Honestly, I think this is the best arborist channel on YT, Paddy/EC takes time to show and tell, a nice change from the superstar arb` channels and the `Look at me` vibes that often accompany them. Great rope skills, explanations of canopy progression, rigging and some excellent tutorials....also that daisy chain rigging hitch is superb, something I probably would`nt have come across here in the UK arb` culture. Thanks Patrick.

With a construction background I was curious the first time I saw you tie a daisy. We would use this knot often but for a different reason (like storing extension cords) and clearly it was tied a little different. Clearly the construction version lacks the twist at the beginning and the tag end being secured. Had to watch your hands closely. I've rigged with a running bowline for years now but have fun using the daisy with long tag- works great when you tie the knot correctly (unlike what I was taught years ago)

What's the point of the half hitch before the daisy chain knot? So it doesn't slide around? Stability?
@532woodchuck2 жыл бұрын
Two reasons, first and foremost a knot reduces strength of the rigging line so the half hitch takes the weight off the actual knot and second it reduces the possibility of the knot moving in a free fall. Hope that helps.

I know the feeling of the retrievable pulley not coming back to you. Partly the reason I stopped using my U-saver. I only use drt every so often now so a friction saver just sits in my gear bag. But a few climbs up to get it back was the end of it. Hah good work and climb safe!

I think Patrick explained this technique in another video but I can't remember which one. It's basically a snap-cut that will slide off/downward easily so there's not much swinging out from the tip-tied end. Similar to a slash/salami cut but with more control in the release.
