1 question that i think would be valid for your assignment is why do sthil chainsaws turn off the wrong way? surely the husky way makes sense and in this industry is it not about time H&S made one or the other change it makes a mockery out of safety features that are completely different
-
totally agree with you there i have seen too many that i would not even wish to use as lowering ropes life is more important than money
-
i do this as well do not see a problem imo only like lowering a saw it is safer to do this occasionally than cut and hold the odd branch although if its going to happen more than twice in a tree i generally ask for the lowering rope and i would only ever lower up to half my bodyweight and if this did cause any wear to my rope i would replace it sooner i generally replace my rope every 12 to 18 months and i know a lot of climbers that are climbing on ropes over 5 years old
-
if your expecting an important phone call put your phone in glove on back of left hand or in helmet but on back of hand seems easier as if you shove it in pocket you end up busting em
-
if you ever get a big tree to do get in a contract climber that does not feel under the weather on that day
-
when spiking up a back up a stem put your climbing line on the outside of your stop so it keeps it out of the way of your spikes or slip it to your harness
-
thats not bad tbh it is not uncommon to get more than that so do not worry too much how stressed out were you or were you quite relaxed i find those are the type of mistakes younger folk that are a bit more stressed and wound up tend to make whereas older folk seem to be a bit more chilled out well done that man are you going to do your 39
