Constructive criticism is stop the sawing of the saw!

 

It does not make the saw cut faster and it will increase the chance of kickback/follow through dramatically.

 

Plus its painful to watch :)

 

Looks like you did a good job, rigging into the back of the truck is bliss.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'll sometimes do it if I feel the kerf is going to close on the saw. You can feel it pinching the bar better and pull the saw out better than if you're dogged in.

Is that the new 462 you’re using?
I just picked one up today.
Going to Christen it tomorrow, can’t wait.
Like others have said, smooth rope work. [emoji106]

Ms 441. Good saw in my eyes especially in tree as it’s not to heavy and can pull a 25” bar no dramas.
Can’t say I’ve used a 462 but I’ve heard good things!
Yeah worked with the rope guy for 5 years so pretty In tune with each other but sadly it’s his last week next week and pursuing a new career

Although I can see your point, Tbh I've never really thought about it as in those situations (aerial rather than ground work) the bar being trapped isn't a bad thing imo, means you've gone in too far, stops you cutting more of the hinge and stops the limb moving in the wrong direction.
