Has anyone had any experience with their largest chipper CRC500H I believe it’s named

Going to swap the current STIHL pole saw we’ve had for years out for something newer. Heard the battery ones are quite up to scratch. Want one with a good reach though nonetheless. Cheers

Looking into a pair of Delimbers next. Heard they’re pretty comfy and good for climbing but what’s with the laces?

Tried a pair of these on in store felt pretty good. Can anyone vouch for their long term comfort, any good with spikes? Any good for hiking as well- I know they’re stiff and a bit heavy Cheers

Wanting (desperately needing) a new harness. Been down the honey bros in Guildford few weeks ago but didn’t have any Tree Austria’s ready for me to try. Just come back from the new forest on a road trip family holiday and dropped in to their store and again didn’t have any. Tried the notch catalyst which was comfy, then a DMM which was uncomfortable and 500 quid. Climbed off a treehog harness for a couple years then my current Skylotec which is nice but old as hell. Anyone have experience with the TreeAustria? Cheers

When you say truck, do you mean pick up trucks like Hilux ?

How’d you do a 1/4” pitch setup? can you tune the 362?

Thinking of replacing my 201TC with something new, and the echo’s have been top on my list as I’ve heard they’re super lightweight and can be tuned to be proper screamers. there’s a CS2511 and a CS362, has anyone used either of these and can confirm if they’re good for medium tree take downs etc? Or any other recommendations? Cheers

That’s some serious work man good on you: might give that a go if I’m ever in a similar situation

On an ash tree earlier today, reduction. One limb was spread quite long and up at a real sh!t angle. And being ash it’s not the grippiest tree (not tryna make excuses) Obviously I done the donkey ride like usual- nuts squashed successfully. I had to cut it where I could in the end but my question is, is there any other methods of getting across awkward limbs? cheers

Both in real world and in a spiking rescue assessment (cs38) I understand it’s beneficial to have a false anchor. I personally have always just done spiking jobs with just a lanyard, but if a it’s an easily tied anchor I will start to use, and also I will need to do it for my cs38. Anyone could explain what a belay system involves as well? Cheers

Thanks for that mate. Could a lanyard not count as a secondary line? Or it has to be 2 full blown main lines? If so, surely it’s allowed to ascend the tree on one line, and then tie in your second whilst up there? Cheers tho mate

Hi people. I’m used to climbing MRS no SRT experience whatsoever. And always using one main line and a lanyard. also I’ve never used a cambium saver. I’m going for my 38 soon and just want to know exactly what to expect. Will I be expected to rescue a climber using 2 lines? Will I be expected to use a cambium saver for each line? How much time do they allow you to get your line into the tree. And finally high up the tree will the rescue dummy be situated? I’ve also heard of people using spikes on their CS38. If anyone could let me know that’d be awesome. Cheers
