5:50 I might add NEVER position yourself in line with the swing where you can be potentially cornered (very dangerous). if the angle is pulling the piece toward you then work position above the cut. big pieces are great only if the risk can be negated. Pfanner man in cali 4:47 is a much safer example (he's work positioned above the cut) Thank you for the vid but thought this safety note is very important

Sweet vid dude! 6:50 (and after that) nicely shows how the two rigging points put compression on the spars instead of pulling in a way that'd be more likely to snap them off. Also like that you include a few seconds of that cool tractor thing and chipping etc....helps us new guys get a feel for things when we see various details along with the main thing. Love your videos, the way you talk and explain is perfect for me 👍👌

Nice rigging and explanation.... especially on using the vertical sprouts to keep the pieces from rolling. I've used that technique with great results, but never heard anyone mention it before... you might want to try a rip cut into the shoulder on those big pieces that are you're swinging sideways. More and loner holding bility, and a little smoother travel. The term "target" is an industry misnomer... They are not targets.. they are obstacles. The fact that this misnomer hasn't been corrected in the last 50 years shows how slow this industry is to change. And watch taking those wraps off the GRCS... I've seen them all flip off in a second.

Before the GRCS...I used to consider climbing as two parts, one being canopy climbing the top half while the bottom half is part two where rigging experience plays an important roll. However now with GRCS I've been removing both hard wood and brush at the same time and it's great if you know what your doing. However the mistakes with GRCS can be fatel which keeps me humble using it.

Spider leg is super useful I made a sling with a 15' spare piece of rope and a bowline, just wrap a klemheist around the main rigging line. I love seeing you using that little makita, what do you think about it's weight? Comparable to any other saws you've used?
@Stridertrees3 жыл бұрын
Yep, lots of ways to make that spider leg and it’s real handy. Yes it’s very comparable to other electric saws I’ve used, not quite as good as the best on the market (Husky T545lixp) but better than others and very reasonably priced

Haven’t watched the video but the graphic on the thumbnail shows a very risky situation where the redirect is not above the balance tie, the piece needs to drop not balance if the swing of the rigging brings the piece to the climber.

Why didn't you just cut a smaller piece you could have done that in 3 cuts and not needed the grcs.
@Stridertrees3 жыл бұрын
The angles don’t do it justice, the tie in points were lousy for getting that far out on the tips, and every cut you could make would still make small bits swing down onto the wires. It really wasn’t bad doing the GRCS method, and saved lots of damage to the other trees and stuff under the branches.

cant ever work out why so called climbers cant work out the balance of a 40 ft branch just with one rope ? , ( 39 year Vet ) , and the endless scarfing of branches is so wrong , as soon as a load drops only one ft it has doubled it weight , and off a scraf it loses control very quickly .
