40 meter Cedar removal utilizing as zip line.

[Jake Andrews]

We did this job just before Christmas. The house is around 200 years old and underneath the tree is a 2 meter high wall dating back to the same era, this is why we utilised a zip line. Hope you enjoy.

Very nice, luxury having two climbers up there, doesn't look like Oz.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Sweet. Nice editing!

 

[stig]

Yep.
Editing the two different climber's view of it together really makes it special.

 

[Jake Andrews]

Ahhhhhhhh you noticed the non OZ look. I moved back to the UK in July and have started subbing myself out. 2 climbers was a massive luxury, because we both use srt we had one slinging who was redirected away from the trunk. The other climber stayed close to the trunk and did the cutting. The top was done with 2 zip lines alternating between climbers.

One day all the people who've worked in different countries will list the differences they've noticed in tree work, attitudes etc.

I'll start a thread.

 

[Jake Andrews]

That's a great idea Mick

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Again cool with the two climbers perspective

Good stuff, I noticed the "shaky hands" motion in the tree, then the bad spot shown at the end explained why.

 

[Jed]

That was so cool, Jake. You men are brave. That pig looked messed-up.

 

[Jake Andrews]

It was in a sorry state alright Jed. As you can see from the vid, it had lost around half of its crown during a storm but the wound was only 8metres from the ground. It was nice having 2 climbers and pushing each other. Also SENA headsets really paid off on this job for communication.
