate" splitting wood. I have repeatedly invited them over to my place to help me split firewood. I'm like "Hey, you could have the genuine real thing here, and I'll only charge you HALF what crossfit does AND I'll throw in some bonus cardio 'haul-and-stack' training at no extra charge." But so far no one have taken me up on the offer.
