solo rigging

Many an occasion its just not practical to rig trees conventional style, when they are just being pruned. Like - poor communication or visibility; no ground-workers; limbs too light v weight of the rigging line; risk of damage to foliage being retained down below; snagging, and so on.

 

a useful technique for rigging small to medium sized limbs through the canopy of a tree.

 

One man operation being the point.

 

The wet weather made it hard to make a good vid, not that it could ever be exciting to watch anyway, but you get the point. Once in the flow it actually works pretty well.

Thanks.

Was that a takedown Reg?

Did look pretty wet, your keks are soaked!

Useful tip, thanks.

 

Are you serious ? Mate, do you think I would messing about about like that on a removal ?

 

It's all in the opening post, Mark.

 

Simply a way of safely hanging limbs by your self as opposed to cut and hold. Independent. hands free. Swings towards the rigging point. Good for pruning, you just set your line and its there if you need it. If not then, (bad word) it.

Thank God for that, thought I'd gone mental, or you'd gone soft!
