Does being tall help people climb these trees? Would you consider it an advantage

[@mr.benitezhimself]

Joe Dalmolin I’ve met tall, short, heavy, and skinny climbers. From what I’ve seen, people who are 5’2-5’10 are some of the fastest/experienced climbers I’ve ever seen in my life. Including KZbin arborists. I respect the heavier and taller folks that do it too🤘🏽🌴🌴 Good question my friend, thanks for watching

Here in Brownsville Texas Like $100 per palm tree if you have several.. other wise like $150 each.. I saw a video that suggested to hire insured companies and certified climbers because it is a very dangerous job and climbing deaths/accidents are very frequent.. so keep it in mind.

[@beambooi6431]

What is this called? Like the actual husk/beard you are cutting off. I know it’s different than just the husk cuz the husk grows on the tree not out of the palm leaves

[@mr.benitezhimself]

Dead palm fronds ?

[@beambooi6431]

@@mr.benitezhimself exactly

[@MarkH10]

I've seen several 'beards' like that on palms here, in Vegas. I often wonder how they survive the 4th. One bottle rocket into that mess, and it's like an explosion. My old neighborhood had one over the sidewalk, right down to head height it was easily 15 feet of dead fronds. The 17 years over due roof next to it??? Super dry cedar shingles. They have a 20x15 blue tarp as their 'temporary' repair, the same as the first day I saw it, summer of '14.

I don't know what state you're in but in Florida we have to have Street cones to let the traffic know what's going on and keep them out of Harm's Way. And the only other thing that I seen was in conjunction with his Rappel rope he should have been using his lanyard also. God forbid the saw kicks and cuts Rappel rope. Safety is always number one priority. You only fall one time from that height. Other than that nice cut.

[@mr.benitezhimself]

We use cones these days. And yes I 100% agree with you but everyone trims differently. Regardless of safety 🌴

“Hurricane style” was coined by a friend in Florida 😅 ever since he called it “hurricane style” I never went back to “11-1” or “tight trim” lol but you’re right it’s over pruning. But that’s what the client requested

[@Mutatedordinary]

It’s not overgrown, that’s how it’s supposed to look. There’s supposed to be a beard of dead leaves.

[@mr.benitezhimself]

Wyatt Smith Maybe so, but here in Las Vegas clients call me to trim these types of palm trees because of rat/birds nest, scorpions, and all the seed pods falling off and landing on their roof during strong winds. Plus, in my opinion, palm trees are beautiful and really accentuates the property 💯👍🏼

[@Mutatedordinary]

@@mr.benitezhimself ah yes the infestations I get it.

[@kevino1489]

If there are a lot dead fronds on the palm tree the tree cannot photosynthesize correctly plus bats like to roost inthe dead fronds by the. Way its not the beard its the skirt

[@mr.benitezhimself]

y2knoproblem based on your comment, I can tell you’re not very educated when it comes to palm tree trimming. So let me educate you really quick; 1: there’s no amount of dead palm fronds that can do damage to roof or fence because they are so light in weight. 2: green palm fronds could do damage so you control where we land those. 3: the client was well aware of that was going to happen and was perfectly fine with it 4:you climb this tree and do it yourself without having any palm fronds fall on the roof and gate🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️ Thanks for watching my video Watch & let me know what you think again 💯
