Tree felling vids

Those mutha fukkin' limbs that can fly all over...even the smartest, most careful faller can get bit.

Agreed, he seemed to know the protocol, just got unlucky.

 

[Burnham]

I've said this before...put you head in a lion's mouth enough times, your turn will eventually roll around, odds are. You have to behave on every single fell/top/buck like this is that time. That way you have a bit of a chance that the mitigations you took help you survive the unlucky universe.

Seemed like he was having trouble going uphill over limbs carrying the saw. I think a smidge more cleanup and leave the saw.

It's also not clearly evident why he was felling uphill which brings in another element of risk in the falling operation.

Hard to run while dragging a boat anchor. Makes it feel like you ran 100ft, but only made it 10.

Live unprotected electric cables btw.

 

[Burnham]

Frightenedly awesome .

That’s a bit high level- face after back cut. And using a machete/cleaver?!?

 

[CurSedVoyce]

And people complain about standing in spurs. Ha!

It’s crazy how the innernets full of crazy stuff like this but it’s stuff you’d barely believe is possible if you didn’t actually see it in HD vid

Nice page!

 

[cory]

This one should be food for thought. The commenters are impressed. Your thoughts?

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Not a fan. Triangle works just as well. Can still have tons of fibre pull past that curf cut on the sides. Tear out no bueno.bueno.Worked fine that time on that species. Alls well that lands well.

I would go with no face undercut and matching top cut to make it lay flat, preferably with a saw bigger than 201.
