Filling the entire back yard with trees

This was a nice job. We had a cluster of pines to remove, and the customer gave us permission to bomb anything we wanted. As such we threw out some pretty large tops and then just dropped the remaining sticks.

Great video you are amazing to watch. Stay safe

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Thank you, I try

[@sylviaprudhomme5417]

That was so nice to watch. I can never guess where they will fall😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

It's all scientific guess work

[@joeherbert3590]

Nice top, boss seems good.

[@christilton350]

I’ve heard of zig zags slipping for a couple reasons. Faulty lever is one and also if it’s slipping on the same part of the rope you may consider doing what I did and just start using the other end of the rope or using a larger diameter rope depending on what you are climbing on now

[@annierambo5606]

Another good video. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and God bless. 🙏🙏

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Thanks, you too!

[@rickstafford5316]

Using all available room. That’s how you do it. Great work

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Yes! Thank you!

[@geothr33]

I wanna get as good as you are with the Gibbs Klimair someday, you make it looks so easy 👍

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Thanks, just took a ton of practice.

[@normanwhiteheed7464]

You make it look easy my flendo.stay safe big guy.thanks.

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Thank you,

[@Qjones54]

I'm obsessed with you lanyard set up.

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Thanks Its a Gibbs klimair 2-in-1 15' 1/2" steelcore Flipline

[@5chris520]

Awesome job. You're a great climber. The guys on the ground seem to work hard, but leaving you setting like that in the tree was crazy.

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Yea they like to take breaks a lot.....

[@5chris520]

@ReallyTallTreeGuy I can see taking breaks but that just blowed my mind lol

[@pekerja27]

Confidence, very strong courage 💪👍

[@toddjacks8288]

Awesome job brother

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Thanks 👍

[@annierambo5606]

That is a pretty place.

[@DerangedSalad]

I have a rope runner that was doing the same thing. I soaked it in rubbing alcohol and cleaned it up really good. I moved all the joints while is was soaking to loosen up all the sap that gets in there. Now it works like new. Not sure how that will work on the zig zag though.

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Yea I cleaned the zigzag but still have the issue. I think it's about time for a larger rope.

[@sandymoses6302]

It was Jed Walters who died by a hidden limb. August told us all that climbers have a brotherhood to stick together. RIP Jed. Be careful Tall Guy. ❤

[@sandymoses6302]

The owners of that tree needs to give you a bonus ❤..$$$$$$

[@donnieharmon7596]

Stay cool out there it been hot in va

[@sandymoses6302]

Remember the hidden hanging limbs. One killed a friend of mine lately. A good climber too.

[@jbd100]

Bravo, beau travail ! 😉

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Thanks

[@sandymoses6302]

I am feeling a 'Headache and I am not there to look up😂 Lol😂😂

[@TrunkstoStumpsLLC]

My zigzag is doing the same. It was totally fine until I changed ropes. I’ve cleaned it really good and still does it. I’m assuming it’s just getting old (about 4 years old) so I’m going to be getting something else soon. Man they really just had you sitting in that tree that long… cmon now.

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Yea I'm a big guy, so I think they wear out faster with me, I think I'll have to get a larger diameter rope. If that doesn't work I can just switch to my rope runner

[@TrunkstoStumpsLLC]

@@ReallyTallTreeGuy Thinking about getting a rope runner next. I’m a heavy guy and I can’t be slipping down a tree lol

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

@@TrunkstoStumpsLLC yea definitely nice, just gotta watch out on those long decents, sometimes it likes to keep going.

[@JasonShrek-tx5yi]

How old is your ZigZag? I had the same issue, mine was 3 years old and started slipping. Bought a new one and haven't had an issue since.

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

It's only like 8 months old, same with the rope. Got them both at the same time. I just cleaned it out, so hopefully it works this week

[@sandymoses6302]

You are breathing so hard bro. Listen to what your vitals are saying. Be safe hon.

[@alltree78]

Mine did it and slowly got worse. I assumed it was from wear

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Yea that's what it looks like while I was cleaning it

[@NickTaylor-lm1lv]

Could just be the rope. Didn't you just get the new zigzag? I run one with a 12.5mm rope. Been on it over a year and no issues yet.

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Yea probably 5 or 6 months ago. Any suggestions for a 12.5 rope?

[@NickTaylor-lm1lv]

@@ReallyTallTreeGuy I'm using the petzel control 12.5 it comes in neon green and neon orange. I've also used the true blue while I was waiting on my rope to come in. The true blue is almost to big but it fits and definitely no slipping

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

@@NickTaylor-lm1lv thanks ill have to give that a shot

[@NickTaylor-lm1lv]

@@ReallyTallTreeGuy only thing with the true blue I had to tape the end really tight to get it through the links before I could get ahold of it to finish pulling it through. But all and all I was happy with the way both ropes worked with the zigzag

[@natebacon9297]

It should tell you in the owners manual how to clean your device and it's unfortunate you can't adjust the sensitivity on the zigzag bit 3 in 1 oil and wd40 is what i use to clean mine

[@ReallyTallTreeGuy]

Yea I used rubbing alcohol to get in all the parts, hopefully it works

[@sandymoses6302]

Some limbs will spring backwards once cut. Beware.
