Probably should start a thread. Loop runners. Lots of loop runners all different sizes. Screw gate biners. Z rig for tensioning. Floating anchor sometimes for positioning the LZ. SO many little tricks... I'll use a pulley when they get heavy as you do, and control with a line. I don't have a...

Before the Wraptor an on certain trees, I will do what Scott pointed out. Just put a biner on the end of the line in the tree and cinch a loop runner or sling on a branch/leader or trunk. Then hook the limbs that need the ride down. On that tree I had the running bowline further up the tree...

Exactly what we did Scott. Almost like a redirect. You use the loop runner and biner to hold the line closer or above to the work, usually on the branch you are going to cut last, or to the trunk. ;) I just tied it off higher up the tree :) We're on the same page :)

Sure beats hauling all the stuff up a rope ;) Block, loop runners, rigging line, dead eye, steel biners, saw.......... Only thing I had to pull back up to me until I needed a larger saw were the biners and loop runners :D

True. That one I just Wraptored up. Left all the rigging for the stem up near the top and my TIP and then went back down and worked the tree. SO much better than securing it over and over again while working up.

Basic Idea here Sean only with out the lift this time. I just had it tied in higher and could secure it further down where I was working off the trunk or adjacent limb and get 2-4 cuts just by Rob taking in the slack with the z rig.

We use a z rig with a redirect usually to tension the line. Loop runners could easily be replaced with pieces of rope and knots. We use steel screw gates on the line and let em run for the most part. You just let the z rig out and time your landing. Now if you have to worry about the hit of the...

Feel the same way Jack. Luckily I get to use it a lot since CDF dictates roof clearances for fire and HO's try to keep all their trees over their houses :D

Willie did one. I would like to try it as well... <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/pq5S4zbo9Dg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Feel kind of the same way about the top Jack.
