  1. Or even just scarpa's with a steel toe then you would be sorted.....if your in NZ
  2. Hey steve,Been thinking of getting this set-up,was just wondering,Can you use a left and right pantin,or just a right pantin with right modified pantin or left??
  3. Will be keen for the scottish open if im about,How do you go about entering a isa comp? Have done a few nz regionals,Wont have my own kit tho might borrow some.
  4. Importing can be pricey to,def bring it with you.BUt when you start working you just gotta think $ not pounds
  5. Is there a time limit? for the work climb,the one i compete in (nz regional) has a time of 5mins and you start at the top.
  6. Cool,looked a big work climb or is that normal in the uk?? That zipline looked fun and something different for a work climb.
  7. Contact treetools.co.nz there in auckland but deliver nationwide promtly ($11.40 per meter)
  8. I found that nptc's meaning nothing here,Pick up a chainsaw and go to work (just my experince) As said above buy your gear from the uk (ie boots/trousers) as there very expensive here. Best do your research before you come.
  9. Highly recommend clarks in Dumfries (bit of a drive) or gustharts in the borders somewhere.
  10. Gutted indeed.Stupid mistakes always happen when your rushing to finish a job.
  11. Hahahahaha bugger chipping all that with your wee pencil sharpner
  12. That mac is funny how it got ring barked and it didnt do anything to the tree,nicest mac ive seen tho.
  13. Took a large leader of this gum 2day,Lift up off neighbours thin/dead wood.Bit stressful,rigging wasnt going right. Think they are thinking about removing the large blue gum in the back,which is about 2-3 times the size of the one we worked on.
  14. Are you wanting to see NZ tree work pics or something?
  15. I have a pair of them,only worn them a couple of times but feel really light which is good when im climbing,Back to my stretch airs now tho cos its getting cold.
  16. Was going to say the very same thing mark,Noithing gay about it. I "slip,slap, slop" almost everytime the sun comes out for the same thing treeson said. You guys would be better off with buying a raincoat anyway..........
  17. SunRISE over sea (monday morning)
  18. Sunset over christchurch/southern alps
  19. Nice shape arborist,You took a lot of that!
  20. Nice work tom, Just wondering,what did you want the tree to regenerate with epicormic growth if you left stubs??
