twin ~200ft spars rigged

🔊Fikret Kizilok Güzel Ne Güzel Olmussun
rigged down in millable lengths. this tree's only crime was being born. short sighted people built their house right next to it. when it's growth lifted the foundation they had it removed.
footage from day one. back spar shown rigged to ~50ft (rigged more but not shown), front spar down to ~115ft

Well done mate. Glad the rain held off for you

[@LawrenceSchultz3000]

Much obliged 🙏 yeah we were very glad too, last thing we needed were wet ropes...

[@reubentrapp]

Beautiful work. I've been climbing since 07 I bought your "Schultz Effect" and learned lots and still am. Also 'studied' your "Pfanner man in Cali" video countless times. Great stuff! Thank u! Reuben Vancouver BC

I come back to this video every couple months. Absolute art

[@mitchjones2821]

Killer footage, site, song, editing. Amazing as usual my man. 👍👍 probably felt like a robot half way down, that’s a lot of rinse and repeat!!

[@justinmcnulty601]

That looked like a long day of standing on spurs rigging down wood. Great footage as usual.

[@LawrenceSchultz3000]

long 2 days :p

[@chamness964]

Nice rigging Lawrence. That is some weight you were cutting off there. Amazing!

[@aerialrescuesolutions3277]

Awesome work here bro. Your editing prowess is totally outrageous. I read what you said about double blocking and your 5/8 is not quite long enough, I have a 250' that I've only needed once fully. It gets expensive having 400 and 500 foot ropes just sitting around. Thank you, James Rescue.

[@jmester_atc]

Liked the double tie in. Looks as if it would help to hold you square to the spar. Nice job.

Question So I know in the beginning with rings. 3 rings were to be used for your termination rigging point. Then you were able to use 2 XL rings for the proper bend radius. Noticed a lot of guys using a single ring. To the best of your knowledge, what is the latest. Can a single ring be used?

[@LawrenceSchultz3000]

in tree work we go with a 4:1 bend radius (ex: 1/2 rope should go around a 2" bend). any tighter and the outer fibers see more of the load, weakening the rope. but (if you're using proper hardware) there is no tighter bend than the knot you're making (unless you're using splices) so if you're using a running bowline that is your weakest link, not a single ring. personally, for the most part, i do a single small ring for 1/2" rope. 2 small or one large for 5/8" rope. also one large for 3/4" until the load/ force get near the WLL/ MBS, then i will upgrade to 2 large rings. i also use splices and shackle on my 5/8" and 3/4" ropes cuz i don't want the strength reduction of a knot.

[@hetttreeservice3891]

Hey man Thumbs up! I really hope way day you could show the rigging ring set up. It seems to work excellent for you

[@LawrenceSchultz3000]

this one was pretty straight forward. just using a ring where one might use a block. crank/ lift wood from the neighbor spar into the rigging point. negative the wood in it on the spar it's on, rinse and repeat, many many times...

[@TreeSawyer]

Looks like that job bought a new Hobbs and 500i! Nice work brother. I love rigging reds. They’re an all around fun tree.

[@LawrenceSchultz3000]

ha! i wish, both of those have some time on them. couldn't have done the job without them though

[@TreeSawyer]

@@LawrenceSchultz3000 nice. Well great work brother. I’m in Santa Cruz county California. So redwoods are always on the calendar. Always enjoy seeing other guys work on them.

[@born2climb2]

How much did the heaviest piece weigh that was negative rigged? What size line was used?

[@LawrenceSchultz3000]

approximately 2,500lbs. using Notch's 5/8" which has a WLL of 1,850lbs. i have a splice on there with a shackle so there isn't the massive strength loss due to a knot but i was still pushing the limits with that. I couldn't really upgrade to my 3/4" at that point because it wasn't long enough. I should have double blocked it but my 5/8" wasn't quite long enough for that.

[@thejackel1844]

Keep letting those big pieces run you will see one go right through the roof when your line breaks ...

[@LawrenceSchultz3000]

then run dissipates the peak force the piece can generate. would you rather hold them tight?

[@thejackel1844]

@@LawrenceSchultz3000 Yes, I would, as the rope has an inherent amount of stretch in it, let the tree / stem absorb the impact, not the rigging...

[@LawrenceSchultz3000]

the ropes and slings have known MBS/ WLL values to work with. the tree/ stem does not. i know how much weight/ force my rigging can take. how much can your trees/ stems take?

[@thejackel1844]

@@LawrenceSchultz3000 Every situation is different, "bombing" large pieces with the rigging to absorb ALL of the shock load is NEVER a good idea, End of story !...
