As soon as you put Class A's on and climb a tree with a chainsaw you will get this over whelming desire to force the saw into the back of you leg.

 

Don't do that it will really hurt.

 

I've not worn Class C for years.

 

My avatar picture? Class A's.

Type A's for years. As has been said before adopting a good work position & a well thought about risk assessment should negate most problems.

 

I also feel that heat fatigue on banging hot days will more likely take it's toll on me if I was wearing class c's.

I have heard of one accident guy was cutting saw kicked into is right leg hit the front protection them drove the saw into the back of his unprotected left leg but could be avoided by better work positioning

As few people said, its all about positioning....
