Nice vid, looked like a real smooth operation and professional operation.

Can't believe that the thread has turned into a discussion about thumbs though jeez.

Really good to watch, and very competant as a first attempt. All looked very controlled.

 

Like the massive heap of kids toys in the corner. But they werent as tidy as that when you first got there! Lol.

:001_cool:General consensus - THUMBS UP!

 

As opposed to thumbs wrapped securely round the handles!! :sneaky2:

 

Cheers, glad it wasn't slated and glad it wasn't boring. It's difficult when editing to decide how much of each bit to keep.

Looking forward to doing the next one now.

Loved the video.

 

Not matter what everyone says about your thumbs, I bet we've all done it (I'm not saying its right).

 

Are you using a Lockjack with a loop sling to extend it away from you?

Yes it's just a sling. I love it. You can just pull whole arm loads of rope through when ascending and get up pretty quick and easy. For branch walking it's sometimes easier to clip direct to lockjack so it's easily in reach.
