anchor point positioning

[slack ma girdle]

Where ever you have your secondary/ strop attached there will alway be a small amount of movement that has been generated by the cutting action of the chain. Once you have been climbing a while you will not notice.

what?

if my strop is moving because of the cutting action of the chain on my saw it means i cut my strop!!

maybe you are hoping for a steady postion to cut like you were on the ground but in reality you bounce around, your anchor points may move around and the branch you are cutting is often bouncing as you cut. on the last one you can pull and push the branch with your spare hand in opposition to the motion of the saw to increase cutting speed. Maybe your harness is wrong for you but in all honesty pruning work is rarely achieved in comfort. you'll get used to it.

Have you tried leaning/pushing away from your anchor points so they tighten up and keep you in place?

 

With two anchor points you can usually get a decent comfyish working position.
