Had to watch that after Thunderstuck was mentioned. Thought the picture was a bit fuzzy..........oh no, sorry, just me headbanging.

Great video. Wonderful scenery.

Thanks a lot, glad you like.

 

Gotta keep feeding the forum. If you've never started a thread, or can't be arrsed lately, then you should.

 

The ground anchor was just 4 heavy logs with a big choker wrapped around....and a big 3t hook for friction. No MA, just a big strong kiwi guy to tension it up.

 

Tree wasn't that big really, around about 100ft I'd say. Thats a pretty accurate measurement though....not like some of the fantastic exaggerations that get added to many tree stories on the net.

 

Heard the AC/DC track on the radio the other day, reminded me of our kid. Thought it was pretty f-ing cool, though might be too BiG for just a tree video....but seemed to fit ok.

 

The flip-line is 5/8, or 16mm. 15ft long I think. The hitch cord is 3/8 tennex. Thanks again

another cool vid by RCO but you must be getting pretty bored of Fir's and removing them by now ay? i had similar thing in Ozzie with Big Euc's, took its toll on me and moved back to Europe for Pruning now, do 80% pruning and rest is crane removals, alas i am missing rigging abit now.

 

its a fine balance ay. i found Norway and Sweden to have the balance perfect but then the winter is too cold.

Beautiful day and location. I used a flexi tripod to mount the camera. Didn't slow things up much....just had to remember to hit the stop button. Thanks

 

Watch in HD. Blocked in Germany, sorry.
