Treecycle I meantioned a longer bar being more comfortable on flat ground so you don't have to bend over so much. Again I'd say no matter the slope if you're double cutting often it's time to move up in bar length. Imo.

Upon re-looking at the pics those trees look pretty small so maybe the short bar works fine in that situation. And no offense is meant but it all just looks so different to me as that's not quite how we log out here. Those bars would be slow in my woods.
Those to me look to be a sixteen and a eighteen inch bar. I'm guessing alot of those trees needed to be double cut and that is slower than having a 24"er on there and just laying 'em down imo.
I don't see the point of it myself, unless it was to practice for giant trees where you'd have to double cut or whatever. Any performance gain from using the shorter bar is going to be far outweighed by the extra screwing around to actually fell with it. I'm not into using a longer bar then...
