  • Dan runs through various options for anchoring your stationary rope climbing system in the canopy and the pros and cons to each system.
    SRT - Stationary rope techniques / Single rope technique:
    Within the Arboricultural industry the term SRT describes a climbing system when the climbing rope anchored in the canopy or at the base and the climber is ascending & descending on a stationary/fixed rope, meaning the climbing rope is not moving when ascending/descending.
    The rest of the SRT series is available on ClimbingArborist.com

    I leave the throw line connected to the tail. You can use throw line to pull rope back instead of leaving a very long tail. This method is especially good when you do not have rope long enough.

    Brilliant! I really like your videos. They are very helpful and I like your way of instructing. Clear and on point. I am not an arborist, but I am a gardener and do a bit of climbing with Ddrt in largish old fruit trees as it is now. I am longing to climb our oak at my job and remove some dead wood but I will wait for an arborist friend of mine to do my virgin climb together with him as to feel safer and learn some tricks of the trade from him. Safety first is the way I want to go and I wouldn't do the climb without some hands on instructions and help.

    Do you still use this last system shown here? I really love this SRT series you did, its so informative. Maybe you could make a short update video now after 5+ years where you summarize what has changed since this series in teams of gear and techniques you use frequently.

    I'm old school and had always been very comfortable with DRT. I'd be willing to try it but since I'm retired from climbing it would just be for recreational use.

    In one of your other videos (with comments disabled) you tied an alpine butterfly knot very quickly and efficiently. I'd love to see a demonstration of that technique. I use the "wrap around the hand twice" technique and it it does seem a bit awkward if not inefficient.

    I know it's quite easy but the bunny ears figure 8 drives me nuts. Hard for the new guy. Just like the clove hitch is so easy it took me weeks to master it every night. Lol Excellent teaching videos! Thanks for your time.

    Like the last idea to be able to freely advance. Great on if your coming from DRT to try SRT.
