Intro to Tree Climbing: Basic DDRT/MRS Technique
Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 08. 2024
- This video provides the very basics to start climbing trees without spikes using DDRT (dynamic double rope technique) also known as MRS (moving rope system). This climbing method is a great alternative to using spikes when the objective is not tree removal. Using spikes for pruning trees is considered UNETHICAL as it causes unnecessary damage to the tree.
Do not attempt the techniques shown in this video without the right equipment. Learn to climb at your own risk.

Thanks for your help Good job
Cool idea putting the petzl open-ring on the zigzag, I gotta try that
A notch quickie has a similar benefit and its easier to install. The ring open is very hard to get in there. I prefer the ring open because the quickie is steel
Wow. Genius with the biner. Mine has the 2 closed rings so I’ll throw a biner on the large ring and see how that goes. Not as nice as your set up I but I think it will work.
Good video
Very well done
Nice video, thanks for making it. I see a lot of videos on climbing. Everyone has their own technique that fits them best, which is understandable. What I don’t see a lot on is how to properly wear a climbing belt and adjust it and items that would be best to have with you. You touched upon it a little when you readjusted your bridge, good tip there.
Thabks for the comment. I plan to do some more instruction videos on climbing and system comparison vids as well. I hope you subscribe! Be safe
@@blueoakats I am subscribed, thanks.
Do you have a video on making your saddles bridge adjustable?
All you need is a CT rollnlock or a wildcountry ropeman or some equivalent. Very easy to do. Check out my video on SRT technique for another view of how I use the wild country ropeman
