Default Arbor gear

Hi all, I have been climbing trees all my life and have now decided to make it my profession.In the past i have borrowed mates gear but now its time to get my own. I have stumbled on the atraes sight and found alot of products.... Was wondering if there are any stores in the sydney area that specifically sells arbor gear. I will most likely buy online but would like to try on harness and look at some of the gear in person. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Sherrill Tree is a place to start.

Their catalogue is a good read even if you don't buy a thing.

Any Vermeer dealer can get products sold through Sherrill.

I saved about $700 last December buying from the USA at WesSpur Tree Equipment: Tree Gear and Arborist Supplies. Great service and decent postage. Check out the exchange rate first.

Happy to help you out.

We are Melbourne based though....but if you know what you want its no trouble to send it up to you, and free shipping available to.

I'm also an experienced climber and can help with questions & advice around what gear might be best for you, a service none of the others here or overseas can offer.
