Glad there are crazy folks to go in the trees like that. I was amazed watching what I call tree monkeys do mine out front.

Going to move to saws work in action board.

Looks nice, what type of gear do you run in the tree?
My climber loves a fun job like that, when I got him a foot ascender and the other doohickey that uses the second foot to ascend this year he was in arborist heaven, he as been in the business for 12 years now and none of the companies around here use any gear like that.

Two of my climbers use a traditional prusik knot made with the pigtail off the carabiner. Other two use a fixed loop to form the prusik (friction knot ).

When you get done with the palm you need to clean your saws well as that mess corrodes in and around the chain brake and oiler something terrible.

I am just guessing but is a palm tree a thin bark, slippery-azz no spikes situation?
Here in Ohio we don't have any outside of arboretums and they discourage climbing in there :)
