I love these systems and I met Greg Good at a Tree Care convention, but didn't buy a GRCS. I don't think I would have even a tiny bit of influence with other winch/bollard makers.
This stuff is fascinating. |
I have spoken to Greg Good and have sent him some pictures of the Grcs in action, he loved the chain extention strap too and said he will send a free 10m strap for us to use, i may admit that we use some of these purpose built tree equipment to their limits

,but you can see why by the size of these trees.It gets the old heart pumping when you are right on the edge,everything has to be spot on and extra cautions taken,the right rope,the right ground crew,the right cuts........etc.Sometimes i do aerial rigging too,but i like the ground crew to do most of the lowering as i can set up the second lowering rope or move to the next limb.Tree Machine we are all in the same league, because we all love doing the same thing each day,a small tree can just be as challenging as a large one.Thanks now,Keep up the good work..........
