    The carabiner he mentions is the DMM Ceros.
  • @naughtiusmaximus2905
    You make it look so easy. I get a panic attack when I'm 5 feet off of the ground.
  • @d.christopher479
    Nice Job! Thanks for taking the time to make these. Great approach for trimming healthy trees. No spike damage to the tree. Love it!
  • @Pqp-wy8kk
    Thank you very much. Greetings from Brazil.
  • @paulamoore1221
    You make climbing trees look so easy. I'll keep on practicing...
  • @philknight4450
    This technique is awesome. I used it when i was learning how to use spikes, kind of used the top line as a backup so i could try faster spike and lanyard climbs. Thanks for the video!
  • @mvblitzyo
    Ive done this style of ascent back in the 90's but was very new and I was just figuring things out . great video young man ... 30 plus years late, as a tree worker, I found u tube haha I really enjoy your videos thanks for really good information .. Joe
  • @dankotos61
    That's really cool man. I like that 👍
  • @hobbybaumpfleger
    Just tried it out today... And it works easier than I expected! And it is still faster then run back to the car and get the forgotten foot ascender ;-) Thanks for the idea! Cheers Reto
  • @barrybaker5502
    Thank you Frist time seen that ... I'll give it go ...
  • @tonyjackson8640
    Gonna try your technique this weekend. I’m a noob with no ascenders and climbing kills my elbows. This should help mitigate that👍🏼
