Would you climb this ?

Mabi it's just I'm a chicken then but hey ho 😄

We all say 'If it survived the storm then it should be OK with just a climbers weight'

 

As someone once said 'You can say that about any tree right up to the moment it fails'.

 

It's your neck up there, do it as safely/riskily? as you feel comfy - make sure you are there to fight another day.

[Mark Bolam]

To be honest I'm kind of done risking my neck for people who have pretty much put themselves in this position.

I might still climb it, like, because I'm greedy and the MEWP cash would keep my wife in shoes for a month.

All good stuff but why do people use the word "comfortable" all the time.

 

It's not a word that ever comes to mind when I'm up there.

I'd probably go up it but probably wouldn't enjoy it all that much!

[Tree Tastic Care]

The pics aren't the best to show the decking /shed/house next door so parts of it have got to be rigged and I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it with the state of the bass . Hence the boom option

[skyhuck]

"boom":confused1: is this explosive? to bring it down in a cloud of splinters and dust, reducing the risk of damage???

I would probably climb it, if it stayed up yesterday then it can't be too bad.

If you need to rig it do it in smaller bits. But that's just my opinion

2nd that...dont think ive ever been comfortable up a tree.

I still go out and do it most days though.

As for the tree,its up to you mate,if the cash is there for a mewp then thats the way to go

Use ratchet straps in places for a strategic confidence booster. In reality they probably do nothing to make the tree any safer but it does wonders for your confidence.
