Being suspended & weighted on your chest ascender in plumb line counts as a full point of connection, NOT a half. Same goes for the handle ascender.
Correction: When pushing the chest ascender down to make small descents, I should have routed the rope off to my left side to make for a straighter rope path, which would help the sharp teeth keep clear from snagging on the rope.

Great video. A hack that I use to keep the rope from coming up with the chest croll is to attach the rope bag a couple of inches above the ground to the bottom of the main line.

I’m sure you have different rules and regulations. As an arborist we have our ways. Definitely check your code. For me I have a mini carabiner that connects to my chest straps to capture my progress. It hooks to my ascending device. There are many types. Normally small climbs I just use a foot ascender. For larger climbs I use a knee ascender as well. I always like mixing and matching ideas to make everything easier and safer. Stay safe and thank you for what you do day in and out. I hope to never see you where I’m working lol 😂!

Thanks! I agree to an extent. Definitely differing methods, techniques, & equipment.... but we're all in the same wheelhouse when it comes to the fundamental principles. Regardless of if we're following ANSI/ISA Z133, ANSI/ASSP Z359, SPRAT, ANSI/NFPA, etc.... we all fall under the OSHA umbrella... unless we're doing mountain/swiftwater rescue or something like that out in the natural elements.
