Yes I did leave the climbing rope up. The site was in a safe secure place. I wouldn't do that in a public place. Thanks for your comment.

@@totaratree99 thanks mate. Learn a lot from your videos. Keep it up & climb safe.

@@user-pk3lp2qb7b Thanks heaps :)

Thanks for watching. Cheers.

Thanks for saying.

Yes thanks. Too many to count.

Yes if had been a smaller stem the block may have been close. Thanks 👍.

Yes. Always thankful for the tree :)

@@totaratree99 It was at the end, you were thanking everyone, so I just wanted to show my appreciation for the unsung hero. Nice tutorial. It's a lot to grasp because you make it look easy. Confidence and trust so far with gear are just as hard as the physical mechanics. I thought it was really nice to see you with a Prusik and hitch climber and doing this professionally without any gadgetry, that's kinda where I'm at in my gear investment so now I don't feel like I need fancy stuff, just way more practice. I wish I started sooner. Take care.

@@ravenshield7823 Thanks mate. Yes you can climb well without all the gadgets. Keep practicing that is the main thing. Cheers for your comments.

I think so too! Very versatile.

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks.

Thanks. You have to volunteer or compete at a NZARB tree climbing comp. Different shirts for each year. I have a bit of a collection 😆.

I see I have a long way to go. Thank you so much!

@@1530786 Anyone can volunteer at a local competition. Thanks for your comments.

Oh very difficult question. For the safest I would go for the ball lock, but they don't have an oval shaped one so I'd have to get some of the dmm ones too.

You need a second system for example a lanyard. I think this is explained in my video Basic Tree Climbing 01. Thanks for your questions. Happy if you have others. Cheers 👍

Either tie the bowline directly to your front harness attachment point or use a carabiner to attach.

Hi. The double braid rope is semi-dynamic. It is called "bluemoon". An arborist rope. different characteristics from a rock climbing rope.

Yes. It was a while ago but a big job for the students.

Yes, thank you

Thank you very much! See what I can do:)

I asked for this video at the start of level 3, godspeed brothers

I concur William, comparison videos showing the different possible applications would be extremely educational.

Thanks for that. Appreciate it.

Glad you like them! Thanks for your comment, i appreciate it.

Biggest difference is that totara is a conifer so has little cones. Manuka and kanuka have flowers. Thanks for asking.

Glad you think so!

My class used your videos for identification of native trees so yeah amazing video might go give the rest a watch too ;)

Glad to hear they are useful. What are you studying? Cheers@@tristan8864

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks so much :)

Many thanks!

Thanks for that big D. stay safe.

Thanks 👍

Glad it was helpful! Thanks.

Yep sure can. Need to check it after each climb though.

Sounds good. I'll have a look. Cheers 👍

Thanks for your encouragement. Cheers.

Thanks for watching!

Good questions thanks. The rope was 20mm (3/4 inch) and it broke at the half hitch. Maybe if we had a 25mm we would have been OK.

Your self-evaluation at the end of the video was great. Thanks for revealing your thoughts. Smaller piece, second rope or adding a second block are all great suggestions. I'm intrigued with the idea of the second block. It would only work if the block were attached to the piece with something larger than 20mm. That's the one piece of rope that would still have the full force on it.

Thanks. Yes the second rope and block was just a thought. Two blocks with two separate ropes. To work well both ropes would have to receive load at the same moment otherwise one would only be a backup to the other, which might have saved it. Might try this one day but the risk is the ropes twisting and then snagging.

Thanks 👍

Thanks. Appreciate your comment.

LOL!

Noted!

You are very welcome. Thanks for watching.

Sometimes see the pests. They are not usually aggressive but run away.

Thanks heaps. Best regards to you too.

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks 👍

Thanks for that. Stay safe. Cheers 👍

Yes. Not widely known.

Hi. The beal ropes are good. Make sure it is designed for tree climbing. The rock climbing rope are not so good for trees. Have fun, be safe.

@@totaratree99 muchas gracias! Por la información,compre una beal ginkgo 12mm,es una cuerda tipo A cumple con la norma EN 1891,se puede usar tranquilamente para trepar arboles? Saludos

No he usado el gingko pero tiene muy buena pinta. Consulte la etiqueta, sospecho que cumple con las certificaciones de la UE. Salud

Hope the translation makes sense. :)

@@totaratree99 no puedo traducir tu respuesta,que marcas de cuerdas me recomendarias mas petzl o edelrid? Son las que ahi disponibles en mi pais ademas de beal que es la mas accesible por su valor

Actually the biggest of this species. So yes good point. Is this the biggest Morton bay fig in the world?...is not so catchy a title.

Yes.

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks :)

Thanks mate. Working on a couple of new vids currently. Cheers :)

Very poetic. Nice one!

Hey that's cool. Still growing.
