71 meter tree removal

So it was 71 meters to the chipper. Half way thru this job I put on the camera.

 

Light duty rigging, hot day, spiders, everyday tree work.

nice one Ben, almost stopped watching then Daft Punk came on a saved the vid, gimmie me music over the sound of a saw anyday, liked the Locust swings the best (1st biggish one was well judged by you and the ropeman).

 

Looked like a tight spot for the bucket truck and the ground crew.

Good work Ben, tight working space. Maybe you should have called the video "big wood, tight gap"?

Nice

 

Disappointed by ironic title ...but some fancy rigging goin on there..tidy work

[mistahbenn]

We are always working in tight spaces... Going as big as I can is deffo a time saver, and makes for better rigging. Angles, mid tying, slow motion detachment all add up to a good team. I gotta say Cosby is one hella ropeman.

don't stop the vids.....I class myself as a pretty accomplished climber & all rounder.....but can still learn things new by watching other people,s work.
