Great footlocking speed.

do you know anything about professional tree climbing and arboriculture? doesn't sound like it koko. go do a search on arborist work and tree climbing competitions. dont think you would want to climb a tree with a chainsaw without a trusty saddle and ropes.

an asiatic talking in english is so funny , anyway ...

[Oldfrisian]

treeclimbing does not make you a arborist, cutting a tree down from great heights is a more respectfull skill then to show how fast you can become upstairs doing nothing there....

[usaexcellent]

is he speaking english or what . i dont understand any word

[thexmanjdd]

koko, you are the idiot! What, do you climb trees with spikes? If so, you are stuck back in the 70's. For tree trimming or rec climbing, modern Arborist climb the ropes to ascend a tree, not scale up the tree trunk. Idiot!

And you smell like a Pork Pie!
