Not sure I understand the question. Once a tree is falling in any felling operation it continues until it is down? Never heard of anyone trying to deliberately stall a tree in a felling operation.

How would you stop the tree from falling once in motion? Seems impossible to me unless you set up a massive rigging. Not trying to be smart just trying to clarify your post. Thanks!

very interesting. I've never seen it before.I am curious about how it would work on a hardwood here in the Northwest as opposed to a more stringy wood like palm or even the cottonwood and poplar . But I think I can see it working well. Good vid and thanks for the info. I learned something new today.

Will this work safely on a tree that is dying and has some punkiness?

@pinehillprimitives1
It is pretty much the same as a conventional scarf or notch, the only difference is that the centre has been removed so a wedge can slide in. It is therefore no different to felling a tree which is equally as hollow as far as the strength of the hinge wood goes. If it is punky will the wedge lift or just get absorbed by the "punk". If you think it is too punky then rope it. You could cut the scarf and slot, bang wedge in and see if it is working or not

anyone tried this on medium sized (16''dbh) northern hardwoods or conifer (norway spruce/scotch pine)? it's interesting, but palm and hardwoods are not the same animals.

@ShawnDRichman
Really, so are you suggesting that the techniques for felling palms are different to felling trees? Because if that is the case then all books and instructions need to be dealt with as I have not ever seen any difference. The principals remain the same and many people have felled trees using this method (read comments here even). The only real issue with this demonstration is the back cut should have been a little lower, that's all.
