who is using these? I bought mine a few weeks back after seeing some in action. its already proved invaluble for pointing things out to customers that you'd otherwise spend forever trying to explain. and also they're dammed good fun! few pics, one reflected off my truck, one just shooting into the sky, and the one last one is reflecting off a tree approx 400 meters away. this ones a 100mh model

i was reading an interesting thread at www.treebuzz.com that discussed using srt to gain a higher anchor point where the anchor point was questionable. run the srt line through a sling at a safe point on the trunk so if the highest anchor point fails you'll only fall to the next safety, much like lead climbing with quickdraws i suppose, or at least this is how i understood it. meanwhile you're working Ddrt off of the srt.

that pic was taken by a professional photograher. basically around about that time the company i was working for was having a brochure made up. there was a photographer coming out random days over the course of a few weeks, basically whenever he was in the area, taking photos. this particular job we had a platform on as the tree was very dead and parts were over a road so it made sense. as we were overmanned in the ground i got into the tree and starting knocking out some of the easier half of the tree whilst the photographer was in the bucket above me with the other cutter.

that was a pff the shelf length split tail, pleated the end to take up the extra.....looking back ive no idea why i didnt just cut it to length
