Atree; the slings are just what i always use, they grip really well and on normal trees I carry four or five and send more than one branch down at a time, also you can be putting the next slings on while the groundies deal with the last lot. On this tree the branches were all locked together so i took them one at a time. Its also good if you have a tight drop zone as a large branch system can be broken up and lowered as one but it takes up less space on the ground. yeah, each to there own and situation i suppose, could you also use a short peice of lowering rope for attaching pulley for lowering point? or would that be to weak ie lowering wood of itself?(sorry for all the questions just starting doing doing larger removals/rigging
-
nice vid,Is it easier using slings then attcahing them to the lowering rope?i used to do that but now i just use the lowering rope and big biner attached to the branch what are the pro's and cons?
