S'ok Jamie, I dont suppose many groundies subscribe to forums anyway. I mean it's only a job anyway, why spend all night talking about trees, rakes, dragging brush etc. is the groundies only escape!

Just had a thought re-reading thru this thread, CLIMBERS be aware, especially on bright, sunny days this time of year, that the sun is lower in the sky! Hand signals are fine IF you can be seen, but staring up at a tree trying to decipher the smallest detail against a bright ball of fire is very difficult, especially in a hurry, so dont assume that the groundies can see what you mean, and groundies, if you cant see, make sure you understand the climber, DONT guess.

also make sure they know what you want as a climber, no good saying ''yeah ok'' and being clueless as to whats gonna happen!!! ive known that to happen a few times!!

Yea we have all had these, was why I gave up subbing, you never know who you have got on the gound. Your life is in thier hands.

 

To snap the dead eye thou.. how big was the section?

 

Ps looks like a neat job half way through good work.

not that big really considering it as the very top and i was a little worried about the house roof and the man on the rope:asshole2:

i should of explained a little more to him even tho he works every day with us!!

cos i sub alot i've developed a cool technique for all groundsmen , for the fantastic ones who unload a hobs, various pullys and a couple of beefy looking 50mtr ropes, good comunication and teemwork. for guys who haven't got good gear, just an old climbing rope its a case of run round the tree like my arse is on fire handballing everything down. the latter is the best fun and they don't have much cutting to do either.
