This Casey dude's a tough one indeed. I got my hand slapped the other day...first time sinse treeco gave me an infraction, way back when I first joined.

Oh well, I guess I probably deserved it. It was some funny stuff though

alright. here's the deal.

the 2 of you need to meet and just punch it out. is tman still seething? maybe a 1 on 1 on 1 match? just a good old fashioned honest to goodness fistacuffs to even things out. nothing dirty, no ball grabbing or head kicking on the ground. a gentleman's argument settled like men. and of course it must be filmed and put on AS for the rest of us to see. at the very least you owe me that.

i mean make a day out of it. after the go round you guys can go de-vine that plane tree you got going on nc.

think about it.

Now thats what I'm talking about!

I dont know if you saw where I suggested TV and Jomoco put on the gloves? that would be another good one. Heck, maybe AS can make like a friday night fight thing out of it. :hmm3grin2orange:

i think distance dictates that this bout can't happen but it would be epic. couple tree grizzled buzzards circling each other.

but these 2 could for sure meet up and film this one. and get a job banged out to make the day profitable. win/win last time i checked.

Not too far if AS does like a pay per view deal to cover travel expenses.

But yeah, I say these Pensi boys do it up! I know the dan's gotta still pissed about being called a pansy.

I was for some strange reason thinking about shark fishing today and came up with the (currently incomplete) idea of using a steel leader on the end of my climb line to make it saw proof. Well a lawyer would call that "saw resistant". Problem is, it would work fine on the dead end but on the live end (friction hitch side) it would obviously be no good. But hey, it would in theory reduce the chances of a saw induced fall by 50%. And maybe there actually is some way to do it on the hitch end...

Just thought I'd see if anybody'sever thought of this or tried it.

And yes, another way to prevent a fall is to not hit the line with the saw in the first place. Figured I'd say this now to filter out 50% of the replies right off the bat

When your climbing a multistemmed tree your going to be pulling alot of slack throughout the day.You dont need a heavier line. What do you do when changing your T.I.P ,this rigid steel leader would get hung up all the time. This isn't the the dumbest idea you have had though. Lots of guys have been killed or injured from cutting there climbing line.
Your biggest variable will always be the tree and they aren't getting safer anytime soon.Just tie in twice and quit asking so many questions.

We went from steel leaders to...this? I don't get it. I don't know who all these names are either.

 

[canopyboy]

Careful setting yourself up with statements like that....seems some people here are out to get ya.
