Crown off, then over she goes.
Today we took down a big Lombardy poplar. We dismantled the crown first, then used the winch to pull the remaining stem over.
I’ll share more photos and a closer look at the setup tomorrow.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Perfect fit. Stays put. Rope runs straight through with zero braking. Feature or bug? „EXPERT USE ONLY“ I guess. 🙃
I’d just repositioned in the tree while on my lanyard when I noticed my Akimbo 2 had wedged itself into the Rock Exotica carabiner against the DMM swivel. I still don’t know exactly how it happened. I hadn’t loaded it, and it was already jammed tight enough that it took some real effort to free it.
I tried to recreate it later and couldn’t get it to jam anywhere near as hard as it did in the tree.
Climb safe. Check your setup every time you reposition, before you put your weight back on it.

Behind the scenes 🌳
Here’s how we handled the heavy timber on this beech removal—and why the site dictated every move.
The tree stood in the neighbouring garden, around 1.5 metres below ours, right next to a concrete wall.
The opening in the fence was so narrow that we had to quarter the large trunk sections just to get them through.
The area with the chip-filled bulk bags was our only safe drop zone. Everywhere else, there were structures or underground rainwater tanks beneath the lawn.
Limited access. Heavy timber. Every move planned.

Drop logs onto bags full of debris to cushion the landing, much better option than negative rigging if the site allows for it. Shout out @arboristberlin 🤙🤙🤙

This is how we dropped the large trunk sections: onto four bulk bags filled with wood chips from our chipper.
Between drops, we shook up the bags to loosen the compacted chips and restore the cushioning for the next section.
I do this method quite frequently. One piece landed a bit too far to the left, and this time—for the first time, unfortunately—we sustained some minor damage to the terrace.
but I still consider it a good, fast, and safe way to remove the trunk quickly.

A closer look at the setup behind the transport.
For this beech removal, we needed to move branches out of a tight garden into an open lowering area.
My DMM Keanu trolley ran along a near-horizontal, slightly downhill track line. This allowed us to transport the branches across the garden, then lower them in a controlled way onto the log trolley.
Most of the time, I had a daisy chain attached to the Keanu, with the branches clipped into it using my speedline slings. Those slings became the branch attachments for this cableway setup.
To see what was happening under load, I installed a LineScale 3i load cell in the main track line. The highest recorded peak was 6.6 kN — the tension measured at that point in the line, rather than the weight of the branch.
Limited access, sensitive planting and underground rainwater tanks made moving material through these gardens a challenge. This setup gave us a way to move it through the air to where we could handle it.
Swipe through for a closer look at the trolley, the attachments and the load-cell setup.
What part would you like to see in more detail?

Here’s why we built the system.
Two gardens on a slope, with a 1.2-metre height difference and a concrete wall that cannot be seen in the video between them. Underground rainwater tanks beneath both lawns. Garden plants, houses, and very little room to work—with both owners understandably concerned about protecting their properties.
Our only way out was a small opening in the fence of the upper property, barely wide enough to get the timber through—but not the branches.
So we built a near-horizontal rigging line with a DMM Keanu trolley to transport the material from the tree to the open landing area. There, we could lower the timber under control, straight onto the log trolley, ready to wheel it four metres to the chipper.
Different site.
Different solution.
More detailed content is coming!

We stopped dropping.
Now we transport!
One of the most unusual rigging setups I’ve worked with in Berlin.
Stoked for more!

Don’t wait for the best moments in life.
Go after them!
The Castleton Highline is more than a simple line between two rocks. It’s a piece of art. The red sandstone towers, the vast, Mars-like desert landscape, the incredible height and exposure. It’s hard to describe how all of this comes together to create something truly unique. Something worth flying halfway around the world for.
Getting the 500-meter-long setup in place is a challenge of its own. An hour of scrambling up loose scree, gaining 355 meters just to reach the base. Then 120 meters of trad climbing over four pitches of cracks and chimneys. Hauling heavy gear and ropes. Long days in the desert sun, with no shade and barely any wind. It takes strong climbers, a mountain of gear, even more rope, and a team you can count on.
One day to climb and install the fixed ropes. One day to rig the line. Two and a half days to walk it. Another day and a half to take everything down.
We spent a night on top of the Rectory and eventually took the line down in a storm. So much effort went into making those possible.
For the first few days, I couldn’t really connect with the place. Everything felt unreal. Lifeless, hot, incredibly dry, intimidating. But slowly, I started noticing the life around me. I began to see and enjoy the beauty of Moab, and to feel at home in a landscape that had felt so unfamiliar.
People often ask me why I walk highlines. Why step into that exposure? Why push against the most natural instinct we have up there—the fear of falling?
On this line, I found my answer. Getting comfortable out there takes time. You learn to trust the line, your balance, and yourself. At some point, you stop fighting your fear, and something else takes its place.
There was no fear. No tension. Just beauty, my breath, and silence.
After everything it took to get there, walking felt effortless. Like flying.
Walking that line was the most peaceful moment of my life.
Endless thanks to my wife for letting me fly, and to Kamil and the Polish team for trusting me, putting up with me, and inviting me along. Thanks to Gaz for the incredible support and these insane photos.

Hate it or love it!
The Akimbo divides opinions. As for me? I just bought another one.
My old Akimbo is worn out, so it’s time for the Akimbo² to take over.
Same concept: compact, midline attachable, and usable for both SRS and MRS. Getting the settings right for your rope, weight, and conditions is part of the deal.
One welcome update, especially when replacing a worn-out device: the Akimbo² has replaceable components.
Now it’s time to see how the second generation holds up in everyday tree work.
Team Akimbo or something else? What’s your go-to device, and why?
If I dont like it, I go back to the rope runner 😅

After work today, I spent a little time volunteering at a local kindergarten, helping to build a Benjes hedge.
All the branches came from fruit trees I’ve been caring for throughout the week, giving the cuttings a second purpose while creating a little habitat for wildlife.
