Watching tree and limb removal with a crane is entertaining but watching a climber with rope skills amazes the not so educated climbers like myself. I like the fact that you explain what your doing and why.

Awesome video, really love how you show the problems that happen in "real life in the field" , and don't edit them out, that's how people learn and really appreciate how you do things, helps for learning, thank you so much and GOD bless you 🙏 Patrick!!

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.

Climbing can be so frustrating sometimes, when you plan over and over in your mind something is going to work perfect then it all goes south. Then the next day rolls around and you hit one out of the park. That's what makes tree climbing so rewarding!

Bless you Patrick! I love your videos for your clarity of expression, passion for improvement, striving for efficacy, attention to safety, and willingness to not portray yourself as infallible! Well done for another fine performance, and a well mannered finish with having to climb again to retrieve your line after all the work of the day

@robertenglaish4093 2 года назад

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!

@SpencerA99 2 года назад

What's the point of the half hitch before the daisy chain knot? So it doesn't slide around? Stability?

@532woodchuck 2 года назад

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.

@Darryl_Racine 2 года назад

Most excellent !

@jeffcoon7160 2 года назад

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)

@alexworks9659 2 года назад

I’ve been playing with Dmm thimbles and they have a 12mm thimble that 1/2” T Rex. Though it’s not rated like a ring, it may work for rigging. Im actually playing with the thimble and a sample of 3/8” T Rex as short dead eye sling.

@dprevish100 2 года назад

Brilliant idea of the tail on that daisychain hitch/Siberian hitch. I’m still thinking about the possibilities it! It’s funny I’ve switched over that and my groundies love me…bowlines are so hard to figure out to untie..right?!🙄😁

@spelunkerd 2 года назад

I sure like your long tail option for the snap cut. Rather than waste time on a second line, for light wood you settle the swing down and then easily lower.

@jacobwilson3316 2 года назад

@waynegriswold8953 2 года назад

im trying to learning when is it okay to use gaffs? like when a tree has really thick bark? or is it okay when its dormant? i have only used them in palm trees but i dont mess with palms anymore. they are gross, dirty and all types of bugs and critters live in them. plus they are just too skinny and sway more than i care for. i dont want to put any unnecessary wounds in the trees if its going to hurt the tree. i love your videos and i always learn so much from watching them. i will try to send some warm weather and LOVE from Tucson, AZ.

@TreeMuggs_PatrickM 2 года назад

Gaffs for removals, or partial removals (like this vid), or trimming on crappy weed trees..... 😏

@waynegriswold8953 2 года назад

Spikes are for removals, or in an emergency rescue situation, and if the portion your working on is being removed.

I'm that guy that just Burns bark all the time natural crotching everything. Probably not great for the tree and you know it's got lots of other disadvantages, but I always get my rope back😎

Curious as to why you use Gaffs for pruning? Are they not damaging the tree and causing unnecessary harm?

He's only spiking the part he removed. That's why he didn't have them on when he was setting up his rigging.

I cringed when I saw what union you choose. It looked a bit too narrow for the retrievable ring. Love the idea though and long tail to control swing. BTW, how long did that take you from moment you got there till packing up the trucks?

@andrehak 2 года назад

@45:14 curious of your thought process on why to make this diagonal bore cut. To prevent back barring, maybe? Splendid job, might I add what an excellent ground crew. Running the ropes super smooth. Overall superb to watch, thank you and love from over the pond. Would love your thoughts on my video's, too.

@johngiannetti. 2 года назад

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.
