brings back bad memories of all those crazy pine trees i climbed in louisiana after katriana.

[AntonovAleksandr]

Respect. But what really see the whole movie?

A lot o guys can learn from this climber.

See how efficient, and EFFORTLESS his steps are, no big stepping, showing off,just quick, up up up, pull and flip, up up up, repeat.

Doing it this way he uses as little energy as possible to get up the tree, saving his energy for the real work to take place once he gets up there, Smart Man. nice technique there real nice.

You can tell this boy did this all day long every day, day on day out. Tall Respect.

Yeah i must say its a good video and demonstration! glad you like it :)

[Brandflugan]

Yes I agree but it looked pretty risky with the rope just below where the tree was cutted down at.

But I dunno
