Recently, I’ve been noticing when up a tree that when using outboard step cuts when the branch is snapping off, it snatches my saw. So my questions are what is going on here and when should I step cut and when should I put a standard face cut in?

(Putting this in the Training section as I'm new to all this - please move if it's in the wrong place) Came home last night to find an ash in this state. No wind, no lightening. Guessing dieback? (never been close to a tree with dieback before). Two split branches. I wouldn't climb this (and my course isn't for a few weeks anyway); any thoughts on the best approach to dropping this? Power cable is some way off, ash at top of hill. Was thinking of dropping it across the slope to the left as there is plenty of room and the hanging branch is on that side anyway.

Hi, I am posting this on behalf of a group of young engineers. We are we are working a design of a new SRT ascending/descending friction device that can be certified by CE. Our aim is to get the certification as well as to make the climbing process as comfortable as possible. Therefore, we would love to hear from real tree surgeons about what would they want this device to do to make their job easier. So we can have an idea about what would be more important to consider while designing this new device. If you can complete the survey bellow we would very appreciate it. https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/DV3RJHG Thank you for your time.
