mark, note at the very end of the video when the camera pans onto the trunk, you can see how the fibres have held at the buttreeses

careful mr humphries, you are breaching the realms of brown nosing and treading very dangerously into brown lipping territory!

if im at the very tip of a poplar or something and a little unhappy about being there i'll knock the top off first to make it a little more stable. mark, beech are best felled low, if you leave the hinge at a point with a good buttress root you can pretty much hold the tree in any direction.

designer stubble mate haha

i think it probably had ustulina also. the tree next door to it that was previously felled certainly did

they are round about the £55 mark i think. tree was dying back heavily, was basically at the end of its life.

i havent climbed in the solomons, but do own a pair of scarpa. to be honest i havent climbed in them a great deal but i did opt for them during the summer when i had to re-reduce some very skinny whippy limes. they made the job so much easier just being able to get a foot grip in the tiniest little knobbles in the trunk. go to any of the isa climbing comps, and you'll be hard pushed to find someone not wearing a pair, i think that says a lot.
