I can easily imagine how much of a relief it would have been to get below that tearout...awful amount of movement when Aug was getting those uppermost pieces off.

Yep....the weight hitting the block was flexing that spar...made me uneasy just watching.
I wondered if the far trees could have been used as two gin poles....a long swing for the piece but it wouldn't have stressed the damaged tree he was in. Put a block in each tree...make a helluva a video. Maybe too much collateral damage to gin poles or trees in the swing arc.

He's getting good at dragging out a 5min vid to 15min.

He is, but it was entertaining.

I believe the longer the engagement of the viewer the more revenue.
I do enjoy his vids though, not knocking him.

You are a dick Murph - we are chatting about people spamming there channels with crappy click bait & then you do exactly that. Haven’t you got a freeway to go play on?

What does it have to do with August?
Gary, just watched your vid in #5050.
Good stuff! I've been doing some of those moves in conjunction with a slant board to stretch the calves and also with reference to the Knees Over Toes Guy.
Fine looking staff in that vid, what is it made out of? As I get more and more into staffs, I'm finding ash is the champion material.

That is bamboo...in the early days of my bando training, we always used wooden staffs. Once I realized I could find bamboo locally I started using it...in 1998 I planted my own bamboo (4 varieties) and I use my homegrown boo now.

No!!!
Wow, awesome stash you have there! That is a rather large quantity of boo, do you use it for other things in addition to your yoga/bando staff?
As noted, I'm a big fan of Ash but Imma give bamboo a try next time I happen across the right stalk which is maybe 1x/year here.

We've used it in Boy scouts before to build towers, bridges, etc. It's a great building material.
What you're looking at there was harvested for use at a martial arts camp... We used it to build target stands, tarp support poles, signage holders, easels for art displays, etc.
I've used it as part of a search and rescue missions, stability for river crossings, etc.
I've also used it before as a boom for rigging to pick up big post where there was no easy breaking point. I think I've posted those pictures before but I'll see if I can dig them out again.

No....from drying out. I do use a belt sander to take down the ridges at the joints, but that one started out green, too.

Nobody had bumped this for almost 3 years. A nice variety of discussion over about 8 years from 2014-2021!

August is a cool cat fo sho , respect his skills
Early on, I watched his vids as they were family friendly, and I would watch them with my girls on my lap or in the room with me, and I knew it was safe for them to view without language etc.
They loved watching it too, and I think it contributed to their enjoyment of climbing trees and learning some knots.
