My complex has an unusual amount of grass. It's a very old plot and it's probably 3 acres. Anything that isn't building or walkway is grass with a lot of older growth trees.
A large majority of homes in Scottsdale, or Phoenix, that aren't a golf course, will have what's known as "desert-scape"...
Here's a great video where I get attacked by a sprinkler system at the very end. (lots of swearing). It's only 5 minutes long. I use two retrievable pulley savers and one rope to create an SRS with canopy anchor and MRS using hitch climber setup which gets converted into a V-RIg once I'm at the...
I'm fully aware of that. I explicitly state in my video, and in my numerous disclaimers (both on-screen and in the description/comments) that, to the best of my knowledge, I'm the only person that I have seen -- personally -- make any content about this method, and that I couldn't find anything...
Short for my Rope Runner hack...
One commenter on my long form video claimed this had been around for awhile and yet another claims thatt "this was discussed and demonstrated at Arborist a few weeks ago." So, perhaps this confirms the safeness of this method to a greater extend. It's hard to...
I haven't posted this yet (I will in a few days), but it's my video all about my solution for the Rope Runner (Pro) vulnerability, where it cannot be used in either a 2:1 or 3:1 configuration without the risk of it potentially collapsing, causing a climber to either lose briefly lose control or...
Here is my latest videos published to my channel for a new slipped hitch that myself and another YouTuber conceptualized and then came up with a few possible applications for it. It can be used as a loop knot, but it works better as a hitch since it gets weakened a bit by ring loading.
I...
Just got a $265 payment from YouTube for allowing ads over the last two months. I'm on track to hit $300 or more in the next two month period. Stoked. Trying to decide how to best spend the money. Unfortunately, some of it has to go towards me simply surviving, which, in turn, allows for the...
I just posted new content about the Spanish bowline! One is a Short and the other is a demo of TWO separate tying methods, and a deep dive discussion! Posted the long form yesterday and the short form just a moment ago!
One tying method requires access to the ends (as shown in Short form) and...
I know I'm sometimes the forum's biggest dick head, but thanks for watching my videos, guys and gals! It's nice to see a decent amount of viewership from the forum.
I'm doing my best to chill and to improve my YouTube skills and abilities. Nice to get support from the home team (Tree House).
@Stelzer To answer your question, the vast majority of my hitches are intended for use by tree climbers and arborists. I am a recreational tree climber.
Firstly, thanks for reaching out and for your concern and interest!
Almost ALL of my hitches have gone through proper R&D (research and development). I would never post anything to my channel that isn't truly life supporting.
As someone who has created and developed over 85+ friction hitches...
I did a clap early in the short form. I displayed the hitch in the first few seconds and then clapped to transition to the tying method. Best viewed on YouTube shorts. I know you don't have that, @lxskllr.
Glad you like it. It's an underused transition on YouTube, so I'm glad you're learning to...
I did a collaboration with an arborist named Brian McGovern of Wood Pecker Arborist!
He created a friction hitch he calls the McGovern 3.0, which is his third iteration of his wrench-less friction hitch! Yes, it supposedly works without a rope wrench, but, just as any hitch, performs even...
Having some technical difficulties with this video, which is not sending out notifications to my subscribers and doesn't seem to be gaining any new views. It's also out of sequence, showing it posted over a month ago, despite just posting it moments ago today.
Oh well. I hope this video starts...
Time lapse of the entire process I go through every time I test a new friction hitch, which usually take anywhere between 20-30 minutes. The video shows one of the days where I was struggling a little bit, which is sort of nice, because it makes everything look very realistic. You can view...
