2 climbers?

[Pete Mctree]

My vote is either insanity or the guy's are wanting to hold hands too much:001_tongue:

 

I can't see this system as either productive or safe. If the guy at the top of the tree were to gaff out he would take the other with him. Thoughts?

My thoughts when doing this were for training .Two pros in the tree that have done this many times.Only when you know the other climber can you do this job faster ans safer than others.

Well I guess you dont get the $35 an hour and ceus I provide then right?

This video was a presentation of an isa workshop hosted by myself Tom Dunlap and Robert Phillips.... cutting edge stuff.If a climber under my employ says he dosent want anyone in "his " tree ... well its down the road he goes.

Steve The video tells most of it.The two climbers had maybe 10 webbing slings between them and could set them for the same pulley from different sides of the tree.Two climbers cutting one at a time form either side of the tree.When the first climber cut the lower branches and they hit the pulley they it was time for the other climber to cut his share of branches.The speedline was full and the groundmen let it go all at once.The two were always angled away from the swing of the branches when cut, Bottom climber cut first.
