Large Beech Dismantle Day 1 Speedlining

This is the way that i tension the line as it gives good control over the line. and yes i know the capstan is backwards its just where it has turned when its been let go !

 

Well spotted Darrin! it was a temporary back up rope bridge running along side a worn one while waiting for the new one to arrive! the new swivel that i use seems to wear out the bridge a bit too quick.

 

it took a day and a half. a day for the top and half for the stem.

Nice dual aspect on the filming

 

Ziplining looked smooth.

 

Always appreciate hearing why a tree of this size and stature is removed, was there any consideration given for reduction to manage the structural issues?

Was a Shame to take it down but there was a lot of decay on the main stem about half way up where water was collecting in a cavity so a reduction would not of solved that issue unfortunately.

Also the children's rooms were on that side of the house so you can understand the concern.
