speedline

You'll need to plan your speedline based on the nature of the tree, site and size of the bits you want to rig. Dont over complicate things, but equally a little time setting up the correct system could save you hours.

 

This is a link to the largest speedline I've set up, but it allowed us to rig out the whole crown in 3 hours.

 

 

cool. how long did the speedline take to set up??

Nice video! Sometimes speedline is the ONLY way, the video shows well the suggestion I would have made which is a pulley on a lowering line, set up just below the top anchor of the speedline. Not only does it allow the descent of the piece to be controlled but it can take part of the shockload of the piece when it is severed and also allows the groundie to get the sling back up to the climber in jig time.
