Dynamic vs Static Cable Stytems, in the upper canopy Im interested in your thoughts on this. Im going to back dynamic systems and this is why,
Reasons for using dynamic bracing systems as opposed to static;
By installing a static cable into the upper canopy (2/3), this is removing the natural crown movement and stress distrubition.
By installing a static cable into the upper canopy (2/3), this massively reduces any adoptive growth/reaction wood growing to strengthen the weak union. I realise included forks will never be as strong as normal forks.
With out sufficent felxability in the canopy, wind energy is unable to be distrubited effeciently. Stresses, instead of traveling throughout the tree and down the trunk into the ground can be multiplied/isolated through the cable.
Have you ever been up a tree with another climber and shaken a tree to see and feel how it reacts with static cable systems installed? Its obvious whats going on.
All i seem to see here is guys backing the static systems.....
