package from tree stuff.com I was gonna open it up and in this video I was going
to go through it there arb Pro Evo twos boots and then a Stein ascent system
and then a replacement blade for my silky saw so I've been climbing all along
old school and then this is the transition the new school so let me
unbox it and then I'll go through how the new system
here's my Stein ascent system my new Zubat blade, broke that off of my saw
unless I don't know we could go or so dropped it out of a tree and broke it
here my Arb Pro Evo 2 climbing boots so I'll give these a give them a try
right now and show you how they work so that's what I'm looking at today he's
transitioning from old school to a new set of Arb Pro boots and a thigh knee
ascent system in my new Evo twos my Stein the ascent system this is it here
I haven't actually used this before I'm really curious to give it a try really
like Stein products everything I've ever used it there it's just worked really
well and then the other thing that came was that zu bot replacement blade so let
me see how I used to climb so again I've been doing tree work for so many years
the way we started was we just spur up everything and either prune it or cut it
down those days are long gone in a day I got my first big shot that's pretty
exciting but I stopped doing tree work a few
years ago full-time actually more than a few years ago and now I teach high
school woodshop there's been a wonderful change but since I've taught high school
wood top I've always done trees on the weekends and during the summer the nice
thing about that is that a lot of my students in the high school woodshop
work near my tree service the thing that's so cool about that is my quality
services in the area are all old students of mine so like today
fantastic tree service called tree safe Brian Bixler if you've ever seen mr.
Biggs's YouTube videos are fantastic he's an unbelievable climber he was the
old student of mine and today he brought by a bunch
and incense cedar logs for the woodshop so we're gonna mill those up take a look
on my channel channel is top song named after a chainsaw tool I invented and
you'll see those logs at tree safe delivered so this is the way I climb for
quite a few years here I'll just tie in this way I can't quite remember with
this knots called I know when this came out this was revolutionary but now I
know it's old-school that goes in there
and then the way I just climb well used to climb is that I did have a cinder on
my foot I just pull myself up then move that a send her up that's kind of the
only way I've been climbing the last few years but now I'm gonna try this new uni
ascender you get a few different things I think how this thing works
it clips on both of these the Evo 2 goes like that but the height of your knee I
guess I'm short legs I think this ties in here
you see most people use like a chest harness I think I'm just gonna clip it
well the other way as some people do this this is kind of a cool technique
Brian showed me is to clip it into your flip line and put your flip line over
your shoulder camerawoman is my phenomenal daughter and maybe I'll try
this this is how he does it that way you can kind of adjust the tension on it
it's a nice whack in the chest so I think that's set up for you yeah this
seems pretty high oh one thing on this dying neat thing is that it locks in
place of the rope can't come out and then this safety pulls it put the rope
in now there's nowhere to get the Rope out without releasing the safeties
there's my older son pulling up right now hopefully won't drive over in my
rope who wants to get in a tree work as well just having it
all right I don't I get my new boots dirty so I'm just gonna swing out over
here oh oh sure like that's super cool
so is the new gear holding you up so you walk and then you pull yourself up with
the other boot
ready set go
like it fantastic I love this system these are Pro Evo tea beats are
beautiful really comfortable much more support than I expected much more
support around the ankles a great by the Stein system also I love I give it five
stars great review I love that silky zu bot pull saw I love my Stein knee
asunder took me a little while to get in my system but I feel like I will I love
my evo cheese I'll probably take the tag off I'll give back after a day of
working in them I guess my next step forward is to replace my old school time
points so I'll get this style then first and the most replacing all right so if
