Dealing w/ bad rope angles while climbing trees SRT Redirects w/ Jared Abrojena: Arborist skills

Jared at Academy Trained explains how and why we use redirects when moving through a canopy. One of the key benefitsof SRT climbing is how easy it is to redirect the primary climb line for safer work positioning.

There are many different ways to redirect, and this videos demonstratesa few common, simple methods.
