Glad to see so much interest in the event, Paul and I put a new climbing event together for this years AA Arb Show and we are bringing the same format to Justin's Arb and Forestry Show in Kent. It has some simularities with the ISA work climb event difficult to run anytree climbing event without some cross over. We are only having two categories Novice and Expert at this location mainly due to time constaints over the two days. Everyone will start form the top of the tree so it doesn't matter how fast or slow you are getting up there. Climbers will then climb around the canopy carrying out a number of tasks tossing a log, walking a limb, lanyarding in and out at each station. It should be like falling off a log for most of you guys. Speed is not actually everything in this event safe climbing tecneque and successfull acomplishment of the tasks will get you points and possibly a win. If you havent got your own kit don't worry we can lend you some new stuff to climb in. If you are entering please make sure your kit is up to scratch as we will be checking it before you have a go so please dont bring your 15 year old harness, blue three strand polyprop climbing rope or two way Krabs or we will be sending you over to see Justin for some new kit : )
