My nephew did that first time I saw him climb after college, swimming alongside an oak branch 12‘ diameter you could hang a car off.
Yes it works, but on a daily basis on multiple branches it’s exhausting.
In your scenario I don’t doubt it was the best/safest method
I always say ‘if you can...
Well, yes.
But when you fall off walking backwards (with tension on the rope) there’s a tendancy to try and right yourself, in doing that you fall sideways and spiral out of control.
I was looking at the other thread and not understanding a thing about 3 in 1s for branch walking redirects and all that.
So I’ll explain how I do it how I get out and how I get back.
If I have a reasonably long walk out, I never or almost never do that walking backwards letting the rope out...
