    Why Throwline manipulation is still a valid skill w/ SRT/STS TREE CLIMBING

    Play Episode Listen Later Nov 12, 2023 28:22


    Seems that in past years of recent, the idea and skill set of throw line manipulation has become less of a focus for upcoming Tree Climber‘s. Even some tree climbers that have decades of experience have kind of abandoned throw line manipulation techniques. SRS/SRT tree climbing typically doesn't absolutely require the singling out of a specific or singular branch union or crotch. However, recently, while I was watching a colleague of mine, try to set his line, I realized that we might be working a little too hard, trying to constantly reset our line win with the mindset of using throw line manipulation. We might be able to just get a decent union with the first throw. This episode talks about some of the reasons why I feel this way  And some tips that might help you with your throw line manipulation, ideas and skills. #treeclimber #treework #treeservice #Treeremoval #Willowtree #powertracpt425 #centerarticulatingloader #treeserviceequipment #arboristequipment #compactloaders #affordableequipment #treecare #treecleanup #arborist #aboricultureCamera Gear (Affiliate linksDango Design Gripper Mount- https://amzn.to/3ZKXGjYGopro Hero 9 Black - https://amzn.to/3PN3moWGopro Hero 12 Black - https://amzn.to/3tkNYbQJobi Tripod - https://amzn.to/3Q3EevpPPE/Safety equipment: (Affiliate links)Phanner Protos - https://amzn.to/46gyKDvSHOWA Atlas 300 Natural Latex Palm Coated General Purpose Work Glove, Blue, Large (Pack of 12 Pair) - https://amzn.to/3rDAWWmArbpro Cervino Wood Steel Cap Chainsaw Boots - https://amzn.to/3F5rPkwCompact loader Equipment I use (Affiliate Links)DEESTONE Two 23x10.50-12 6ply Rated 23x10.50x12 Tractor Lug Ag Tire 23x1050-12 2 Tires Pair - https://amzn.to/3RKw0K02 NEW HORSESHOE 23x10.50-12 8Ply LRD Ditch Tiller Trencher AG Farm Garden Tractor Lawn Riding Super Duty Lug Tires Tubeless 23x10.5-12 ATV1 T148 - https://amzn.to/3Q487fdIf you are running, or looking a staring to run heavier equipment, here are a few tools that I have found super helpful to have around.

    Marketing is big business because it affects people. That's the reality of it. I am myself, and getting more and more into marketing for the arborist industry and appreciate how powerful that can be. Still, marketing also can create situations where we do things, think about things, and decide, What is best for our companies in our efforts while really not being as beneficial as we might've thought. While I do think that innovation and marketing has a important role in helping people, I do think that it also influences people to do things that they don't really need to do at times. So, in this episode, we're gonna talk about what Ryan Ferro, Levi Woodall, and myself discussed one afternoon and see exactly how this comes about. We're also going to talk a few minutes about reanalyzing in evaluating what we're doing. This is just the first part of a much deeper and much more complex conversation that elevated office podcast will be having with these very cool people that I had the opportunity to speak with.

    No matter how long we've been in the industry or been climbing trees, no matter how much experience we have a house. Skilled we are in our climbing techniques and refilling processes, there will be a time when we confront a situation that puts us on edge. This happened to me recently for the first time in quite a while. This situation created anxiety stress, and even a little bit of fear that I haven't felt in sometime in a tree. Because of this, I made decisions in a rushed manner, knowing full well that they weren't the wisest. However, because all I could think of was how sketchy the trees were, and how much I wanted to get out of them and have the job done, I ignored, obvious signs of poor quality, cutting procedure, and chose to take risk that if I had just taken control of my emotions and thoughts in that moment, I wouldn't have done. So this episode is explaining the conditions and the situation in which I was working as well as talking about why these decisions made me reevaluate and meditate on my need to continue to work on finding and taking control of situations where stress, anxiety and mental exhaustion are wearing on me. Hopefully this helps you out as well.#EricMcGrew #TreeFelling #HazardTreeRemoval #DangerousTreeRemovals #TreeRigging #BigTreeRemoval #DeadTreeRemoval #TreeClimber #ClimbingArborist #TreeServiceOwner #ExperienceClimber #TreeClimberFails #Truewerk #TreeService #NeverStopLearning #WeaverArborist #GapArboristSupply #OffTheHingeSupport the showwww.instagram.com/eric_mcgrewwww.youtube.com/user/ericjemandeselevatedofficearb.com

In part one of this Elevated Office Podcast episode, Levi Conrad and I go over a few ideas that may help you to re-evaluate your methods to prevent future liabilities.Levi Conrad Biography:Levi is a consulting arborist and former owner of Levi Conrad Professional Tree Care.
